How to open a bottle of wine - the french way...
I'd like to see it done with Champagne

Goes to show nothing will come between a Frenchman and a bottle of wine.
Wonder if it works with plastic corks? I think not. It's difficult enough getting those out with a corkscrew!
Off to see if I can use this technique on my bottle of ketchup.

Condtioning: Twibute Clone

If I only known that trick when I was younger, it would have saved a lot of "corks pushed into bottle" incidents.
Fermenting:
Conditioning:Pale with Styrians
Drinking:Cascade Pale Ale, Summer Lightning

Although .. I once saw a 'show' in Amsterdam where a girl sucked the cork from a bottle. Imagine if she'd seen this first, it may have ruined her career.

Did anyone try this? Did it work???? Remember the viral video of how to unlock a car door with a tennis ball....?

Heard that it does work although I've not tried it. Seems That you can also do it by wrapping a towel or tee shirt around the bottom of the bottle. Don't try it with your elderflower champers though! :o)

Imagine the mess, black eyes and broken windows?! I'm no expert by ANY means but I know enough to keep my toddler, Devlin, away from the bottles - hence they're in a locked garage. Little sod would find a way to drink it otherwise.... (I jest! Don't get Esther Rantzen on my case.)

He must have been confident. He was wearing a white wool sweater!

Wait 'till he learns to pick the lock! He's probably already been online to find where he can get his own tankard and engraved quaffing glass!
When I watched the vid I imagined that the bloke was saying 'I bet those stupid English people actually believe that this is real. I'll wear white so they have even more confidence in me'.
:o) My language learning skills are sadly lacking.

I always imagine roflcoptering being the act of laughing so hard you end up flat on your back with your legs pinwheeling in the air, like a ROFLcopter.... see?
