'Tis the season... to be ambushed

[Marshy]

I was minding my own business at work :H... and one of the bosses came along and plonked a bottle of champagne on my desk as a Christmas present.

Didn't have time to refuse it, and anyway, that would have been a bit churlish.

Fortunately, I never liked champagne anyway, so it's no temptation but I don't really want to take it home. Can't leave it here. What to do? I think I might give it to a homeless person on the way home tonight. Or is that encouraging people to drink who might have a drink problem

What's anyone else doing with their unexpected bottles?

Thats what I would do Marshy, give it to a homeless person.
I just give mine to Mr Starts :-)

Hi Marshy,

I'd give away to the next person who didn't know my bosses.

I would give it to a friend or like Jackie said someone who doesn't know your boss.

I'd put it up in the back yard and use it to dial in my pellet rifle. Or maybe use my potato bazooka on it.

I would give it to someone you know who drinks,as well as it being a present it would show them how serious you are about your own sobriety,just a thought

Unfortunately, the powers-that-be in Britain don't allow us to have guns. Spoilsports

How about a catapult? That might be a fun project to figure out and build. :H

'Re-purpose' it as a gift for someone that you are ABSOLUTELY SURE doesn't have a drinking problem. Drop it off on the way home.

Marshy, could you christen a ship?? Or, perhaps a new car??? Just trying to help!!

Guns are illegal in Britain??

Yup. We had two mass shootings when they were still legal - one in 1987 and one in 1996 - and they were banned because of those. We seem to all muddle along even though we can't shoot each other though

Kate - I was thinking about christening a ship! I work right by the river, but there's never a boat around when you need one..

Well, I left the champers in a spare drawer at work last night (I don't have a drawer coz I'm freelance :H). I'll conveniently "forget" that it's there for a few days. I might take it with me to my friends on Xmas day - just didn't want it lying around at home for a week.
