Been off the Drink since Boxing Day 2005 , had the odd lapse while being away (GoneToEarth will confirm this :drinks: lol) but in normal day life I dont bother and dont think i will again , it will be 7yrs come this Boxing Day , has anyone been off it a long time and gone back on it ?

:thumbs: Well done mate, I was a hard drinker years ago! don't miss it at all,But my stupidity and fighting when drinking has just reared its ugly head after 26 years when I applied for a job and a CRB check had to be done; It made me more determined not to go back to those dark days.

Why anyone would slide into alcohol addiction or drug addiction is beyond me...It does'nt happen overnight and surely they can feel which way they're heading. Either weak willed or just plain stupid imo. Most turn into outright dickheads on the drink so why do they let themselves get to that stage in the first place..Whatever happened to havin a drink just to be sociable instead of havin a drink to get outright plastered..?A fool and his money eh..atb stabba

Think just having a drink to be sociable went out of the window [bANNED TEXT] they relaxed and changed the openining and closeing times imho.

That and the supermarket bulk offers on the tins. :yes: I knew a few folk who went from piss heads to proper alkies when they started that after the smoking ban came in to capitalise on people slurping at home...

I love a drink, I even quit smoking because of it. I was one of those who didn't like smoking when drinking so the cigs had to go :thumbs:

Really.? Goodness your lucky - i used to smoke double sometimes triple when i was drinking :laugh:
