Oh what I'd give for an ice cold beer right now :-0

Oops, mucked up with my post. I don't drink at home which is why the wines still there. Drink with friends after work etc but its mainly due to long days and not wanting to go home to an empty house.

I probably drink about 8 pints of lager and maybe 5 or 6 vodkas/gins. Usually all in the one night though, so not sure if that's better or worse than spreading it out across the week?

A good week about 20 pints.
A bad week.50 .
Trying to get it down but my boozings been heavy past 20 odd years.

Kids,tired of being bothered by your pesky parents?
Then leave home, get a job & pay your own bills, while you still know everything.

Have a bottle of wine/champagne (sometimes two) with my wife 2/3 times in the week. Drink beer on the weekend, probably 20 bottles on average , sometimes go out on a Wednesday night with my mates and have a load up.
F*ck it, I enjoy it , never had a hangover, doesn't effect my home /work life,don't smoke, eat healthily , don't take any drugs anymore,and go to the gym 5 days a week. If it was making me fat if cut down ( I'm a vain c**t).
Id say I drink less than most of my mates , apart from one who's got a problem with it, and isn't drinking at the moment. But, like him, if I had a problem with it , I'd knock it on the head.
I fu*king love walking out of my house on a Wednesday to meet my pals to talk a load of boll*cks take the piss out of each other and have a laugh , got bundles going on at work and 3 kids indoors , everyone needs a release, or id end up bottling it up and do a Raoul Moat.

How on earth can you go to the gym 5 days a week with 3 kids at home? You must be fantastic at time management. I only have 2 [albeit youngest now 14 months old] and had to knock the gym on the head.

As to OP, beer reserved for football days, country hikes and special nights out. Otherwise, wine all the way. Not [just] poncey - I just process red wine better and enjoy it more.
