There's a bottle of champagne on the table next to the laptop she's typing on.

My critical evaluation indicates:

She also looks like she's eating too much.

In the late 90s on a contractors night out, we drank the restaurant dry of Dom Perignon, and had to slum it with Moet.

Nowadays, I prefer a £20 bottle of a good red than a £100 bottle of champagne.

i agree she's poor, Moet is generally p!ss water in a fat green bottle, a bottle of Bollinger is what she ought to be drinking, i blame the credit crunch
