Have you drank much alcohol this weekend?

Had a few drinks Friday/sat. Fancy a bit more wine tonight as not back to work just yet.
Don't normally have this much though unless away on hols!

Zero. Just not fussed about it and how it makes me feel.

MumChp · 01/04/2024 16:33

No. Just pured myself a glass of wine. First alcohol this Easter. Been way to busy to drink.

MeMyCatsAndMyBooks · 01/04/2024 16:33

Thursday & Saturday nights I did.

Going to take a break from it for a while, fed up of feeling rubbish from drink.

SevenSeasOfRhye · 01/04/2024 16:34

Rarely for me, I've drunk none.

Tatas · 01/04/2024 16:35

Not a single drop, quite a few fizzy drinks though 😂

Monkeybutt1 · 01/04/2024 16:35

Yes I've had drinks every day since Thursday, I work hard, exercise a lot and like a drink.

Mimrr · 01/04/2024 16:36

Had a beer on Friday night and a glass of red with Sunday lunch. Used to have a bad daily G&T habit so feel happy with that.

PersonalityofaVacuum · 01/04/2024 16:37

Yes I have. Going to go on a bit of a detox now. I am going to the pub tonight but will be having lemonade and taking the car.

roarrfeckingroar · 01/04/2024 16:37

Way too much. I barely drink these days but it was my birthday, I hosted a BBQ yesterday, I had a birthday lunch on a separate day and today we had an open bottle of champagne left over in the fridge so I've finished it. It's been great but I won't drink for a while now - my face feels dry and my sleep was shite.

Dewdilly · 01/04/2024 16:37

No, nothing. I don’t drink, though.

ArthurHeDoesAsHePleases · 01/04/2024 16:38

Thurs night, Fr night and last night. Weak lager

mrsed1987 · 01/04/2024 16:53

None, but I am 38 weeks pregnant.

The reality is even if I wasn't, I'd probably maybe had had one glass of something, my husband isn't a drinker so it's pretty boring by yourself!

SunnySunnySunny · 01/04/2024 16:53

Zero.

Capmagturk · 01/04/2024 16:54

Yeah we had a drink on Saturday. I don't see an issue if you want another drink when you're off work on holiday.

Perfectlystill · 01/04/2024 16:54

Yep loads, mostly champagne but also gin and red and white wine.

Dacadactyl · 01/04/2024 16:57

Between DH and I we've had 2 bottles of wine. This is a lot more than I'd normally have.

hollyandivyknickers · 01/04/2024 16:58

Yep loads, sunny here. Drank Thursday (fizz) Friday (white and red) Saturday (beer gin red) today (white).

I usually have three nights off a week but love a drink in the sun

Teacakesontheside · 01/04/2024 16:58

I had a glass of red wine last week (my first alcoholic drink in over a year). I've never been a big drinker but I felt awful that night (could be total coincidence) and thought I think I'd rather never have an alcoholic drink again.

MolkosTeenageAngst · 01/04/2024 16:58

None. I only drink socially and haven’t been out with friends who drink this weekend.

QueSyrahSyrah · 01/04/2024 16:59

31 weeks pregnant so none. The weekend has seemed far longer and more productive because of it (in terms of not wasting time hungover, rather than it dragging!).

Sage7 · 01/04/2024 16:59

Have you 'drunk' much alcohol?

Oh sorry mum/English teacher

Way too much 😳. Bottomless brunch with friends on Thursday. Visit to DD and out for drinks/dinner with her on Friday. Wine at home sat night. Out for lunch with DH yesterday.

We are also out tonight but I’m going to drive

BingoMarieHeeler · 01/04/2024 17:02

Nope, not a drop. Just doesn’t occur to me that it’s an option 😄 DH has had a few beers. Just not fussed. Absolutely WISH I had the same attitude towards food!

sprigatito · 01/04/2024 17:03

I also winced at "drank". Sorry. Language matters to me.

I haven't had any, but that's usual for me. I'm not keen on drinking. DH and our adult children have had a few drinks over the weekend, but not to excess.
