"What did the grape say when it got stood on?"
"Nothing, it just let out a little wine"
She laughed. I told her she can use it and she said she deffo would.

100 years ago everyone had a horse and only the rich had cars.
Now everyone owns a car and only the rich have horses.
The stables have turned!

I remember drinking with English ladies on a few occasions. Let me put it this way: my Russian training wasn't in vain.

Whenever Americans would hear that my wife is Russian, they would often ask if she drinks vodka. It always bugged her to no end until I told her to reply "No, do you drink moonshine?".

My Russian girlfriend at the time and I ran into a group of Russians celebrating a wedding at a Russian monument in Berlin. I wanted to take a shot offered by the group but she didn't let me. And as far as I remember it was mainly men who drank (a lot) and not women.
