    Wtf is wrong with me man...still not a drop of booze this month, I'm eating much more healthily, and I've just done my fifth consecutive day of 5k on the tread (oh, and I'm in line for a tax rebate as well). Tremendous!

    I’ve gone 45 minutes without a beer. That’s progress I know. But hey times are difficult.

    <laugh> Not long left to go, Jim. I 'cheated' last night and had a bottle of Becks Blue alcohol-free lager. I stopped when I realised I wouldn't be getting pished on it.

    I think it's particularly harsh that not only is this Dry January during lockdown, but it's also a January with 5 bloody weekends in it!

    I've been on the booze free beer all month - it's all that's keeping me going.

    Becks Blue is absolute ****e but Punk AF from Brewdog, Infinite Session IPA and the selection from WBB (West Berkshire Brewery) are actually drinkable.

    Duly noted! Wifey had made a delicious ham and pineapple pizza last night, the Becks washed it down. There are definite benefits to keeping off the ale...financial and health to think of two. Keep up the good work, mate!
