‘We’re sleeping late but were not lazy we’re getting older but were still crazy. I’m so glad that I have these friends of mine’ – Bowling for Soup
Established on my hen do in York in 2013 ‘Partners in Wine’ have taken it upon themselves to sample what Newcastle upon Tyne (and beyond) has to offer 4 Prosecco addicts and report back our findings. It’s a science really is what it is.
One of our favourite games to play in a bar or pub that has an extensive cocktail menu is Cocktail Roulette where we close our eyes and pick a cocktail blind. Only rules are you HAVE to drink whatever you choose however you do get one veto ingredient that if the chosen cocktail contains that, you get to pick again. Yep, we’re THAT crazy!
