Local French wine is lovely, I just don't like the stuff in the shops here. I do love a Sancerre or Soave.

I rarely drink anything but Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc these days.

Odd thing, ain't it... you meet people one at a time, they seem decent, they got brains that work, and then they get together and you hear the voice of the people. And it snarls.

I know a man who taught his dog to play the trumpet on the London Underground.
He went from Barking to Tooting in an hour.
