Thanked: 1587No, I am just a believer in balance - the brain cells that wine takes away should be offset by the brain cells a book can add For every glass of rioja you drink Gugi, you need to read 3 chapters of Cervantes to offset the cell loss; it is worse with Vodka - for every shot of vodka, you need to read 15 chapters of Dostoevsky!!
No seriously, that really looks like a good deal on wines. I miss my rioja. Australia can be really quite parochial when it comes to wines - we tend to mainly stock only "ours" in the major outlets and you really have to search quite hard to find a bricks and mortar store that sells something "foreign" or "exotic" like a rioja or a retsina (another favourite of mine, although I acknowledge it is an acquired taste and not for everyone).
Online certainly seems the way to go for the good deals. Books as well actually.
