A; hello mike! Would you like a drink? B: no, thank you. I had too much to drink yesterday evening. I had a bad hangover this morning. My head felt terrible. A; were you celebrating something? B; yes. It was a friend's birthday party. We drank all kinds of things-beer, wine and spirits. After midnight , we were even drinking cocktails! A: it's a bad idea to drink a combination of alcoholic drinks. You should stick with one for the whole evening. B; I know, but it was a celebration, you kwon? I don't think I've see you drunk. A; I usually only drink beer and I rarely drink more than a few pints. B; you are a sensible drinker. Anyway, I'm not going to drink any alcohol this evening. I don't' want another bad hangover. A; let me buy you a soft drink then. How about a coke? B; yeah. That's a good idea. I heard that coke was first used as a medicine. A; rally?... barman!... a large coke with ice and lemon, please…thanks. Here's the money. B; are you going to the wine tasting tomorrow? A; yes. I thought it might be interesting to learn a little about wine… B; …and taste a few! There will be wines from several countries and an expert to give advice on which wines are good and which ones are not. A; yes. I'm looking forward to it.
