Lisa is a bad influence

Wine, at six pounds a bottle in the Bay Horse, until 7pm, is a recipe for disaster. Especially if, at 6.55, someone comes back from the bar with TWO bottles to accompany the two empties on the table. No amount of sensible and grown-up shopping during the day - for perfume, for Valentine's gifts - can counteract that booze. Another bottle with a Croma dinner, some gin and tonics, and more wine back at Great Stone. Is it any surprise that I ended up sleeping on Kate's sofa? I blame Lisa.
