  i can assure you that i am as far from being teetotal as anyone could be.
  
  i make sure i am home and dry and do not make a fool of myself in public like mr reckless.
  incidentally you may be aware that during the long nights of the last war churchill was alone in his office with his secretary next door who brought him reports of casualties.
  in her last days she made her diary of those days available, apparently she poured him a large brandy every evening, never more that half of it was drunk.

  there was a chart in the mail today showing the full drinks menu at the commons, wine was about half what it would be in the eight bells.
  i am trying to decide who would make the best drinking companions, m.p.s or the regulars at the eight bells.
