I finally 'got' the joke splendra
I thought I would mention I haven't drank for 3 days, the last time was when I went to a friends wedding and was too-drunk. The friend whose wedding it was gave me a severe telling off the next day and I realised I had alreay lost some friends due my drinking.
So it was the final straw (I hope), I am now going through the sweats and the shakes and worst of all the psycholigical symptoms of anxiety, depression and self-loathing.
Oh well
