Quite a few years ago (last century), I was flying from Bordeaux to Dublin and had a present of three fab bottles of wine for my dad. I was taken aside for a strip search changing in Brussels.
Putting my clothes back on, I knocked over and smashed all three bottles
And a pâté.

Although, having a glass when you are doing the actual cooking does require half decent wine

Yeah, I mean, you're putting garlic, pepper, herbs, mushrooms, and meat in it, and heating it for four hours.
A 70c tetrabrick of Belarusian table wine will do the job.

Whatever your heritage is in the context of your post it's utterly irrelevant. There are dual British nationals in every EU state, yet you seek to single out the Anglo-Irish community for selective, discriminatory treatment. That’s wholly indefensible.

The fact that they are Irish citizens is relevant. Bringing Britishness into it is denigrating Irish citizenship and an insult to everyone that values it.

The coherent argument is that British citizenship is irrelevant to Schengen rules. It’s as valid to say “there are 2 classes of redheads those that get 90/180 and those that get free movement” the fact that they have red hair is irrelevant.

Years ago, I was given a Bordeaux that cost as much as the monthly rent. My then partner had some friends round and used it for mulled wine because it tasted 'a bit strong' 😱

But you know, a bit like gin in tonic, if you make your sauce with cheap bordeaux, can anyone taste the difference?
I reckon not.

Well, I would suggest that maybe Mr Tarantino nicked it from the Book of Ezekiel.
I'm guessing that book is out of copyright.

The Labour response, is neither fish nor fowl, and to be scorned.
Do read this. Chris is laying his vengeance on the Brexitists, who put "gall in my food and gave me vinegar for my thirst".
