I've never been drunk...at least, not that I can remember......I am always sober so it's no trouble for me. I don't believe in getting drunk.

"Burger-All(gust)"?Is there an equivalent specifically to give up junk food?
If you click the link in the first posting, you can buy yourself a "golden ticket" to get a day off.Sorry, no chance.
One of the ukulele bands i belong to is sponsored by a local brewery and we are playing there in a couple of weeks to mark the annual hop festival, and the resulting green hop ale. We will be "paid" in beer, and i have no intention of missing it. Call me shallow, but i dont want to miss the chance of an afternoon of music playing. And free beer......
That sounds like the sort of lame justification an alcoholic would give for not stopping drinking. "Only alcoholics take a break from alcohol"Allegedly giving up alcohol for a month is something Alcoholics do to 'prove' they're not an Alky.![]()

Or 'I could stop, but I don't choose to'
You don't have to stop drinking. I just think anyone who says "alcoholics is the ones who give up drinking for a month" (?!!!) are probably protesting a leeeeetle too much.Actually I gave up for 3 months after the 2nd operation on my leg, it was just boring as f***.![]()
Alcohol & harms is a dose response relationship. There may be some benefit in low daily consumption, but above that level, the more you take the greater the risk of harm. You have a greater chance of contracting a disease from you alcohol consumption if you drink 3 pints a day compared to a teetotaller, but of course much less than someone drinking 8 pints a day.All this talk of being dry and not waking up with a hangover surely is directed at those who can't take a drink in moderation. I know they now class you as an alky if you have a few pints a night. Like my old dad used to say, they'll tell you everything is bad for you but they never say work is bad for you!
this hasn't had enough love yetI'll probably be here a lot :-)
We only eat the amount we grow a year ... so that's not very much.... (it's an absolute pig to harvest the actual grains!!!)this hasn't had enough love yet
Be careful being smug about quinoa. Apparently the Peruvians can't afford to eat it any more, because of how much Hampstead residents are willing to pay. Couscous and bulgur aren't so perfect nutritionally, but much better morally.![]()
