After realising I had twice as many posts on this thread than anyone else then seeing how many empties I had to take for recycling I decided to have a few days off

Daily pint? Looks like you're in credit 'til middle of next week

I've always enjoyed going to the pub but seem to have developed habit of drinking most nights at home. Not huge amounts but more than perhaps feels right. Not sure what's worse 2 or 3 pints per night or a weekend 'binge'?

Thing is in the summer I'm much more likely to go out for an hour's walk or bike ride. Roll on the light nights and a pint outside the Fleece watching the swifts zoom by

Excellent cross training and good reason for a beer or eight on Friday

I'd have thought brandy might be more appropriate or a dram of whiskey given it's gonna be taters!

Actually treating myself tonight, not been drinking at all really, the odd 1 maybe once a fortnight - bottle/pint that is not gallon! anyway, having an iced cold pear cider....just a wee one mind quite pleasant it is too...only had a couple of sips and the cheeks are feeling flushed already, I've become a very cheap date!
