I'm thinking of making home-made wine...oh hoh...

Hi everyone, I hope you're having a great weekend.


I'm thinking of making home-made wine, so I've been reading up on it online... (yes I am aware that rhymed and it was unintentional). My father used to make home-made wine and some of it was pretty good (some was like drain cleaner and revolting and gave you the urge to wince and stick a leg up as you shuddered with the God-awful aftertaste).


I'm joking with the following names I've come up with but it's given me a few ideas for a story in the future possibly lol as we authors have a tendency to become inspired by just about everything around us in our day-to-day lives and we find inspiration everywhere!


Here's a few funny names I've thought of. I could write a farce-type comedy about it all, we'll see. There are many more but here's a taster and you may munch on a piece of cheese on a cracker or two while you read my wine list if you feel inclined to haha:

  1. Chateau a la Bumhole I'll make: 30%-proof, it will dislodge denture plates at ten paces and will give you the urge to dance on tables and sing in a foreign language, it'll be that strong.
  2. I may produce not Jacob's Creek, but Up The Creek Without a Paddle But You Won't Care As You'll Be As Pissed As a Fart, 35%-proof, featuring a rather fetching skull and crossbones on the label.
  3. Or what about instead of Blossom Hill, I'll make Bloody Hell; 50%-proof, and it'll make your legs quake and your eyeballs spin around at 20 degrees, then back again!
  4. Or the ultimate: Instead of Moet & Chandon, I'll create Mighty & Christthat'sawilddynamiteofadropofwineandit'smakingmynosetingle!


I will research and this lot will keep me busy for a while. If I do go ahead with making wine, I'll update on my blog with photographs, ooooo! 
If I produce a not very nice wine, I'll look something like the cat's dragged in I expect...
