Given how little I go out, if I didn't have a couple of glasses of wine at home now and then I'd never drink! Does that make me an alkie?

I'm not sure I agree that drinking at home is a sign of alcoholism. Indeed I may have a beer tonight whilst watching the football. The only person I know who I would describe as an alcoholic doesn't, to my knowledge, drink at home but is in the pub til closing time almost every night(or was. I think he's calmed down a bit to be fair but that's only from what I've heard from others).

Its ok as long as it single malt. If its bells or tesco own brand you are an alcoholic.


Is Glen Morangie ok?


4Litre bottle of Tesco Value, £6.99. Every little helps...

Only joking, I couldn't even contemplate drinking anywhere near work. I remember a long time ago one of my colleagues brought in some home made Jamaica cake, which was moist with rum. I had a slice, twenty minutes later I had to sit in the tea room and down water because I couldn't see straight and I kept stuttering. Alcohol at work doesn't mix with me.


GG, you're quite young aren't you? I don't want to sound condescending, but you'll soon learn, everything in moderation is fine.


I'm only 22 aye, and your right, moderation is great, but I fall down with my super addictive personality. It's why I daren't go near any hard drugs. When all my mates got in to all that stuff, ecstasy, mdma, coke, all that 5 years or so ago I never took any of it once, 'cos I was frit I'd become a smackhead if I did. The only way I can cut things down like smoking/drinking/buddha is to get myself off it completely for a good few months then get back onto it in a moderate way, sounds stupid but It's how my body/mind works. Still not touched anything but am a bit frickin' edgy at the mo

Cheers, that's much classier.

After a hard days battling the bookies at HQ, I have a bottle of Grain IPA just begging to be drunk. I had a beer on the train back through lack of anything else to do mind and I am considering getting up to watch Kirklees tomorrow so I am resisting at the moment

Had a nice win today on the GG's.

Just been to the offy to buy a 1/2 pint of Bacardi for a change. All they had was a 1/5.

so that's 70cl over here.

By 10pm I'll be wasted. Luckily the wife and kids are visiting the inlaws in Sussex.

I apologise in advance if I waffle tonight.

But then I always waffle don't I?

Yes  

My choice was Smirnoff Red - a bottle at £11 or a litre at £15 - It's got to last 'till tomorrow so no option really  

Last night I did have a cuppa tea and a piece of iced ginger cake c/o M&S so I'm allowed

I go into serious waffle mode on rum though.

The responsible thing to do would be to log off (or sod off) until tommorrow.

Otherwise, I'm likely to wake up wondering what I've got to apologise for....
