Just received this from a friend.

I don’t judge I go with the flow

A joke and punctuation! Win, win. Thank you.

We all know the difference wrong punctuation can make! I do like your friend's style, though. A definite keeper.

Laugh a while...

Have you eaten Granny? Oops....... Have you eaten, Granny? Book written by Gyles Brandreth.

Lynn Truss got there first (by around 15 years!) with her "Eats, shoots and leaves". What a difference that comma after 'eats' makes, haha!

Me too!!

Brilliant. Thank you. Needed a laugh.

Brilliant .Couldn't agree more .

I don't drink alcohol at all, so I can't really join in. Sadly, that means I can't lose weight by giving it up, either! I am always entertained though, by how the meaning of any sentence can be changed with either punctuation or just emphasis!

Sounds a good plan.

I have added beery treats fkr xmas to my next online shop. Unfortunately alcohol free beer doesnt quite have the same effects! Otoh I can drink lots of it!!

Lovely ? Chin chin ?

I'm giving up being grumpy until Christmas .
Oops punctuation mistake .
I'm giving up . Being grumpy until Christmas !

I like it tiredoldwoman. You could substitute other words, depending on your target audience. Eg for DH send some Christmas cheer with “alluring”. For curious grandchildren “secretive”.

I drink like a fish on %Friday’s, I guess that makes me a binge drinker.
Certainly doesn’t make me shudder seeing these very amusing things.
Alcohol is a dangerous thing however I’m sure we all know what we are doing and can do with laugh not a lecture at this point ...........

Ha ha ...love that !!!!! I don't drink ...not because I have any objections, but because I simply don't like the taste !!!! so I will maybe open a LARGE bottle of sparkling water ....don't want to ruin the festivities ...............

love it Grannynannywanny I've treated myself to a large bottle of Bailey's now waiting for the sun to be over the yardarm !!!

Critical post Bluebellwould don't recall any of us saying we were alcohol dependent.

I am extremely exhausted and grumpy on the inside, but that is where those feelings will stay!!

I shall continue to smile, spray perfume and carry on?

IMO you were entitled to a little rant, @Grannygravy.
Cheers, all! ??

don't shudder on my behalf
In my 9th decade with bits dropping off.... but happy

Thanks for that! A laugh is just what I needed, even though I don’t drink. ???

Needed something to smile about ???

Love your contribution also, Shinamae

Very funny, but makes me shudder to think how many of you drink and how you all seem to want/need it.

Unnecessarily judgemental there, don't you think?
