Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 I'm thinking of having a dry month for September, a whole calender month minus the demon drink. I've been on holiday (and drank 13 nights out of 14), been to a couple of BBQs, going to a leaving party tonight and Redcar Races next Saturday. Not only is this probably playing havoc with my liver but I've also had to buy my first ever pair of 34 waist trousers. I've been a 32 since I left school! So thats it. No drink for me in Semptember.

adios 717 Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 I've been off for about 3 weeks. Stayed off for a couple of years before that. It's bloody difficult at first but gets easier. Pub can be a bit of a bore sometimes though - especially towards the end of the night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jill 0 Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 I think I maybe need to have an alcohol-free month. Got no willpower though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Hog 526 Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 A free month can be a good way of starting a clean slate. Go for a month then just get into the habbit of drinking smaller amounts when your out. It's piss easy in the pub. Just have a soft drink every other pint. Tougher if you're doing bars and clubs though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted August 13, 2005 Author Share Posted August 13, 2005 I've done a month before, its ok as long as you don't put too much temptation in the way. I caved in in a club last time, couldn't drink water any longer. And there's nowt worse than listening to your mates rambling on about a load of drunken rubbish whilst your stone cold sober.

Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 Yes, I'm definitely going to go through with it. And I hope to be celebrating England reclaiming the Ashes next sunday or monday with a nice glass of milk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Kirkey 0 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Too difficult to go completely dry when the football season's getting into full swing imo. So by that logic summer would be better, because there's no football, but drinking and going out in the nice weather's the best part of summer...I dunno they get you coming, and they get you going Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordieshandy 0 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Well I haven't had a drink today yet so I'm with you at the moment. Was already on two weeks dry before the Man U game, but I had a few then and again after Owen signed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
