I’m Not Pished

I’ve been tasting wines. Quite a lot of wines. I got through to number 28 (although I think the numbering skipped four or five along the way).

I’m not sure I can remember the good ones. I think there was an M&S Gamay (VDP L’Ardeche, £3.50) that I thought would be nice chilled. I liked a Co-op Western Cape Shiraz Rose (good value at £4.50). And the straight from the freezer M&S Darting Estate Eiswein was delicious (£13 for a half bottle).

But though I’m happy to have tasted every wine going, I have a feeling I missed out on a good story about a vegan friend killing a bird because I was too pleased with myself for being able to say ornithological when I was already on number 12.

  1. Well the story was that the cat brought in a nearly dead starling last night & I finished it off. I’m assuming you don’t want the details.

  2. Ooh, bad pussy cat. I’m not sure I do want the details, but I can’t help wondering – how do you kill a starling? I nearly had to kill a fish once, but a friend brought it back to life before I did it with a brick.

  4. It closed its little eyes really slowly it was very sad. I tried to expalin to the cat that we were much happier with her when she successfully stalked hunted and killed a small plastic flowerpot last week. I’m not sure if she understood. Or cared.
