    I’ve done a dry Monday

    Roll on 5pm

    What's 'no alcohol'??
    I just can't grasp this concept.

    Having an erudite discussion then or pretending to be clever and learned and informed, booze enhances these qualities

    I've not had any alcohol since December 2019. Started off as a training, weight loss thing and was going to be temporary. I've since realised that I don't miss it at all and it added nothing to my life so I currently have no plans to start again.

    Its part of the contract with NLyUK, wait till you get to the underlying clauses, who knew you could make Y fronts from brambles and nettles?
