    I must roll then. I've just gone 57 years without it.

    Smoked a shit load of fags though.

    I've just done a week. Before that I did another week. I've managed to
    break the 4-pack a night habit, restricting it to one night at the
    weekend.

  3. 28 cans a week? I didn't realise retail was quite that stressful. What
    brew did the cans contain?

    Cheap shit bitter / lager usually.

    It wasn't the alcohol, more the habit, I think.

    Is 28 beers a week excessive? I must moderate my intake in future.

  8. I'm sure you know what the recommended intake is and then you'll
    promptly ignore it in true Bonwick style.

    I famously drink next to nothing so am often a bit surprised at quite
    how much various ukrmers manage to knock back.

    From my experience of beer culture UKRM's drinking pales into
    insignificance (except a notable few). Mainly because it's not
    institutionalised; fortunately my experience has moved on.

    You won't, you know.

    For the past few weeks I have been slowly getting rid of a load of
    shite old French lager by mixing it with shite old lemonade from Tesco
    and making something that in moments of extreme thirst can pass for
    shandy.

    I have to admit to lying a bit when we moved and I registered at a new
    doctors. They gave us both a sheet to fill in and I was slightly light
    on the amount I admitted to drinking and smoking.
    Probably not.

    Heh. When I went to see our GP for the first time, couple of days
    after I'd come out of hospital, he asked me all the same questions, to
    which I answered that I drank about 2-3 glasses of wine per day, which
    is about right _at the moment_. He still went on to ask if I had any
    dependency issues, giving the impression that this was viewed as a
    lot. I was quite taken aback.
    Good man. I knew we could rely on you.

    If you need a drink to function, go and have one.
