    Thanks!! It seems people can get on without higher degrees.

    Phil, people have been telling you that for weeks, as far as I can see.

    I've just listed my car on Ebay :eek: scary.

    - and I have a slight problem...
    I'm double booked tonight - thoughts please ...

    1. black tie dinner - OH has obliged us to this one.
    2. good friend's (she got me through my PhD) milestone birthday party.

    I'm thinking of going to black tie first and then on to friend's by 9:30. Seems rude to both though :confused:
    de do-do-do, de dar-dar-dar ;)

    I prefer red but white is probably more appropriate for the weather (well, it's fairly nice down south today)

    If white, I would suggest either a chardonnay or sauvignon blanc (you can't really go wrong with either).

    Red, perhaps Spanish rioja?

    Edit: Do you have wine at home or will you need to get a £20 note changed?
