Meanwhile... Back at Base

[narrating a report from a wine-tasting festival]

Johnny Morris:
Mind how you go. For this is *not* the way to drink wine. It is prudent to take wine with meals, for wine without meals makes fools of us all. It encourages the reckless, depresses the melancholy, excites the hysterical, buckles the weak-kneed and initiates you into a blood-brotherhood that can only lead to a heady disaster.
