Happiness is thinking that the Nacional 1967 in my wine fridge belongs to AHB only to find out last night that it doesn't and it belongs to me

Moses, the US distribution is an unresolved business! I would rather have you tasting it at our winery. Sooner or later you have to come here!!

.."bidding for a bit of cheap tut on eBay, and accidentally bidding £99 instead of 99p..
.. and then winning it for 99p.."

...opening a bottle of specially chosen port the day before your birthday so it can sit in the decanter for 24 hours before you drink it at its peak only to find it is irrestistable and half the decanter has gone.
