Port- Don’t Drink It Ladies and Gentlemen!
On Friday night I felt a bit down, so I sat down with my mate Steve Ballard and drunk my first bottle of Vintage Port since my record breaking hangover of Boxing Day 1992 when I sat up with my Dad and did exactly the same stupid thing aided by about 3 kilos of that hallucinogenic drug called Stilton.
