You have the right idea, #FJ.
I'm off to do some Christmas Shopping - by the end of today I may feel the need for a glass or two of wine myself!
Waits patiently to see what Bernadette is getting me for Christmas!!! Lol
Dearest AmazpunKaty,
I scoured Southampton for a suitable gift for you and finally settled on a lovely bottle of Waitrose best Red. After an epic journey, consisting of late trains and a mysteriously disappeared bus, I finally arrived home.
Keen to make sure the wrapping of presents was not left to the last minute, I pulled out the bottle of Red to wrap and consign to the vagaries of the Christmas Post. Imagine my consternation to find that the cork of the bottle of Red had brazenly popped itself out of the bottle of its own volition.
Sadly I have to inform you that, after extensive reading of the Rules and Regulations for sending gifts through Royal Mail, I found they had a rather inflexible rule regarding opened bottles of alcoholic beverages being sent via the postal system.

I will try again next year.
Yours in sorrow,

AKA you were so dehydrated from the extravagant shopping trip the only beverage available was the one you bought me. Therefore to save you becoming ill. YOU JUST HAD to drink it
. Lol
Revokes my book of puns gifted to Berna'hic'ette....I'll be sending you this page out of it though -see spoiler below- (It was also the best pun I could find suitable for the situation lol)
HaHa, I think I have a little bit more respect for my liver than to treat it to a bottle of Red in 15 minutes. Fortunately the train took 25 mins, so ample time to enjoy it!
