just knocked on my door and gave me a bottle of wine. This was to apologise in advance for any noise they might make on Friday as they are having a birthday party for one of them. (Invited me to drop in, as well.)
Isn't that nice?

Fair enough. And as you indicated, increased noise on a Friday evening is not unusual. Enjoy your free booze. :D |

I thought they were resolutely patriotic?? Maybe they are... Which is why they gave you the South African stuff and kept the French stuff for themselves. ;) |

You yourself said you thought they were patriotic. If so, it's perfectly logical - and patriotic - for them to keep any French wine for their personal consumption and gift any non-French wine they might have to non-French individuals. |
