Ended up stopping in a travelodge for New Year and I'm damn well going to make the best of it. Happy New Year!

  1. I was going to report this as low effort, but you have actually thought this through and put effort in. 8.5/10.

  4. Problem is usually that when the water’s high enough to keep the bottle cool, be it milk or wine, it’s high enough to make the bottle float and the swivel plug automatically opens itself… I miss proper plugs!

  6. Big up Chapel Down. They make some of it 1 mile from me.

  8. I got engaged 41 years ago with champagne in a bidet and a bucket of KFC…

    Just celebrated our 40th anniversary so it worked

  9. NYs is all about getting drunk and watching shit TV. Go for it.

    Jools Holland is basically life.

  12. Lmao I have a bottle of Chardonnay doing this very thing

  14. Fun fact – the term ‘wet your whistle’ was coined in 1776 by General Michael B Swigin in Hastings. He was trying to cool a bottle of champagne and the plug kept coming undone in the Travelodge the batallion were posted in, so he plugged the hole with his whistle.

  15. Is that ice in the sink or glass for the placebo effect?

  16. Wrap it in wet paper towels and putting it in the fridge cools all bottles of wine faster.

  19. I’ve used the small paper bin in the room as an ice bucket before… Happy New Year 🍾
