What is it with some people’s obsession for buying bottles of champagne on a night out? Do they just do it for show? I reckon the answer will mostly be yes to that question! I was seeing this guy recently who knows that my usual drinks involve malibu and pineapple, amaretto and coke, sweet cocktails, baileys, fruity pear cider and midori, however he thought it would be a good idea to purchase a £70 bottle of champagne when we were out last and put it in front of me whilst saying “I’ve bought that for you”. It goes to show he was having a ridiculous moment where he wanted to show off and didn’t put any thought into the fact I don’t like champagne and I’d told him that a good many times! What a waste of money, and I had to sit there pretending to drink a glass of it whilst trying not to gag just to be polite!
