More thoughts

I think I'm going to go teetotal for a few months. It's been a while since I last did it, and it's a great way to cut back expenditures...

Edit: Yeah, I'm going to do it for a period of one month from today, then, in a months time, I'll see if I want to continue for another month or not.

Holy Tortilla batman!
I just added you to my friends list because I thought "well, I don't filter anyway, and I occasionally haunt here" and I find you've posted like 60 million times this morning alone ;)

I've been tee-total now for well over a year (since I was dating Emma actually) and to be honest I think it's one of the better decisions in my life.

Cutting back expenditures is one reason. Certainly a good one when you consider that you'll drink £20 on a night out of booze, or £2 in water!

The other reason is more "Because I can", than anything else. I sometimes like to do random things like that.

Anyway, today has been exceptional in terms of posts, I normally stick to one or two while I'm at work, and the occasional one at the weekend. But it depends on whether something interests me, or randomness strikes...

You're a brave man m'dear. I enjoy my modest selection of breakfast wines.

I did it for 9 months once to prove a point. I don't have anything to prove this time, so I don't know how mnay months it'll go on for. You never know, I might turn completely teetotal and have to get rid of all the vodka in my fridge.....naaaah.

I'm not sure I could go teetotal but drinking in moderation is no problem. Most of the time I'm driving, anyway and when I go clubbing/dancing I don't drink because when I dance the alcohol goes straight into my legs (and is dehydrating).

I love a nice glass of wine for dinner and a dram of Scotch afterwards too much to give it up, though, which I only do on occasion and not every day.
