Some time ago I was given a bottle of champagne. My wife only drinks on special occasions and a whole bottle is too much for this blogger to consume in one go. We decided to save if for the day of rejoicing that will be held when Tony Blair is dragged screaming from Downing Street. The bottle is not yet in the fridge but has been brought out of storage ready for a quick chilling when the wonderful day dawns.
Recent events suggest that this may be sooner than I had thought.
