How much booze will you be having this Christmas/New Year?

[HLaB]

I've nothing serious planned last week saw me drink three pints on a night out and thats about comfortable for me these days and I can go weeks or even months without a drink; alcohol doesn't really excite me now.

Been buying a bottle or 2 every week for a while now, just got it all down and it amounts to this lot
5 bottles of single malt
2 bottles bourbon
1 blended malt
Gin
Port
Cognac
Drambuie
3 bottles of prosecco
1 bottle sparkling red
3 bottles red wine
1 white
Baileys

Jeez half the folk in this thread renouncing alcohol, it's like a feckin baptist meet.

Jeez half the folks in this thread not renouncing alcohol, it's like a AA meet.

I'll be having about the same as I have for the last 8 years, i.e. none.

As much as I fancy. I won't be driving at all following shoulder op but I actually don't drink that much over Christmas itself, probably a couple of glasses of champagne and a couple of glasses of wine on the day. I'm out tomorrow evening, maybe a couple of pints as I have to get myself home. Pain levels might dictate too

The boy has got three 15lt kegs of IPA home-brew at the moment. One is ready, we've just sampled it and it's rather nice. The other 2 will be ready next week just in time for New Year's eve.

May I just point out that you can drink alcohol without ending up with a hangover the next day.
If you're doing that regularly, you're doing it wrong.

And you can also drink beer one night and go for a bike ride the next morning.

What time should we get to yours.

Best cure for a hangover is fresh air and exercise, any suggestions??

 

[nickyboy]

Christmas Day is already scoped out.....

In the morning....coffee...cos my Mum is staying and she'll start tutting if I have a quick sharpener

Other relatives arrive....buck's fizz
Relatives start getting on my nerves....maybe open the red wine
Lunch served...got a magnum of nice Argentinian Malbec to work through. May get some help with this
Cheeses.....vintage port....MiL will tut as I have a wine glass full of it rather than those ridiculous little port glasses that nobody in Portugal uses
Digestif....25 year old cognac
Probably have a couple of tins of really nice beer in the evening

Do a hard hilly ride Boxing Day to offset

And you can also drink beer one night and go for a bike ride the next morning.

Or, indeed, have a night ride and then have some drinks in the morning.
