As the other thread has filled up I thought I’d post one for the finale ~ 10 days to go & then we can all be super smug 
I’ve discovered the joys of Fever Tree Clementine over lots of ice & a slice of lemon / lime 
Okay so it’s not quite the same minus a shot of Hendricks but it’s pretty good! |

"I won a bottle of wine for best team name in my pub quiz a few weeks back.
"Fuck Dry January."
But well done to those of you who did (are doing) it."

Once you’re in the mindset I reckon that’s doable.  |

Does it make you want it more not having it for a month or do you still think you could do without. Does the abstinence wean you off at all. (I'm not much of a drinker so just curious) x |

Doesn’t wean me off it per se but it does makes me rethink my drinking habits~ it’s a bit like dieting at times though, saying I can’t have makes me want it |

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound |
A note of caution: don't go mad when you start to drink again. It can be a shock to your system and worse for you than if you had been drinking too much consistently.
I hope being alcohol free for January has helped people to feel and sleep better, rethink their drinking habits and save some money.
Well done.

I think it’s a good time to re-evaluate habits, I find it sets me up well for the start of a new year. I have some homemade Gin which I’m looking forward to trying. |
