Can I do it? I've been cutting down bit by bit this year, I reckon it's doable. If I put it up here it'll give me peer pressure and an extra incentive.

Anyone else thinking of doing this?

Why would you want to? Drinking to excess is a bad idea, but drinking per se isn't. Indeed, quite apart from the enjoyment, there's a fair bit of evidence to suggest that teetotalling is actively bad for you, compared with drinking in moderation.

Sometimes it's good to prove you can do it though. Lots of people give up stuff for Lent for that reason, I think.

I don't drink much anyway, and I was teetotal for a few years, which was no hardship. Nowadays, it's the very odd pint after work, or a bottle of red wine shared with NT, often over two evenings.

Hmm - I would hate it. I make sure that I don't drink more than a couple of nights a week and no more than a couple of drinks on those nights - but I do enjoy a drink. I know it would take a lot of will power to aim for a year and I suspect I would go into the year thinking ah well I'm bound to slip at some point.

I figure there are lots of great peeps out there doing their very best to make some stupendously tasty ales. I fully intend to sample their efforts. How about upping the quality and drinking just a wee bit less? A shame to knock it totally on the head.

I dont drink much anyway so it makes no odds to me.

Also i know an alchoholic and when you see a person having to drink just to function it puts you off.
