Sicilia, no he didn't know I was trying to go sober.
I have had a go at him before for not letting me be "normal" and have wine with dinner every night.
So really he couldn't win.
My partner is not a big drinker at all (except for the very odd night with 'the boys').
He won't bring up alcohol at all now I have let him know I am trying to go sober. Correction, am going sober.
