Unfortunately, I've just run out of Perrier and won't get any more until next month (I've just polished off my 2nd litre bottle of the evening ... and damn I need the toilet).

Fortunately, I'm not such a high-falutin' snob as Raptor_Bob - tap water suits me just fine, so I never run out.

Unfortunately, while the water quality in my region is supposed to be absolutely amazing ... some of the copper pipes need replacing in my house because they're starting to flavour everything
(that and the fact that it isn't sparkling, are the only reasons I don't drink tap water regularly).

Unfortunately, we don't have any clean glasses at the moment, so I have to wait 30 minutes to get a drink (dish washer's going at the moment).

Unfortunately, the tap water still tastes vaguely coppery (although this should be sorted very soon).

Fortunately, my brother is a plumber (really!). Shall I send him to Sheffield for a visit?

Fortunately, I rediscovered my bottle of Pear & Apple Schnapps and my bottle of Ouzo (zomg this stuff is lethal, I swear ...) that I brought back from Austria, so I'll survive 'til tomorrow (when I can buy some more Perrier ... unless the Ouzo kills me first).

Unfortuantely, the combination of pear and apple sounds... wrong.

Unfortunately, do you really think R_B will be drinking Ouzo in 'moderation'?

Fortunately, following my earlier discovery of how lethal Ouzo can be, I don't drink more than 1 glass in a whole week (I think I'd be crazy to try).

Fortunately, you won't be able to post whore for a while.
Lol, don't worry Xy-baby, it's called bending the rules, not breaking them.
