    Not had a drop for 23 days, don't miss it but can't say I feel any benefit from abstinence.

    However, thinking of going for a few beers this afternoon.

    Well, what the ****, we're only here twice, at least.

    In my experience, it's not that difficult to stop. Staying stopped can be tricky.

    Fortunately, lots of help is available if you need it.

    I believe in reincarnation Mick.

    It's the only thing that makes sense.

    Yeah, but you're a ****ing lightweight. Sniff of the barmaid's apron would knock you out cold.

    I've been almost teetotal since the start of the year. I had the odd glass with a meal in France over the past few weeks but I reckon my total intake for the year to date is no more than 30 units. It's been part of a diet in which I have now lost 11 kilos. The trouble with drinking is that it weakens your resolve not to gorge yourself.

    Can you not just enjoy a pint with a meal when you're out or would that lead to self destruction?

    I don't really understand the all or nothing approach to alcoholism.

    My tolerance levels went up over the Euros where I would need at least 2 bottles of wine and graduated to spirits.

    My arsehol was exploding every morning and thought I had something wrong with my guts , turns out it was just the booze.

    One of my neighbours died recently after locking himself away during lockdowns and drinking himself to death leaving his young daughter behind .

    She was about 13 and the selfish prick ****ed her life up too .

    First of all it was "darkies" and now it's "barmaids".

    this silly sausagery is getting thrown on the barbie. I will throw the sausage up and it will fall down onto the barbie - conclusive proof of a flat earth, otherwise the sausage would fall away from the barbie into infinity and beyond.

    True that undertakers never go out of business but it is going to be booming between now and 2023 as all the vaccinated die leaving only total cretin no vaxxers like @Lochers in the country. Just the small problem of the undertakers having taken the vaccines so who is going to take over the grave digging when they check out?

    He trusted the Bible over medical science.
    When he genuflected it was to BLM and God.
    Both of them have forsaken him. <ok>

    Sorry to read that anybody has died from the plague, vaccinated or otherwise, that was associated with this Forum.

    Interesting quotes from that article:

    “According to the most recent PHE figures, the majority of those infected with the Delta variant who died between February and June had received at least one jab.

    Experts say this is to be expected. Roughly five per cent of people who have both doses of the vaccine will not respond to it, and a further five per cent may produce a weak response due to underlying conditions that compromise their immune system. Transplant patients taking high doses of medications that suppress their body’s infection-fighting mechanisms and blood cancer patients make up the majority of this group. Together, this adds up to roughly three million people potentially extremely vulnerable to the virus.

    And age is still a risk factor. While the vaccine reduces the risk of death from Covid 20-fold, the risk of death for a 70-year-old is 32 times that of a 35-year-old.”



    “It is also possible that people who, on paper, are double-vaccinated may have become infected soon after their second dose – meaning it hadn’t had time to work properly.”


    “The latest Government data shows uptake of at least one dose of the jab is more than 90 per cent in all age groups above 60. But in the 45-to-49-year-old age group, it drops to 80 per cent. In 25-to-29-year-olds, it’s just shy of 60 per cent. One London-based medic told this newspaper the average age of Covid patients on their intensive-care wards was just 42.”

    Why would the BBC not give prominent coverage to London protests when that would be giving the oxygen of publicity to this sort of moron?
