27 days sober. Was a hard one last night. Went out for a drink with best friend. Sick of soft drinks so friend said you've nearly finished the month what do you have to prove have a drink. I found a non alcoholic drink it was a cider one and tasted lush. This is my new drink now. I think some people don't like you to succeed. I've had more encouragement on here than real life. Thank you fellow fabbers

That friend isn’t a friend with a comment like that, totally insensitive.

Fair play to you though, OP. You’re doing brilliantly, day by day.

Here’s to another 28

Good going being alcohol free in this society is not an easy thing to do but the benefits out way the pressure society puts on people to drink.

One of my colleagues doesn't drink... A barmaid who doesn't drink, weird lol!

She bought a bottle of Nonsecco to work last night, it was actually really nice.

I wouldn't have known it was alcohol free from the taste

But WTF, Is it twice the price of the real stuff?

The alcohol free ciders are fantastic.. Makes you feel as though your having a drink. Its what i drank when i did sober october last year.

That one single vodka i had at 12.01 on the 1st November was the best drink ever though

As a teenager, I used to drink too much. I stopped drinking completely for 8 years, until I decided I was more sensible. Now I drink only drink in moderation,and only when I'm out.
