I didn't drink for ten years.. not because *I* had a problem.. (at all). but because of the people around me that did.
Nowadays they are both gone.. so I do whatever whenever I like.. its quite refreshing actually..
Sometimes I MIGHT have a glass hot mulled wine in the evening.. (in the winter)
In the summer my friends come around for lunch in the garden and we might drink some icey vodka and cranberry.
Sometimes my friends come here for dinner and we get ABSOLUTELY hammered playing my (glass) game of Tequila snakes and ladders (wearing tiaras) and playing truth or dare.
Sometimes I might fancy a honey and ginger Martini.. or an apple one.. or raspberry or a durrrty one (a la Sinatra)
On a cold night by the fire SOMETIMES I put Baileys in my coffee.
RE: Suitable punishment for their crimes
Arnold Schwarzenegger.. for his RUBBISH acting..Playing the SAME character in every film he has every been in. #
I would punish him by making him take acting lessons twice a week for the rest of his life.
