champagne

Whisky - Talisker 18 y.o or Highland Park.

Champagne - buy Nyetimber instead (English sparkling). I prefer it to standard champagnes like Moet or Veuve, and it's a little cheaper too. Available in Waitrose, and decent wine merchants.

Cheap Champagne is (IMHO) not worth the bother - at £15 or less you'd be better off with Cava, Cremant de Bourgogne or something New World, like Pelorus from NZ.
Still buy a lot of it though. Our local bottle bank has been on danger money for the last 3 weeks or so.

The Co-op do an excellent Cava for £4.99.

I'm promising myself a £100 bottle of Krug the day Thatcher dies.

Good idea - you've got to have something decent to kill the pain.

She is a pain, but I'm not sure he intends to hit her over the head with a hundred notes of bubbly.

My daughter worked as a waitress in a hotel a couple of years ago. Maggie was staying and my daughter served her a couple of times. Apparently, she was pretty gaga. So, I don't think you will need to wait too long to crack open your 'champagne socialist' Krug.

Well done - but you ain't got me new sig. yet - and no Googlecheating this time!
