Sainsbury’s soft drinks aisle Hornchurch earlier this morning - not too bad.

What are you drinking tonight?
- Thread starter Mottie
- Start date
Salvation Army annual get-together. (They’re not allowed alcohol).
I went to Lidl yesterday and would you believe they had no fresh orange juice with bits at all - three varieties of orange without, several different fruits, but not a single bottle of orange with juicy bits. Disgusted!

FWP......
Soda water with a splash of lime. Designated driver, again, at a wedding.

I prefer that, means the wife is much more of a pleasure to be around for a few hours till she wakes up again in the morning....
Bless you!
Finished off the Merlot we started last night and started on some regional Lisboa Vinho tonight. That’s the last of my six bottles for £19.99 offer from Naked Wines. 14% and 13.5% respectively. The dog's jealous. I might go again under a different name……
A Sauvignon Blanc with our Friday night fish stir-fry from near where I stayed when working in South Africa . 12.5% on Mrs Motties orderz. 
A Beaujolais tonight with my steak. Thick cut Rib Eye for me and a fillet for Mrs Mottie.
Great that you're selflessly doing your bit for the local economy.There's no end of excuses for sloping off to the local for an hour or two of R&R.
Hope you're soon recovered, getting a fever in these times must be more than a little worrying.
Turned out that I had pneumonia and sepsis... The hospital stuck a tube in to drain the icky pus off. Then decided that although the bucket that I had to carry each time I went to the loo had 1.5L of goo in it, I needed to have surgery, and then a second drain.
I am in the pub at the moment after finally getting back to work after 5 weeks of no income but annoyingly limiting myself to no more than 2.5 pints. Ironically, the pain killer is opiate based and it/they mixed with alcohol leads to shallow breathing, which can result in pneumonia.
BTW, these days when you are in hospital you get a covid PCR test every day, and when they moved me from one hospital to the other I had another MRSA swab.
Once the pain wears off and I am oxycodone free, I am to get hammered... As things stand, that will probably only take about 5 pints though...
Oh well, it could have been worse. Thank god for the NHS and pain killers.
