Dry January. Strung out in heaven's high. 19:20 - Feb 1 with 6543 viewsDiscodroids

Just on my first beer of 2022. A Jupiler.

It's been so fu cking boring... hitting an all time low around the 20th of January consulting the Hemlock society book 'The art of self deliverance' Saturday night while watching Ant and Dec chunder out their carcinogenic synapse crushing sawtooth white noise tourture .

Thought about constructing my own Soylent Green symphony suicide suite when my chigwell mother in law called unannounced last sunday mornng at 9am with TWO 1000 piece puzzles designed by some Dutch Sex Fiend.

Lager. Love it.

PS. My first dry January, Had to be done i put on 2 stone of timber last year and look like a hybrid mutation of Popeye Doyle and Grouty from 'Porridge'

Respect to anyone who completed the 31 days.

I had my first pint in the Marriners today, i approached the bar well excited shaking like i was cast down from the firmament upon the celestial oort cloud st vitus dancing in the style of sid vicious in his death throes in the chelsea hotel, cheyne stoking on the Nancy Spungen salty grains of skag .

after all that , The cu nts only had Fosters, Kronenberg, Stella, Carlseberg and carling on tap. What a let down.

No fun.

If I could only drink Carling, Fosters or Carlsberg after a month off the booze, I could not be held accountable in law for my actions.

Great work doing dry January though. 👍🏽

One of the lucky ones. Still weigh the same as I did when I left school over 50 years ago. Any weight put on is lost in days.

That wangs chung and no mistake.

I can imagine you fixing the barman with a flinty gaze, slapping the cash on the bar and snarling 'Do it' through gritted teeth / clenched buttocks.

'What do we want? We don't know! When do we want it? Now!'

I Tried real ale for the first time tonight in old Leigh... I can't get along with it.

i was cornered in the bar by half a dozen real ale drinkers o n the piss after dry january.They looked more suited to be sitting in portakabins munching on potted meat mighty white sandwiches employed as cost accountants for a briar pipe manufacturers producing time and motion studies.

The sort of blokes that everyone avoids at the christmas party. The sort of blokes that apologises to an office chair if he bumps into it. the sort of blokes that plays air guitar at the office xmas Party throwing his head back in ecstasy as he mimes to the blue oyster cult before vomiting in the ashtray, displaying his child like meatus to the office junior after a can of Davids old peculier.

Actually, they were great blokes who gave me an education on craft beer. Opened my mind to be fair. Got Introduced to Adnams Southwold on draft. Magic.

Back in my running days, I'd go teetotal for four months before a race; so Dry January is not really a challenge. While I don't drink anywhere near the quantities of yore, I am of the view that if you cannot pass the booze up for a month, then maybe that's a warning sign.

That being said, my iftar to break my fast included a creamy pint of Guinness and a glass of blanquette.

that is a pissy selection of tap offerings!

id like to say 'well done' but I am morally opposed to DJ as it just seems to be asking for trouble and having seen the fat lot of good it did to friends who went straight from DJ 2020 to lockdown, I vowed never to fall into that trap.

hope you managed to shift a nit of timber and the progressive house kept you sane!

Whatever happened to Mild? I used to drink it in Manchester in the 80s, disappeared at the same time as light and bitter.

Good work Disco - you deserve a few carefully aged craft delicacies after that, or 6 Kronenberg, whichever's closer.

I went to a specialist week before last who told me my presenting cardiac issue had now mostly resolved itself but he didn't like my belly. How rude.

Told me he swears by the 16-8 fasting diet so Ive been on that since then, 5 days a week anyway. Basically you don't eat after 8pm and you don't eat breakfast. I like the simplicity but am of only limited use to man or beast before noon.

The right moment has arrived,and I have to say that it’s good stuff.It tastes a bit watery compared to the real thing,but certainly the best alcohol free beer I’ve tasted.

Franziskaner alcohol free is a bloody good effort. Their weissbier is great too. From the good people at Lidl (and elsewhere but let's face it, Lidl is cheaper).

Beer: proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. Well, that and QPR, eh? Eh? QPR? Yeah?
