When in France......

I 'chatted' to a couple of local men in the supermarket yesterday after watching their choice of wines.

They both assured me that the 5l box of Merlot was not only a very good price but a very good tasting wine. We 'chatted' for some time and they made it quite clear that this was the box to buy. With food, without food, on it's own or with a meal, with friends or on your own, this was the wine to choose.

The only problem is........EC regulation 5012 13 states that no opened boxes or bottle of wine can be taken from one country to another within the EU, so this will have to be finished before we return next week.

Not a great problem I think.
