I’d rather boil my balls in chip fat that give up drinking. We work hard and we chill out having a few drinks. I’m not giving up something we like doing for the satisfaction of others.

Movember can fuck right off too!

Same here.

Hubby and I will be forced to converse with each other sober. This may well end in divorce

No chance! Talk about your dreams - I remember dreams more, or maybe they’re more vivid I dunno - when I’m on the wagon.

Lol how about enjoying it moderately during the entire year rather than getting smashed on a regular basis? If you need Sober in October it sounds like you have in general already a quite serious alcohol problem...

Why does having a drink a couple of days a week have to become "getting smashed" and having a drink problem? Why do some people only see 2 extremes and nothing in between?

I've done 2 months free Clem....not lost any weight but last night, let's just say was a little stressful and I "needed" something. But I'll carry on I guess.

If you haven't lost any weight then you can't have been drinking too much in the first place imo. A little tipple isn't going to hurt. Sounds like you weren't doing sober october anyway though. Hope things don't get you that stressed again though!

thanks. I love proving people wrong.

Yesterday watching football in a pub surrounded by friends and people drinking, I realised that the social drinking isn't the issue, it's giving up something I enjoy. That's where the will power comes in I suppose.

Too many birthdays this month including mine so the best I can do is share elderflower cordial with friends.

I barely drink,but I did have a glass of wine last night during my two hour dance around the living room with my daughter,to get things out of my system!

It wouldn't be a problem for me if I did do it.

I'm doing it, but not because of Macmillan. It's because I'm giving Bone Marrow 1st November and want to make sure my blood to be as fresh as it can be.
