Bummer on the Port...just have to take your own then.

Actually it's good to take a week easy or off a few times a year, even the pros do. It gives the body a chance to rest and actually comes back stronger later.

I make a point of not drinking port for at least three quarters of every year just to enable my body to cope. It is important to give your organs a rest and not over-indulge in ones passion otherwise trouble could be around the corner.

I achieve this by not drinking Port for a minimum of 16 hours per day :devil: :lol:

That must be Scottish math, as 16 is only two thirds of 24. :wink:

Oops! This demonstrates the pitfalls of doing math(s) during the time of year (day) when one is drinking Port :lol:
