Apparently a phrase from the bible, quoted by my good self to a mate last week, after I'd offered the two bottles of wine he and his wife had bought to some unexpected guest on the table of ten people at a Gala Dinner, (a table they had arranged or booked).
Anyway, having had a flea in my ear for doing so I cleverly bought a single bottle of red, mainly because I knew this would make him feel guilty, and in any event he's been such a good mate generally over many years, and then low and behold, later on the the boss of the two guys who had been drinking his wine, and ejoying everyone's company they'd enhanced by their presence, bought two more bottles of wine for everyone!!!!!
Hence my new phrase, "Casting your wine into the bathtub", (and seeing just how much flows back to you in return!).




Anyone else had a similar experience?
