What's Ancient Egyptian for "Cheers"?
News that a crate of 5,000-year-old wine (undrinkable, apparently!) has been discovered in the tomb of the improbably named Pharaoh Scorpion I of Egypt prompted me to think of songs that have been inspired by this magnificent brew.
Avoiding the loathsome (Mistletoe and Wine), the banal (Summer Wine), the irritating (Red Red Wine) or the schmaltzy (Days of Wine and Roses), I came up with these two, both corkers!
Pekhret!
