a 5 litre box

You dreadful heathen, Rich. :rant:

:lol: Hey, beggars and all that. We've done our best so far but where I am there is only one retail outlet for booze and it has been closed for all of Ramadan and will be closed until Eid finishes - whenever they actually decide that is.

We have stocked up to cover the period but most things are twice the price except this strangely palatable boxed wine from the Antipodes they knock out.

To be fair, you can't call me a heathen unreservedly. I have turned the guys in the villa on to Harvey Wallbangers having bought the Galliano and vodka. We also have Bishops Finger; Peroni; brandy; scotch; some excellent Chilean wine (in bottles!); some splendid Aussie Riesling (also in bottles!) and bloody Kingfisher in 500ml bottles weighing in at 7.2%.

We also have a few "heathen boxes" of both red and white left. :twisted:

The box is a superior method of wine packaging.

Except when trying to impress a lady (which happens fairly rarely), I never get wine in a bottle: had a few too many corked bottles... screwcaps are OK, but you still get some oxidation (though any excuse to polish off a whole bottle will do, I guess).
