    Seriously MF, wtf? You clearly have an alcohol addiction that needs to be managed. Try some time off the grog and then see if you can manage your intake better.

    I was hitting the sauce a bit a while back, especially when I had my little episode earlier in the year. This made me take stock. I don't drink during the week, only at weekends and then its more of a treat than anything else, eg if I'm barbecuing with the family and no one else is drinking then I just don't see the point, if my FIL is there and he is having a few tubes then hey why not keep him company.

    Good luck, hope you get it sorted. You'd be surprised how many folks actually have a problem and can't admit it. You don't need to stop, just cut back and apply some discipline.

    Orra best

    maybe it's better to go when you are young, and in your prime.
    Unlike being my age where I wake up every day and something else doesn't work?

    Maybe I can at least find a young mistress in her prime.

    Good point. When the triads came for him he should have kicked them in the head. He would now still be alive filming enter the dragon 27.

    Knee Hi was a friend of his who was six foot three, so kicking above him risked a serious injury , like a hernia

    good advice in my opinion




    You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to EternalOptimist again.

    That was so you wouldn't expect the kick in the chops.

    I've been on antibiotics for a week which preclude booze until 2 days after you stop. I'm not sure when I last went so long totally dry... quite possibly before I went to university.

    -Social, occupational and recreational pursuits are given up or reduced because of alcohol use
    -Use is continued despite knowledge of alcohol-related harm (physical or psychological)
    -Binge Drinking
    -Drinking to control emotions


    Plus anyone who drinks every night has a problem IMHO.
    The only one of those I can't tick the yes box for is withdrawal symptoms. Hic!
