Nice list, Youri, pal.

Your attention to detail and due diligence hasn't gone un-noticed this year.

I’m disgusted he hasn’t made the New Years honours list tbh

My hand's been forced because the wife has gone from not drinking today to having 3 bottles bought to the door by Deliveroo and getting the vinyl out.

If I'm going to have to cope with the Top Gun soundtrack I'll need summat to get me through.

Just picked another few Rivi from Wrights and a glass

Still Fog on the shelf if anyone is running low

Had a couple of Pollys yesterday Cas, Bunburys had them in

Got a couple of Cloudwaters still in the beer box, a black forest impy stout and a DIPA night on the files

Dread to think what I've spent the last month on craft

Ending 2020 never having had a Rivi, I might as well join the other side and just get a crate of Fosters with the big shop every week.

Same. 

I've supped an insane amount of malbec though. 

I did dry January 2 years ago and it was painful. Just dull as fuck. 

But with no match to go to its either doable or the worst idea ever. 

I might have a month off red and get ont 9 quid 330ml cans of hipster piss! 🤣

Have you told her?

Yeah 

She's all sanctimonious about it because she bulk buys her wine at Costco 

She's not shy drinking it but doesn't pass out on the sofa and can get herself to bed of an evening

I need a dry January just to get one up on her on the moral-ometer

Got loads of booze left but going to try and have a few weeks off the bevvy. I’m not doing dry January as such, if I fancy a beer, I’ll have one but I’ve run out of appetite for cans/bottles.

Lets see if I get to half time tomorrow though, 1st real test
