I know you're not going to change your mind Canuckleman but in deference to others who might be reading - I wouldn't go with 10 miles of an all inclusive holiday if I was you right now.

It's not the same as being at home, but even if it was, you know you've been having trouble staying sober there too, man....

You cant just aim for some nebulous reduction programme .

Alcoholism doesn't work like that - if it did we'd all cut back on our drinking except for weekends, vacations and national holidays and no one would need SR.

I kept drinking for a lot of years because I put all my effort into drinking and no real effort in not drinking....a lot of lip service but no real lasting changes, y'know?

You have the chance to be smarter than me.

If you're serious about this being a test you should be able to build a foolproof recovery action plan before you go,rack up 3 weeks sober time before you go , and come back sober.

I really hope you do that man.
