...Anyone For Champers...?

...Great Fun at Tony's (my brother) last night, playing on the Wii with the rest of the family - there were 10 of us - the youngest, Krystal (7) was so good at all the games she wiped the floor with us all...

Tony cooked four different concoctions for us all to enjoy and opened plenty of wine - he's a bit of a connoisseur when it comes to red wine - I'm not 'into' red at all, even though he's always trying to convert me. I must admit that it's all 'plonk' to me & this SO annoys him every time I say it - which is the reason for saying it, of course ;0)
I am starting to develop a taste for champagne though (only the 'good' stuff, of course) - this is also due to Tony. He gave Dave & I a bottle for Christmas '06 and OMG it was delicious...I can remember it floated & danced (see I've been reading 'How To Describe' it) down the throat and there was none of that burning sensation or shuddering as you swallowed it - Yeah! we've all been to 'that' wedding, haven't we???
So we took a bottle of the bubbly stuff to Tony's yesterday and sampled it - it was OK but not that great so I've told Dave
..."That we'll just have to keep buying it until we find 'The Perfect One' again"...
