Ah yes, elderfower champagne, the very thing.

Maggi's useless fact of the day:
Elderflower champagne is said to "fizz up" every year when the elder comes into blossom.... not that any of us would know that for sure, it's usually been drunk long before then! ;D

Maggi ... you would obviously drink 'Young-a-flower' champagne or should that be 'Youngerflower'?  :D

Johnny, almost entering yout 8th decade. That should make you feel REALLY old. ;D
When I get to 70 I plan to say I'm 80 then they'll all think "My word, she's looking great." Or maybe they won't. ???

I think any interference in a persons drinking should be against the law. >:(
Here's to you Leslie. ;D

I trust there will be no interference in the consumption of "falling down juice" at the Wyllie household in Dunblane today as dear Jean, "the Wyllie Wifie" celebrates her birthday.

Many, many happy returns of the day, Jean!!
Lots of love from your Chums!  :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
