Sounds like a nice Friday evening. Hope you have luck with the lottery. I['ve bought a tickets a couple of times but with no luck. I agree politics and beer don't go together....best to just enjoy a quiet Friday evening dreaming about winning the lottery :)
Sadly, I didn't win this time.
Beer and politics definitely don't mix. Although in the 1920s and 1930s it used to (I guess there were big problems back then).
