Beer in the morning and have a couple bottles of Chateau Neuf De Pape that I ain't sharing with anyone, whilst I cook the dinner, a nice Barolo which I ain't sharing with anyone for dinner, the mother in law can have the merlot I have in the cupboard.
Barolo ,...don't blame you for not sharing, gorgeous wine.
Bucks fizz for breakfast, then prosecco, red wine and cocktails provided by me and my brother. Oh, and I've a bottle of whisky for me and Remy Martin for him!
Freixenet cava...(£6 why wouldn't you) for bucks fizz ( though I usually opt out of the orange juice for the second glass) then a whisky coffee and so on into food prep with a duval and it's all a bit of a blur after that..
Got my usual collection of poncy drinks in for Christmas day, spending far too much in the middle of November
However, will probably just stick to some Bols, LBV and a decent Sherry pre lunch, a good quality Barolo with the lunch and some Remy Martin Champagne Cognac post meal.
If I'm still alive, then the Taittinger will come out in the evening

You don't see any sherry/port ads now at Christmas...well I haven't/
well apart from @Addickted and a few other survivors of the first world war, no one drinks it anymore.
That's a bit below the belt!! I occasionally partake in having a nice vintage port with cheese after a meal - sometimes with and sometimes without brandy. Can't remember the last time I drank sherry though!

Sherry?!!!!
3 young ladies here as well - then another different three on Boxing Day.
I'm sure it'll go down well and it's not as if it doesn't last.
Christmas Day without a LBV or a Remy Martin? Philistines.
At least @bobmunro appreciates the finer things in life. What's the point in producing some of the Worlds finest alcoholic beverages if you are unable to get you children to actually try them and your philistine sister to add lemonade to a £50 late bottled vintage port.

I stopped eating Foie Gras 8 years ago (mainly due to @KBslittlesis and @Arsenetatters) so let me have my little pleasures.

We're half Irish.
It's just a bit "I wouldn't go in the 9B classroom after PE if I was you, stinks of Aromatic Virgin and Lynx Africa."
But in the pretentious worlds of marketing and "craft" gin I bet they are sucking themselves off to that "witty" bit of genius.
