Last night

I took stock of the fact that I shan't be able to enjoy a tipple for the immediate future, so I decided to splash out on a bottle of vino and a cider. They lasted me before, during and after dinner. By then I was in an advanced state of conviviality, so strolled down to the boozer for another pint. For a moment or two I was best friends with someone I'd never met. I don't suppose I'd even recognise the person if I ever see them again.
