    I always put mine upright in the fridge on the morning Im going to drink it. That way it's cool enough and settled. My cork just gives a modest pop and my fizz stays in the bottle :D

    How to drink fizz....chapter 1
    There's no need to get arsey with the cork (as men do) you haven't won the Grand Prix guys :p (it's not mandatory to use 2 thumbs) ......chapter 2

    I'll stop now :o :rotfl:

    It was effective but kind of took the fun out of it

    Well good for a gadget person I suppose? But I'm with you I'd rather heave and moan over a tea towel :o :rotfl:

    OH and I went to a funeral in our younger days. The wake was in the house and it was a bloody grim affair!! Obviously not par takers of alcohol. They had wine but no corkscrew (back in the days before screw caps) OH and I constructed a wine cork getter outer from a screw and a piece of string :o we spent half an hour opening the wine.......and when it was opened we found out it was dessert wine :o:o:D:rotfl:

    We won't expect to see you surface before tomorrow evening then! ;)

    I couldn't do the amount of driving you have had to over last few weeks. Good not much longer but hope you have something else lined up when it finishes.

    I'm much better today thank you. :)

    I'm planning to sleep for a week, regain my sanity and then hunt for work. Actually I have a few days in June at Taste of London (not a !!!!!! event Dotty!), but nothing else :D I've worked out so far I've driven just over 11,500 miles in 7 weeks :eek:
    Well I'm going to share a choon with you all this evening.
    It's been playing on repeat in my house and my head for days now

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkbebJbvu_A I've had this in my head all day (don't listen with children around or you absolutely love the James Bond theme tune, it's all you'll hear!)

    I have never heard of this. In my day there were a Jay and a separate Silent Bob and that was the right way for the world to be. They were in one of the funniest films ever made. :)

    Dogma is my favourite, didn't find Clerks funny at all :o

    Morning all :wave:

    Great film, it's a shame hand-shaking doesn't take place often in my office :rotfl:

    (To FC too) I'm also loving this game of guess who, just froze it on iplayer and I think I've clocked it. Can we asked questions? :D

    Morning mad squad,

    Nivea pearl now showing on sada as £1.18, still £2.20 on MSM but for how long? And another good glitch comes to an end.:(
    I do try to keep up but sometimes life gets in the way.
    I'm just a penny short of a pound. Peace and Love.

    I've joined the 5:2 club cos mrT made me eat 1p chocolate.

    It's good that's she's fine....even if it is for now. It's so hard to watch your parents suffer, whatever age they are :(
    Please take this in the way that it's intended :) old age is a bu**er but it's also a blessing many of us don't get to experience. Both my parents died far too young :(:( Life is so bittersweet sometimes. I hope your mum remains as well as possible for as long as possible and enjoy her whilst she does :):heart:

    Thanks FC, I know exactly what you mean. My mum is 91 and was deemed well enough to come out of hospital yesterday. Earlier in the day I heard that a lady of 64 who went to the same aqua fit class as me had passed away a couple of days before. Sometimes it's all very hard to make sense of.
