Baaaaaad influence

Posted on May 19, 2016May 23, 2016 By admin

That little owl is a bad influence. He “liberated” a bottle of wine from a tapas bar, which was opened with a shoe along the way to another tapas bar, then got reaaaaaly pissed with other bottles of wine. Many bottles of wine.  Many many many bottles of wine. And unexpectedly prawns. Good prawns. But wine.

It started like this:

But rapidly devolved into this:

He will feel it in a couple of hours when the first session starts up. But it was worth it.

Edit: The owl felt better than he had any right to expect the following morning. The breakfast buffet and lots of water probably helped.

Sadly, I’m here for work so I didn’t partake in the champagne, and the chocolate fountain messes with my head for breakfast.

The views from Lavaux are spectacular. It’s also fascinating how the same Chasselas grape can have so many different tastes. The terroir and inclination of the hillsides makes the difference, as does the amount of sunshine reflected off the lake and the amount of heat retained by the terrace walls in the steeper regions.

Redbull next to the vodka, tonic next to the gin, coke next to the rum. Simples!

Quote of the day

She'd become a governess. It was one of the few jobs a known lady could do. And she'd taken to it well. She'd sworn that if she did indeed ever find herself dancing on rooftops with chimney sweeps she'd beat herself to death with her own umbrella.
--(Terry Pratchett, Hogfather)
