    Hmm I don't know, I was never a fan of wine until I discovered my love of PINK LOL I am known for my rose addiction!! A girl started talking to me last week about which one/region/year I prefer and I was like "to be honest I only started drinking it because it was pink and then I got used to the taste":rotfl:


    See I like wine. I link pink wine too. The recent trend for rose has been excelelnt for th quality of rose, which is to be pleased about.:D

    I think I read my fact in a Bill Bryson book. But if it makes me sound intelligent, then I'm happy... ;)

    If you're in to facts, easy reading and being really well entertained then Bill Bryson's 'A Short History of Nearly Everything' is a great book. I'm sure proper scientists would find a lot wrong with it, but as a page-turner it's second to none. I loved it.

    You're clearly intelligent. Only because that's one of my favourite books too and I'm a scientist (:eek:)

    Another good book is "Why don't Penguins feet freeze "

    I am off to London in a mo to meet up with cousin from Cnada who I ahven't seen for 18years. We look very similar so it will be odd.

    Then we will push and shove (in a Londoner kind of way...apologising after each shove) our way onto Waterloo Bridge to get a prime viewing spot for freebie fireworks. Are they on telly?

    If I see a camera I will wave and grin.....look our for the older laydee with the choppy blonde cut and hideous(but warm) grey parka and furry gloves.

    pause as Oh comes in to LOS---*

    Dam me OH now just popped into kiitchen and asked have we time for a quicky before we go...I mean?....Blokes? You couldn't make it up.

    I hope all have a great evening and I hope WE all have a great NY as 2009 was something else. YKWIM?:D

    LOL i was going to say "it has done wonders for your typing" or something equally as smart/snide/belonging on grabbit boards but didn't want you take the wrong way. I am usually so pernickity that you can tell I am drinking by the fact that not all my "I" s are capitals!!! yes I am that sad!
