3105 Tinker's Laws

In the usual spirit of helpfullness :) I would like like to recap the first 2 laws of the Forum..

Tinker's First Law: this states that all threads should have some reference to Puglia, whether is relevant to the topic or not. Unfortunately there have been some eddies in the time/space continum recently, that have distorted this fundamental law. Normal service should resume shortly.

Tinker's Second Law: whatever the topic some people will feel morally obliged to contribute and post something, regardless of whether they have the faintest clue what the thread is actually about.

For this thread, the 1st Law has already been proven, and the 2nd will, no doubt, be proven shortly ;)

quad erat demonstrandum :)

Now Andy, the reason is simple - the stuff in the screw top is probably so foul (and cheep :)) that drinking the lot is not a serious option. ;)

[QUOTE=andy s]Actually, when paying about £10 a bottle it's quite good. Quality is not the problem. I'm convinced there is some deep lying psychological reason for it. Does anyone know the word for 'phobia of putting cork back in a bottle'?

Will test this theory tonight and actually try and do it.

yes, its called being tight fisted.... drink the bottle and sod the cork.:)

It's actually called Michelle's Law. I feel morally obliged to sink the bottle. This is based on the premis that tomorrow is another day and a new horizon, hence, a new bottle to celebrate. you get the idea;)

[QUOTE=andy s]I have just had a trip round morrisons with my youngest boy who has clarified the phrase in question.

As we approached the drinks section he said: "I know!!! You want a nice bottle of red!!!"

I asked him why he said that and he shouted at the top of his voice: "BECAUSE YOU'RE AN ALCOHOLIC - YOU'RE ALWAYS GETTING DRUNK!"

Nuf said I think.
