I've pushed in with my thumb most times, the liquid spurts past the sides when you do that.

Not needed the trick since I settled down and bought "stuff" for the kitchen.

Last time was fishing, with an ambient bottle of red wine.

Push the cork right into the bottle. Hold it above your head. Tip the bottle up side down and drink it. Wink

Thank you guys! I went and bought a cheap corkscrew thingy.

Ew, that shoelace idea was kinda nasty. All my shoelaces are so dirty!

Anyone knows if 13 % alcohol is too much for a wine (Cabernet)?

It sure packs a punch. I'm figuring that drinking just a glass (0.2 l @ 13 %) is like drinking a beer (0.5 l @ 5 %). Also I'm afraid the dark red-black colour will stain my teeth. I might stick to beer after all, not sure.

Also is it bad if the odour is a little like vinegar?

Conclusion: if you're in this situation and stores are open then just find and buy a corkscrew...

I rode my bike, BTW. Never too drunk to ride a bike.

Cheers!

You can be too drunk to ride a bike.

Cracked some ribs that way, few years back.

Sorry, I'd mistaken you for a bloke.

Sounds like a good result, Charlie.

I guess the wins and draw came before the loss in which case you will have been in contention by the last round. Bad luck to draw the NM but they all tend to be tough by then.

I got less than halfway into the first book. I thought it was rubbish.

"Nervous?"

"Yes."

"First time?"

"No, I've been nervous lots of times."

I see you're still suffering and I'd send you some Xanax if only it wasn't illegal. Frown
