All this talk of units has me worried. I was very depressed by the recent news that over 22 units a week takes us into hazardous drinking territory. With all this global warming, wines are getting stronger and one bottle of wine now constitutes 9 units, so that’s under two and half bottles a week. This is not good news any week but very bad news this week. We have the rugby world cup final on Saturday which might take up a few so I need to pace myself but worryingly tonight I have a Burgundy dinner which will be attended by 6 members of the wine trade at Ransome’s Dock. We are all bringing a bottle of red and a bottle of white. If we get through that lot (and we have never failed before) that’s 18 units taken care of. That would have left 4 for Saturday if I hadn’t been out to dinner twice this week already…
