    BTW the reason for making 60 bottles of wine at once is it saves the delivery fee if you order two kits. Also it is not much more faff to make two barrels at once.

    Crawling out from the wood work to set you a challenge of lowering the wine intake! The Floppies clearly need to increase ours, I think we average about 6 bottles a year!
