3/24 please for today, Thursday. I’m a bit disappointed in myself as last night I had some wine, not planned but because there was an open bottle in the fridge. Strangely I can cope with lots of opened bottles of spirits being in the house and beer, lager etc but have learned that open bottles of wine are a constant pressure. Wine in the wine rack also can usually be ignored. Next time I’ll insist the opened wine gets taken home by someone.
