Mine will also be a sober Christmas, Have to pick up and later take home various family members both today and tomorrow.
Police in my area having a blitz on drink driving this Christmas so will stick to soft drinks.
Will make up for it on my birthday in January when my daughter has promised to do the driving  |

Well done OP! My Christmases have always been sober but the temptation can't be easy to deal with for those who have stopped drinking with how ingrained in the culture of Christmas alcohol is. Good luck to everyone else wanting to stay sober over the festive period  |

. Well done on giving up alcohol like all a vices / addictions it can’t be easy.As someone that at best is a social drinker I will probably be having a glass or two of Buck’s Fizz with my Christmas meal. |

I rarely drink nowadays, since being diagnosed with diabetes 3 years ago. My mum always buys me a bottle of whisky for Christmas. I told her not to this year, as I've not opened last year's bottle, due to not yet finishing the bottle from Christmas 2021!
It looks like an off-licence here, though. It was my birthday on Friday, and I've gained 2 bottles of wine, some bottles of beer, and a bottle of Kraken Black Cherry rum - which I am having a small gkass of right now, and that's it. Tomorrow I have to collect my parents and drive them to my brother's for dinner, then drive them back home again so I won't be drinking. I'll have a small whisky tomorrow night when back home. |

Hmm. I'll have some procescco tomorrow - i brought a bottle of amarone with me, but I'm not sure I'll drink it - am debating doing 6 months no alcohol.
My dad and MIL were alcoholics so I don't have a good relationship with alcohol |

There is a long lay by on the uphill stretch leading to friends where I am going tonight. It often hosts tax checks, red diesel checks, etc. haven't seen them doing breath tests but there is always a first time.
Won't be safe on the way back, either, because the corresponding lay by on the homeward trip probably won't have any lorries parked there for a few days, thus making space for a team to operate. |
