I also reread the thread and am sorry to have inserted non-germane stuff, so have asked a mudelf to remove my posts that weren't on topic. If you're re-reading this you don't need those reminders.

I'm not drinking wine now because of allergies, but I'm not drinking much of anything else now because it precipitates some of the ankle swelling that tends to happen to me in hot weather if I haven't been drinking enough water. Swollen feet and ankles are uncomfortable, and are my body's way of telling me to drink more water.

Good luck, un-named Guest.

SRS
