gonzo Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I'll sponsor you mate. I went from 18-29 years old drinking a minimum of 6-8 pints a night towards the end. It was ridiculously hard and I was a right grumpy cunt in the meantime,but I cracked it. I still rarely go more than 2 weeks mind...can't miss a Sunday pint with my old fella every week,he won't be here forever. Get the page up victor...

freds dad Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I stop drinking every year form the 2nd of January until 2nd Feb and have been doing it for over 10 years. It's like a mini detox and you do feel good after the first 10 days. Good luck with the October thing. Are you following it up with Movember?

birch-chorley Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Lets get this right, the plan is to stop drinking for a month, no more than four and a bit weeks yet if your a shithouse you can buy a golden ticket for £15 and get as shitfaced as you like and it still counts? Are you allowed to take E's on this stoptober or does that require a different coloured (sickening) ticket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoopJohnnyJohn Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 not drinking is easy.. easier than you think it will be.. good luck Easy when you've never done it. It's like saying "not shooting up heroin is easy" True, unless you've been a smackhead for 20 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSW Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 (edited) Great effort Meldrew. I've had my last tipple for September and signed up to it as well. We're in it together mate, alien territory from the morning. Long time since I haven't had a drink for this length of time! I Love a good challenge . We can do this . https://www.gosober.org.uk/profile/clairechriswood Edited September 30, 2013 by CSW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cureforsanity Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Could I just say bollocks to it all? Bollocks. Ithangyou. What with this shite, stoptober then movember? Are we no longer allowed to make our own minds up whether we drink, smoke, shave etc? I'll still be supporting my local boozer whilst sticking my change in the charity box. I can't wait to hear what'll be next. Shagfree September? March to work March? May the 4th be with you (when you're considered a social pariah if you DON'T dress up as a character from Star Wars) BOLLOCKS Big hairy sweaty dangly ones at that. Pass me my ale.....

Youri McAnespie Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Whenever I want a booze free month I just stock-up on PCP, TCP, MDMA and Night Nurse - it's a piece of piss with them to hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
