EU don't like his bottle sizes - well surely we should just tell them to ***k off. (That is of course 'cork off').

Answer 1

I know this winery well, family live not far, perhaps he could write to his own MP and get them to protest on his behalf, it's all absolute b ollocks.  

And a cracking one in my paper today,  local bus drivers are being told that they cannot drive for more than 30 miles without turfing the people off the bus because that is the mile limit they are allowed to drive that is a considered safe for them.  So if you want to go further you must get off bus, and change buses, even if your journey goes on more than 30 miles. Bus drivers are getting round it by having people get off bus, drivers then change the route number on bus then passengers get back on, is this barking or what.  Ruling from Brussels is sheer madness.

Answer 2

It is a bit mad - like how in Sweden these little wild strawberries everyone likes to eat in the summer are "not big enough" to be proper strawberries so they can't be sold or some such nonsense... total lack of common sense.

Answer 3

Don't know. at least you said it was cork off, not.......... soak off or tuck off, luck off, etc.
