I used to drink a fair bit, mainly down the pub before blues matches and a few times in the house in the week.
But ive decided, along with the wife to eat and drink a bit more healthly so i dont touch a drop of alcohol in the week now and ive stopped going the football (bored of football atm) so my consumption is probably 25% of what it was. I love cider, strongbow is favourite along with the stell one. |

1. do you drink to get drunk, be sociable or like the taste?
To be sociable, and because I like the taste. I know my limit, and stick to it. I don't do drunk, I don't like hangovers. I don't do drunk people either. Far too many painful memories of drunk spouses. 2. do you mainly drink in the house or in a pub? These days in the house, as we don't get out much. I used to love going to the pub, but trusted babysitters are hard to come by....that means grandparents. 3. how often do you drink? Once a week, although from Valentines we had a few nights in a row, but nothing to say we are alcoholics. We may not have a drink for a fortnight now! 4. what's your favourite/preferred tipple? I do love to have a nice glass of port or two, however I really am a red wine drinker. Have been known to have one or two 'mules'. Many moons ago, I woke up on Xmas Day on the toilet floor, as I was too drunk Xmas Eve, and daren't leave the toilet. I swore I would never get so drunk again. Its on a very rare occasion(once a year if that), someone might have to leave the bedroom lamp on to stop the room spinning ![]()

corrected sir
![]() ![]() Me: 1. Be sociable and like the taste. 2. Ends up being more in a pub cos I never have any of what I want in! 3. Not a lot now, I'm saving the pennies ![]() 4. what's your favourite/preferred tipple? Cidre but the proper stuff, none of this mixed fruit and strawberry stuff. Black Sheep. And if I'm feeling girly then mixers like Archers and Malibu but only if I'm out and they're on offer ![]() Last edited by missyburd; 20-02-12 at 08:18 PM. |
