Hi Thrifty.
I no how you feel. I'm off the sauce 4 months now and am thinking of having a few in moderation over Xmas. 26th of Dec is a big night for drinking in Ireland (even more than usual) but do I drink then on the 28th there's a night out is the question. I was going to have 1 tonight watching a footie game but my wife went crazy at me. So she's obviously not totally happy about me drinking again even though she bought me beer for the house for Xmas day, because she says that is ok because it's an occasion!
So confused. 1 thing I do no is there has been no hassle in the last 4 months without the sauce. But also not much fun either if I'm to be honest..
