Dry January

[lavrentis]

Anyone gonna try and go without alcohol for the entire month of January?

[Webbo]

No.

[TheUltimateWinner]

Are you drunk?

[Matt]

Not whilst going to Leicester games.

[Voll Blau]

If I wanted to have a month of the booze I doubt I'd feel the need to announce it to anyone.

[Voll Blau]

:xmaslaugh:

 

Dreadful from myself there. If that were the case I don't think I'd be in a position to announce anything.  :xmasbiggrin:

[AKCJ]

**** that  

[ScouseFox]

mental 

[Voll Blau]

Do the people that do this stop at dead-on midnight on January 1?

 

Or do they just leave it till the morning after then bombard the rest of us with constant reminders of what paragons of temperance they are for the next 31 fvcking days.

[SystonFox]

Lavrentis having a month off the booze. As if mate

[Corky]

Yeah, think I'll try. Had my one drink of the year at Christmas.

[ScouseFox]

might try it tbf 

[The Doctor]

Nah - not exactly healthy, gonna stick with drinking a small amount regularly. 

[FoxesAreBlue]

I'm gonna take a month off the drink, not for charity or any such rubbish, because ive had most of this month off and simply of myself go thanks to too much booze and unhealthy food. Time to get back in shape.

[DB11]

Nope, it's stupid and pointless. And when people then try and get sponsored for it

 

If you want it to actually be hard and an achievement why not try December or a summer month? Not one of the most 'depressing' months when people have little money due to overspending the month before.

 

Oh, and my birthday's in January so **** ever not drinking

[MooseBreath]

I'll probably have a few beers at some point but January and February are both quiet months and it wouldn't take any effort at all to not drink. Bit like saying I'm going to have a cheeseburger free January really.

[ScouseFox]

nah gotta say new year's eve/day then i've got about 6 birthdays and quite often go away in january. a lot of drinking will be happening. i'm out. 

[Bellend Sebastian]

In going to try and drink more

[StanSP]

Do the people that do this stop at dead-on midnight on January 1?

 

Or do they just leave it till the morning after then bombard the rest of us with constant reminders of what paragons of temperance they are for the next 31 fvcking days.

 

I thought this too. Surely it gets broken if they have a glass of bubbly dead on midnight

[Unabomber]

Yeah seems fun

[Captain...]

If anyone is doing it, good luck it isn't always easy the best way is to tell everyone you are going to do it then when they say you'll never do it it will make you more determined to prove them wrong, just don't ask anyone for sponsorship if you want to be sponsored for not drinking Go to an AA meeting. Who was the tit on here who asked for sponsorship and got a load of stick, and then only lasted 2 weeks?

[Nalis]

I successfully did it last January. Didn't ask for money or anything, I just donated money to charity myself as it was more to see if I could do it or not.

Probably won't bother doing it this January.

[FoxesAreBlue]

Tbh I didn't realise it was a charity thing, (although i'm not surprised).

I'm purely doing it for myself as I'm skint, in poorer shape and have no birthdays/events this month. The testing times will be the city games but other than that it should be easy.

[Strokes]

I regularly go for more than a month without alcohol, but its never planned. I bet I've drank more in december than the whole of 2014.
