    Kirwan and MvJ have inspired me by their challenge (I say their but in actual fact it's Kirwans challenge to MvJ)<br />
    <br />
    They are going to try and beat each others booze free periods by a day each time.  It's currently at 13 days.<br />
    <br />
    So far I'm on 2, but will try and get to 14

    I'd just like to say, before my websence shuts me off the Fern in 11mns, that G&T's are a girl's drink. Kirwan should be ashamed of himself for having them in the first place. <br />
    <br />
    In other words, not drinking a G&T for 13 days is no great achievment in my book.

    That certainly is a fair comment.<br />

    I realise the 6N is on, and I will obviously start from1 every time we meet up for a drink.  Still a good idea

    I'm in for this. 1000 curses on Kirwan for setting the initial bar so high though. But when I beat him the victory will be sweet indeed. Then MvJ is off to the pub immediately to celebrate. <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /><br />

    Unfortunately I have taken a bit of a tumble tonight--cue Kirwan: I told you so  😁, being unable to get to sleep, so I have cranked two scotches. This, I hope, will put me in good stead for a dawn run tomorrow. That is only a fair trade off I am telling myself...<br />
    <br />
    That lapse aside, I have not wanted a drink mid-week for the past couple of weeks. So I've mastered it mid-week; the problem as Kirwan has pointed out is in the pub when the rugby is on. Unfortunately I have hellos and farewells on each of the next 3 weekends, but after that look out! All it takes is two booze-free weekends and the record will be smashed. Shortly afterwards, hopefully MvJ will be as well  <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /><br />

    Just  thought about it and if you start on a thursday and get to 14 days you can then celebrate big style on the Friday night!!!!<br />
    <br />
    If you start Monday, you'll probably beat the record by 4 days and that's not fair  :happy:

    Now that is good thinking. Together Hooroo, our brain-power and collective rat-like cunning will defeat the mighty Kirwan and his effing will-power.  <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

    ooh goody, if we team up does that mean 7 days by both of us amounts to a new recoed???  I can do that with one hand tied behind my back (which makes it bloody difficult for twist-offs)  :happy:

    I'm not worried, neither of you will get close <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> MVJ will never start....<br />
    <br />
    And PdP, I went for the lowest damage drink - I don't normally drink them.

    This is true.  To be fair, you did avoid hitting me last time.  I expect another gentlemanly game again!!!

    Have arranged to leave early so I can walk and get a bit warmer than last time. Should stop the old man syndrome I had last time.

    Hey, I walked home in the snow the other day. Bad weather has to be ignored in this country.
