Going to give it a go. Not that I was a massive drinker anyway. But I suspect that some of my so-called "mates" will suddenly become supremely uninteresting without the warm beery glow.
Anyone else tried it?

Tried it a few months ago - managed one day. -
Multiple times, longest I lasted was 16 months. Funny thing was each time got easyer. Now bearly drink at all (once every two months)
Really nice thing is now when i drink my bar bill is a hell of a lot less if looking to get reasonably drunk as my resistance has gone to hell.Comment

Yes... which is difficult in Scotland as the social life does often revolve around booze.
I limit myself to drinking wine mostly... try to keep it to friday and saturday nights if possible as i have overdone it before on a 'school night'...
Best thing is to branch out into a different social circle.. im into different genres of cinema, comedy, meals out etc... but most of the culture here is pubs / clubs... it takes perservance...
I have to say when i realised i was spending an average of 2k a month on booze I saw the light.Vieze Oude Man

Ah the good old days, walking into a bar, flashing the gold card and ordering a couple of bottles of vintage Dom Perignon to impress the girlies.

We were once on a jolly in Poland doing a branch upgrade, he would go into the girly bars and buy bottles of shampoo, until he discovered how much he had spent and went as white as a ghost, oddly the girls all disappeared, apart from two very "occomodating" one's I seem the rememberOriginally posted by Mordac

2K a month on alcohol
A thousand pints of Whitbread pale ale for example, which would be 33 pints a day, or 12 bottles of wine a day.
Sh*t
Did you cut down or simply fall over?
I'm alright JackComment

2k a month is easy... 1k in one day on champagne, long island iced teas, a £275 bottle of Chateau Latour '78, a £175 quid bottle of white (cant remember which), oh and some food and a romatic view over Edinburgh from the balcony of the Tower Restaurant at 1am on our own...
Thats why I contract I guess. I have to to support the lifestyle...!
P.S that was when I had just had a signed renewal for 6 months for £50 an hour - highest rate ive had in Scotland, and the first 'proper' date with the current ex-to-be. Unfortunately a week later Atos Origin reneged on their signed contract.Last edited by mcquiggd; 7 November 2005, 14:14.Vieze Oude ManComment
