Vodka is not good for me either. I don't touch it anymore. Once I decided to avoid it, staying off it wasn't a problem.

If I got hangovers I would give quitting completely more serious thought, but I don't. Luckliy. Or unluckily, whatever way you look at it. I do like a drink though. I have to admit that, so I'm not sure I'd want to give up altogether.

I like to keep in decent shape so a heavy session stops me doing much running for a couple of days, even though I'm not really hungover as such. This helps keep my drinking in check.

You seem to have reached a turning point and are serious that changes have to be made. Once that sinks in I'm sure you will find you have more willpower than you think.

I don't want to deny myself alcohol either as I enjoy it too. However, for some people the cons outweigh the pros, so it makes sense for them to give up.

I'm back on it lads. GOt really depressed after my last binge and was wanting to quit the booze for good.

But feeling a lot better and alcohol gves me a lot of pleasure so why should i deny myself? Just need to do it in moderation.

I appreciate all the comments and fair play to the ones that are tee-total. Total respect

I'm on the wine 2nite and you can catch me on the 'Is anyone on the booze 2nite' fred

You don't need money to be poetic old chap. I would do myself but poetry is not my strong point and I had a terrible time at Chester, I'll just send a happy birthday text. Perhaps you might feel a bit more creative in the morning you never know, tomorrow is another day and all that eh.

You have got some week ahead of you smithy.  Bet you cant wait!

Was in benidorm 10 years ago. We got chucked out of our apartments and had to stay for rest of the week with the guys next door who were from BURNLEY. Your favourite people Smithy lol. They were good lads. Me and my pal would have been homeless for the rest of the week otherwise.

Bwnidorm was possibly the best week on holiday ever,you will have a good one

BIsh Bosher - Why do you chose not to drink? Have you replaced the drink with something else?


As i said I was never a drinker anyway; used to be a Shandy drinker; the reason I packed the drink in totally was to help my mam who was diagnosed with Diabetes; as my grandma had it as well i decided it may well be hereditary so i decided to live a healthier lifestyle; never replaced the money i saved with anything else but went on about dozen holidays including Vegas twice Love; loved the casinos & got a mortgage as well; many people tried to get me drunk but no one succeeded; as i say it's all down to will power; good luck if you decide to do it
