[QUOTE="Outlier, post: 2722153, member: 550046"] As far as wine is concerned, what works for me is drink less, drink better. Chugalug doesn't let us taste the complexities of a good wine - you don't need deep knowledge (I haven't) and the taste is contained in sipping with lips and tip of tongue. Have a glass of fizzy water beside your wine and chug that. I can make a small glass of red wine last 2 hours with ease. If anyone wants to comment, it's their problem not yours. It's your business not theirs. Smile enigmatically and move the conversation on. Proper friends have your welfare in mind not their insecurities, because those who press anyone to drink (once upon a time that happened with smoking too) are thinking about themselves even if subliminally. BTW I find a bottle of wine at home stays good for several days if tightly corked with one of those thingummies you can buy to plug the bottle, so it isn't just us who can save the rest of the bottle for another day - there's clearly quite a market of like-mindedness. By the way - well done for tackling this! [/QUOTE]
