And slightly tipsy. Vodka and coke turned into vodka and Fanta fruit twist as I ran out of coke. Its really nice.
I'm a bit tipsy.
Anyone else fancy a drunk thread? Probably not Grin you're all much more sensible than I am 😂

I'm in and I haven't decided what's for dinner so this might be interesting as I've only had a greggs sausage roll today.

I did have an interview this morning so I can leave the NHS and I've managed to get the job with a lovely local family run business so I guess I'm celebrating (any excuse)

@LostForWords2021 well done!

Congratulations @LostForWords2021!

I guess it is a bit late to call it day drinking now but I'm about to pour myself a big toffee apple Bailey's on ice...I'm still working my way through the Christmas drinks!

Yay, thank you. I'm going to have a few (bottles) glasses and then press send on the resignation email.

Toffee apple Baileys on ice does sound rather a tummy.

I’ll be in bed before Casualty starts at this rate Grin Wine

I am on day 3 of Covid.

I feel constantly hungry but annoyingly I am gagging for a boozy drink!

I havent because that can’t be the sensible thing to do…unless anyone has scientific theories that having a wee drink will help my condition? 🧐

Mimibaker hope you are feeling OK. Flowers I am desperate to start drinking but have to pick up a child from laser quest. As soon as I have them in the house I am having a G+T! GinGinGin

Fuck it, I drank wine. Actually, I slept loads when I had it. Sometimes didn't get up till 3pm and then had a night cap 4 hours after waking.

You probably shouldn't listen to me though Grin

HerRoyalHappiness · 29/01/2022 18:12

@HadaVerde surely drinking can't hurt Grin

Congrats to all those expecting or nursing new babies! And to @LostForWords2021 - great news!

Been a busy day of life admin shite. Dinner is cooking, make up is off, pjs are on and the bar is most definitely open!

Cheers!

(The old Friday Night Drunk threads should be resurrected!)

OrlandointheWilderness · 29/01/2022 18:16

I've got a nice pint of cider now!!!

Whatwhywhenwhere · 29/01/2022 18:22

Wait til the fanta runs out, all you have left is milk and you are too pissed to go to the shopGrin. Or maybe that just happens to me

IsThisIt2021 · 29/01/2022 18:25

I’m eyeing up all the drinks in the house counting down the minutes until the DC are in bed so I can relax with one. Don’t have an issue with them seeing me drink a glass but after the week I’ve had it wouldn’t be relaxing enough. In the meantime it’s coffee for me.

DuckonaBike · 29/01/2022 18:27

It’s now well past 6pm, so it’s not day drinking any more, it’s just drinking. Cheers!

HerRoyalHappiness · 29/01/2022 18:28

@Whatwhywhenwhere I have milkshake so I can make vodka mudshakes Grin

They actually sound delicious Grin

MuchTooTired · 29/01/2022 18:38

I’m not drinking, but have had a shitty day and would much rather have been day drinking and having fun. Should my children ever go to sleep, I might consider a little bit of night drinking!

LostForWords2021 · 29/01/2022 18:40

Mudshake?

Grin

My very adult daughter has just called, she has day drank to her old mums former standards and needs to come home, she just wanted to check I hadn't locked her out...

It's not even 7pm yet. Does anyone want bets on how many times she tells me she loves me Grin

peboh · 29/01/2022 18:42

I've not long gotten home from a liquid lunch with my friend. Now I'm going to have a couple gins extra before calling it a night.

linerforlife · 29/01/2022 18:46

Day drinking is my absolute fav.

HerRoyalHappiness · 29/01/2022 18:58

@LostForWords2021 mudshakes are delicious. Grin

I drank when I had Covid!

General consensus seems to be that a medicinal tipple is ok then!

I have food being delivered, once I’ve eaten I may have a nightcap.
