I have my 2 cups of coffee to kick-start my day and then it is tea until aperitif time, unless I get dragged into various watering holes by the lovely people that we know in Accrington. Having said that, a pint of Thwaites bitter or Lancaster Bomber is indeed the drink of the God's.
You are so right Barrie.......most times I would choose a cuppa, but on a recent away break with daughter, I really enjoyed a glass of Gallo Zinfandel....just the one.
I have realised that at my age(62......I'm not precious about my age) it takes longer to get over the excesses........and if you have to suffer to enjoy something, then it takes the shine off it a bit.
