Can’t decide myself. I’m not going out but might pour myself a small glass. Also thinking if I don’t drink anything I will feel clear headed in the morning which is always a bonus. Will you be having a drink?

'Well the moment passed so I had a cup of tea instead!'

Look forward to a good night's sleep and a clear head tomorrow 😊

I had a glass of white wine when I watched Strictly. I didn't sleep very well last night because of the wind, so I stopped at one glass or I'd have been chin on chest, out for the count.

Had a glass of red. I tend to have one glass of red on Saturday night and that's it for the week unless I'm going out. I buy those mini bottles so I dont have to open a big bottle and waste it

I'm away this weekend and bought a bottle of Baileys with me with the intention of having a few and listen to the storm, in reality I had half a glass of it yesterday and couldn't be bothered tonight.

Alcohol goes out of date in our house, I like the idea of it more than the actual drinking, I wish I could feel the same about chocolate as I'd be a couple of stone lighter.

Not for me! I rarely drink these days as dd works weds-sat evenings and I’m her taxi driver.
Fine by me for the most part as I prefer waking up fresh.
However I’ve had a migraine today although dd isn’t working so even though I could have had a drink there’s no way I wanted one! Sod’s law hey? Grin

Yes because I'm out to dinner and also on holiday Grin. I've had two cocktails and I'm done.

I ended up having a pint of Guinness despite not planning to drink! ( A black Friday deal was on )

I have a cold and I'm going to enjoy a hot toddy of whiskey and orange. I don't drink enough to have a hangover the next day, its just not enjoyable.

A hot toddy is a wonderful thing! A little bit of magic when you are feeling rough.
