I'm afraid the challenge is just for people in the UK.

The Irish challenge is no pizza.

:laugh:

I think I'd manage that too, don't eat Pizza very much :p Never shop bought and very very rarely get it as a Take Away because it doesn't agree with Gav.

I have decided to continue until my birthday - quite enjoyed the sobriety and feeling great every morning :laugh:

Obviously I reserve the right to change my mind
I've not had a drink in more than 3 weeks now. My energy levels have gone up 10 fold. And i've been a million times more productive.

And yes, those hangovers. So nice to wake up and feel fresh :laugh:

I think the last alcohol I had was a wee mulled wine at Christmas so turns out I've succeeded at this challenge without even knowing it was a challenge! I'm less of an avid teetotaller than I was a few years back, but I still don't drink often at all... just not part of my life these days I guess :shrug:.

Can't do the pancake challenge as my kids would go ham if we didn't do pancake day at the end of feb. And I'm not cooking them if I can't have one :fist:.

I'm also not avoiding pizza for a month - that's utter madness.

I actually have quite enjoyed the sobriety too and it's been good for the beer belly. I will have a pint after work today but will generally try to have more sober days I think now I have discovered the wonderful world of alcohol free beer

It's all just good intentions of course though
Is there a particular one you would recommend, sometimes I give Mr C a 0% but he is into it straight off, I bought a bottle of Shiraz 0% and after a sip it went straight down the sink, it was vile :yuk:

The nicest ones were Lucky Saint and Brooklyn I think. Big Drop Paradiso is nice if he likes an IPA

I had the Alcohol-free Estrella in a pub and that was really nice but I've never seen it in shops :think:

Just stay away from Becks Blue

MTVN 01-02-2023 01:14 PM
I'm not sure I'd try alcohol free wine :skull:

Never actually heard of it but does sound like a good alternative if you're not drinking
