I have it on good authority, "going for a jar" has been somewhat misinterpreted over the years, by some. Cue to about 1:14.......Take heed.
I've always thought that did sound a reasonable amount and was quite reassuring. I just don't get why they state the safe limit in pints when shops sell spirits by the litre. Anyway serious note, look after yourself Kemps. And cut down as the quack says. It may not actually make you live longer, but it'll definitely feel like it
So an update... All tests are done, bloods, X-rays, blow tests etc. The results are good really. There is some liver damage, ALT levels aren't what the doctor would like, but the levels are only slight. Heart and lungs are in good shape, blood pressure good, cholesterol's low, diabetes, thyroid, all that stuff is very good. I've got to take high strength Thiamine for the next four weeks and then go back for more bloods. It's interesting that the Doc advised me to not just stop drinking altogether, but to cut down very slowly. So there you have it. I was just being a pussy I suppose and it looks like you lot will have to put up with me for sometime yet. Look after yourselves people x
Did the quack tell you to cut down slowly to zero intake ? Forever ? If either answers are affirmative above, get a second opinion. Maybe even a third . Seriously. happy for you that things sound reasonably (ignore the qualifier ) positive !
Good to hear this news Kemps, just wondered if your remark about being a Pussy was a subtle way of telling us that you have to eat cat food they used to advertise had Thiamine in it?
Good news pal, it just goes to prove what everybody on here probably suspected... You’re a f***in drama queen! Stay well.
Kemps - do you mind if we proceed with the planned wake? Seems a shame to let your health get in the way of a piss up.....
Sorry Chazz, I really am, but I'm feeling really well at moment. In fact I might just run off down the beer off and get myself a 2 litre bottle of Liebfraumuck
Beer off!!! ****ing hell I hope you’re going to take your shoes to the cobblers and pay your leccy bill at YEB in town while you’re at it
