Friday lunchtime is fast approaching. This week at work it has been very taxing and busy.

The countdown to the weekend has now officially begun and that means I will be able to have a few bottles of my favourite wine.

I normally drink a few bottles on Friday, then have another couple on Saturday and then just one on Sunday. Unfortunately on a Monday morning I have to be up bright and early ready for another busy week at work.

Even though I have been drinking for a few years now – actually far more than I am going to let on, I am still am a bit of an amateur when it comes to choosing my wines and I still get it wrong sometimes. My confusion is if I should be serving a red, white or rose.

Now for Friday night dinner, I was thinking about serving up a nice piece of steak. To accompany this I think I should be choosing a nice Cabernet Sauvignon. However my predicament is I am an absolute lover of any sort of Shiraz, so perhaps I should get a couple of bottles of this.

I am organising a nice buffet at my house this Saturday as we are having a family party. The only problem with hosting the party at my house is that knowing my family they won’t be bringing their own wine, so I will have to get extra supplies in. Cava is my absolute favourite wine, so I will probably buy some of this. My dilemma will be should I get Rosado Cava or Reserve Cava, or perhaps, as it’s a big event, I should just get a case of each.

Sunday night will be just the two of us, and I think it will be a good idea after our weekend of heavy drinking to just snuggle up on the sofa with a nice cup of tea.

Well that will be another weekend done and dusted. It will soon be Monday morning again, which means the alarm will be buzzing nice and early ready for another stressful week at work.  Oh roll on Friday.
