    Not surprising since I've been teetotal for several years.

    Calling it a twig is quite self-effacing

    Good old Charles Bukowski:

    “That's the problem with drinking, I thought, as I poured myself a drink. If something bad happens you drink in an attempt to forget; if something good happens you drink in order to celebrate; and if nothing happens you drink to make something happen.”
    “Sometimes you just have to pee in the sink.”

    I have recently twigged the wife of one of my neighbours is never around, I think she must have left him, he just passed by the house there which he does every evening when he goes down to sit in the window seat of one of the locals where you can see him chugging pint after pint for a few hours.

    Lucky bastard.

    Other way around; CUK is slowly invading Europe. Bloody good job too as the Euroland contractor boards are rather dull.

    I think I am more of a bingey drinker type. I don't think I drink and awful lot, but if I do drink, the volume's high, and I'll not let a bottle sit unfinished. I know people who'll pop a bottle open, have a glass, then leave it until the next day. I can't do that.

    I also can't simply pop out for a pint, for if I have decided I am going to have a drink, I utilise the opportunity to actually have a proper drink...
