@AbsolutelyFabulous I was 14 and my gran died the year before. My parents and I went to Lourdes the year after. At Charentes they bought a bottle of cognac. They didn't drink. I kept it and drank it in memory of my gran. The song has a lot of meaning for me

@Thinkerbell That's three friends are sitting together over wine. One by one, two of them pass away. The last survivor drinks a final toast to his departed brothers—his sworn "Schmollis" companions—hears the glasses clink, calls out "Fiducit, merry brother!", and never drinks another drop.

@Gibbon You're right, of course, but the old one has so many memories for me

@val70 I read your other replies. I can understand why. 🫂
