So I am cheering myself up with a 2006 Rioja Reserva 😆

So STW anyone else had one of ‘those’, and how are you cheering yourself up?

2005 was a better year.

Drinking Fishoek from that south Africa, after proving, yet again, for probably the 19th year in succesion, that waterproof garments and 3 hour road rides in the fine rain that wets you through result in being as wet as an otters pocket.
Goretex, wet.
E vent, wet.
Any other bloody waterproof, wet.

Oakley nanoclear though, remains the dogs danglies.

2006 was on clearance at the local supermarket £14 down to a fiver!

Very nice for the price mr Don Simon 😉

Which supermarket, where?

2007 Rioja here, and some kedgeree

Which supermarket, where?

Asda, Totton, Southampton! Bought the last 2 on the self though.. 😳

Yup. One of those days.
Just finished a 2006 Rioja Reserva.

Don’t trust anyone called “Don Simon” when it comes to talking about wine.

And yeah, had one of “those” days, public holiday and spent all day working.

Having one of those months…..have spent the evening trawling t’interweb for car insurance quotes, without the aid of alchohol.

But tomorrow morning*, a new dawn will herald a new, better, more positive day for all of us.

*Pending disasters, I will be fit enough to start commuting again 😀

Very nice for the price mr Don Simon

Hope you enjoyed it, I do like a good Rioja.

Just about everyone I speak to is having ‘one of those weeks’.. roll on the weekend!

(Las Moras Pacha-Mama Torrontes 2009 from the Co-op – organic and hangover-free…)

it’s a full moon. full moon is always “one of those days”

2006.! Its got to be out of date by now.

I’ve had one of those days as well.

Cheered myself up by having a massive row with the wife over dinner. 😕

I’m kicking the dog round the room after he trashed my mag, and curled one out in the sweet spot of a kicker I’d just dug..

I’ve been reading some research which suggests it may be ‘one of those decades’ 😯

Ta for the heads up on ASDA Rioja, just bagged two bottles for the weekend, it’s going to be a messy one.

Lol, 2 bottles of wine does not constitute a messy weekend! A messy Tuesday night maybe… 🙂

just bagged two bottles for the weekend, it’s going to be a messy one.

from 2 bottles? eh?

Ha, I agree. The two bottles are for a quiet sit in the corner after it all kicks off.

Cheered myself up by having a massive row with the wife over dinner.

I choose to spend the whole evening bickering with the other half, I like to spread my fun out…….

Well, I can report they were nice 😳 and I am in no fit state to post!!
