In for the night. Just liberated the Polish shop for my sustenance 😊

Had a bottle of red last night, rubbish nights sleep. Drinking is a young man's game, of that I'm sure.

Been absolutely fucked today. Worst hangover I've ever had. 

Second day of abstention

Im gonna do no more than 6-8 cans per weekend

Even thats 20 units

 

My mate gets back from Afghanistan on Friday after 367 days due to covid.

To say he will want a drink when he lands is an understatement and puts to bed any ideas of a dry jan I had.

Inconsiderate bastard

I can't remember the last day I didn't have a drink. Going to knock it on the head for a while.

I’m done with the booze probably until we return back to the football or get on holiday

Nah I’m done otherwise I’ll just carry on😀

I’m 2 days in now. I’ve not set a target of dry January etc, if I want a beer I’ll have one. It’s more of a case I want very little over the next 2 or 3 months. Try to exercise a bit more and make it a bit easier to tie my shoes without the belly getting in the way.

Not too far away from 50 now and carrying far too much excess weight ain’t good

TsingTao?

An acceptable peasant brew?

It’s delightful. Usually only have it when in Chinatown.

Crisp and light. Very drinkable in vast quantities. Until you fall over or soil yourself of course

Define 'skipful' - from a shop or off the back of a lorry?

It it's less than ten bottles/cans it's pangolin piss.

Ten or more it's acceptable - even if it's 'Bud' for Chingalings.

So far so good 

Got 3 PT sessions down the park this week to clear the cobwebs 

No intention of drinking midweek as busy this week 

Will reassess come Friday 

I'll either feel like rewarding myself or think Keep it going 

Either or, even if i drinks fri/sat that's pretty dry relatively speaking 

The trick for me is to not drink Sunday 

The other challenge is Tuesday night games and we have two this month 

Drink Tuesday and it's full steam ahead through to Saturday

Get the Russian shagging about and then get her fella to employ you to follow her again. That will pass the time. And give us all something to look forward too for the updates. Win win 

Well

After literally hours on the wagon, it looks like we may need to wearily put our shoulders to the wheel and keep this thread going.

I'm being a good boy till Friday night

Definitely..but I'm confident in my abilities.

You can do it 👍

 

Jaipur 88p a bottle in morrisons at Breightmet. Date up at end of month, but are you bothered?

I’ve just had a pint of fizzy vimto.

Id be lying if I said it’s helped

me too

Friday beacuse it's Friday and I gave last weekend a miss

and Saturday because the Bills are on at 6pm

if I do Fri/Sat only for the rest of Jan, bar the two times Bolton play midweek (assuming they go ahead) I'll be happy

it should get  my average daily spend down from £22.57 to around £10

I'm doing dry Jan for first time ever. If I can't do it this month with fuck all open I'll never do it.
