I can honestly say bp has never passed my lips DC. However a bottle of French bubbles was much more successful even if I could not afford petrol for week. 

I had a selection of quality wines that never failed to induce romance. In addition to Mateus Rose, favourites included Ben Ean Moselle, Cold Duck and Blue Nun. All within the budget too. Suited all locations including confined spaces and spillage was not a problem. Although, I was surprised when one beautiful young student was less than impressed and opted for Stones Ginger Wine.

Jesus Ernie, you've named some classics in that lot. Back in the day, I tried them all for nefarious purposes but Stones ...... FMD ... we used to have a swig at 3/4 time on really cold days.

Can't say that it improved my footy though!

I’ve been a member of DL for many years. I don’t understand what this thread is about and at this stage I’m too afraid to ask.

Don't be too concerned Smokey - even the [censored] who have been posting for years don't know what it's about!

' Take a pair of sparkling eyes

mmmm delish but my alcohol of choice in the early days was, sadly, Brandivino.

Yep the old Stones used to warm you up at 1/2 time.

 Don't forget the Bacardi and Coke for our fairer sex in those day. Never failed!!

For all affectionadoes of classic Prog rock

Check out a King King Crimson video on you tube Live Meltdown Mexico 2017 ( Released in 2018) and a BRILLIANT song featuring 3 Drummers called "INDISCIPLINE"' Be prepared to be BLOWN AWAY!! pf

I think I speak for all 3 of us when I say not everyone has a spare 6 hours to listen to it.

Can I recommend an obscure Swedish band from the 60s/70s named Harvester and their excellent album Hemat.

Not joking.

Seriously good anthemic Sauna music.

Arrh Biffen! You have this wonderfully arcane knowledge of music.

Pity you have no friends to share it with!!!!!

Hey Pickety-poo! It’s me! You said you’d call me the next day but never did. I guess you must’ve lost my number. Clearly, writing it on your forehead with a sharpie wasn’t enough. So I had to resort to joining this site and pretending to be a crazy Demons fan. At least, the Demons fan bit is pretending. I’ve had my wedding dress picked out since that magical night when we got rather ‘conversational’ and every time I hear ‘Fox on the Run’ I think of you, and not just because it’s a Sweet song. 

Remember this… it’s NOT stalking unless and until I’m served with a restraining order. 

P.S. I love what you’ve done with the front of your house.

I am bemused. What is the rationale and meaning of your posting name?

They’re lyrics from a song by a band that I very much like. These lyrics, and the band’s name - Mercury Rev - conjure up thoughts of heavy metal or a similar genre. On the contrary, this band’s music is so sweet and lilting it could put a baby to sleep.

Another reason I chose this username is that I have a problem with indecision, and I figure that not being able to make up one’s mind is akin to staging a war with oneself. 
I bet you’re sorry you asked. 🙃
