Can you go without booze for 31 days?

I'm doing Alcohol Concern's Dry January campaign, for the heck of it, and with colleagues at work.

I've been practicing this month (want to lose a bit of weight) and already I realise, that even though I'm not a daily drinker, it's actually not that easy, because when I feel like having my occasional glass of wine, I want one dammit! And in these winter months I also like a tiny tot of whisky in a medicine glass with a shot of lemon juice and honey of a night tchsmile.

Anyway, the campaign is to raise awareness of people's drinking habits, so I thought I'd give them a little plug, because that's not a bad thing.

Fairhair! Wowzers, as my young friend would say, you made it! I feel all motherly towards you, seeing as you sobered up on my thread grin. Lovely to hear from you.
