I'm on the wagon (ish) so just having a yet another bloody lovely cup of tea smile

Used to be a lovely chilled dry white wine but one has to make sacrifices in search of the body beautiful!

Orange squash - the one they serve at Wimbledon (are we allowed to advertise?)

Tea, to revive me after grocery shopping.

More than ready for a G&T but will have to wait until my GD gets here for dinner.
She may have something with lemonade or not, but at least I show willing and wait for her.

Glass white. (Sea bass for dinner)

I'm awash today. I had two mugs of coffee at breakfast then met a friend in a cafe and had three cups of tea. This afternoon I met another friend and had another large coffee.

Excuse me, must just dash to the powder room! grin

Glass of red, no excuses!

I have had my dinner and now waiting for my husband to finish washing up (I cooked) and make me a mug of tea.

SueDonim Wed 07-Aug-19 19:19:35

More tea. :swish swash: grin

DH Magoo and I are still suffering from shock after I was viciously attacked on social media ( see Argy Bargy thread in Chat ) earlier today.
We’ve finished the Scotch/ white wine/ Baileys / beer and Tia Maria so have been forced to open the brandy we got instead of an Easter egg this year. Four glasses down and the trauma hasn’t receded one little bit ?

DoraMarr Wed 07-Aug-19 20:07:55

Oh dear Merseybelle.
I’m drinking a nice chilled glass of Chilean rose.

Greyduster Wed 07-Aug-19 20:30:32

A large glass of Oxford Landing. Followed, probably, by another......

kittylester Wed 07-Aug-19 20:38:07

Second glass of chilled white - its dh's birthday so have to celebrate!

NanKate Wed 07-Aug-19 20:40:01

It would be rude not to join your DH Kitty. Cheers ?

grannyqueenie Wed 07-Aug-19 21:24:05

G & T, cheers ladies and Happy Birthday to Mr Lester !

seacliff Wed 07-Aug-19 21:30:40

I'm just on the nice cool water.

Joyfulnanna Wed 07-Aug-19 21:48:37

I'm on honey and lemon in hot water.. Soothing for a sore throat

lynx Wed 07-Aug-19 21:53:59

white wine! Usually have a glass every evening now retired, wouldn't on a work night!

annsixty Wed 07-Aug-19 21:56:53

I would also have loved to say happy birthday to Mr Lester but I am now in bed and have only just seen this so I will do it tomorrow.

Barmeyoldbat Wed 07-Aug-19 21:57:36

Water from the tap.

SueDonim Wed 07-Aug-19 22:03:32

Sparkling water now. I'm going to be up and down all night, I think. confused

lemongrove Wed 07-Aug-19 22:10:41

A small china mug of hot peppermint tea , as I am a prim and proper laydee and the hour grows late ? would much prefer
Something else.

Minniemoo Wed 07-Aug-19 22:11:39

Cava. At last something decent

MissAdventure Wed 07-Aug-19 22:23:00

A mug of tea.
Ah, lovely!
It took me ages to get up and make it as I have a bad case of lazyitis, so I was really thirsty.

lemongrove Wed 07-Aug-19 22:26:23

Oh dear MissA ...that can be nasty, do hope it clears up soon
( I am a fellow sufferer.)

MissAdventure Wed 07-Aug-19 22:27:32

Nobody knows the troubles we have, eh?
