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!

Generally a very moderate drinker and can easily go months without drinking. Met up with a bunch of friends today - lots of stories and reminiscing shared, had 3 glasses of wine and suddenly found myself very squiffy for first time in over a year. Is it OK to have a nap?

None.

I could have of course, been plenty of opportunity both in and out of home but I'm just not bothered any more. Besides, I'd rather use the calories on food (chocolate especially this weekend!!)

I’m the same. Absolutely no notion.

Had 3 glasses of wine on Saturday evening. I was at a live music event. It was the first time I'd had a drink since the last one I went to in the first week of January this year.

Yeah, absoutely loads. Might carry on. For ever.

Whiskers4 · 01/04/2024 20:02

We've had a drink every day since Good Friday😊(Will be teetotal until next weekend now). Doesn't sound great having a drink every day, but only bad things I've consumed otherwise are six biscuits and 50g chocolate over four days, don't smoke either.

Aramiss · 01/04/2024 20:05

Yea loads. Love a drink.

Forgot it's Mumsnet though. I'm probably in the minority and slowly killing myself as a functioning alcoholic.

Woahtherehoney · 01/04/2024 20:06

Had one Guinness on Saturday night and that’s it. I came down yesterday with horribly full sinuses and a headache so no more for me until I feel better.

RobbieisWright · 01/04/2024 20:06

Yep!

socks1107 · 01/04/2024 20:11

PossumintheHouse · 01/04/2024 20:17

Not a massive amount, but have had a few. Had two glasses of champagne, two glasses of wine and two vodka and lemonades yesterday. Two vodka and lemonades today.

None.

EventuallyDecluttered · 01/04/2024 21:08

None, I don't tend to drink at home and we haven't been out to pubs or restaurants over the weekend. Last had a drink about a month ago.

No- we haven't had a drink at all.

SaltySeaCat · 01/04/2024 21:11

No none as I’m 15 months alcohol free now thankfully.

Vettrianofan · 01/04/2024 21:12

Lemonade and that's it. Exciting stuff💃

peloton2024 · 01/04/2024 21:13

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

Oooh, you sound like my kind of gal! Halo

Berlinlover · 01/04/2024 21:16

None.

Alicewinn · 01/04/2024 21:16

Not drunk too much (3 glasses of wine) but eaten enough to feed a small village. Diet starts tomorrow

namechangeFeb24 · 01/04/2024 21:16

I hadn’t drunk alcohol in 4 weeks, but I had 2 glasses of fizz on Thursday, Friday and Saturday night, then 1 glass tonight and tomorrow. We are away on holiday!

I won’t drink now until the next social occasion that involves alcohol, I don’t tend to drink at home usually.

EwwSprouts · 01/04/2024 21:17

None. We were out for dinner with friends on Saturday but I was the driver. Don't tend to drink at home. Have eaten too much chocolate though.

ShaunaSadeki · 01/04/2024 21:22

Yes, far too much Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, but have eaten healthily and done plenty of exercise.

doubleshift · 01/04/2024 21:55

drunk

TheWelshposter · 01/04/2024 22:09

I shared a bottle of prosecco with DH over Easter Sunday dinner.

Probably would have a beer tonight but I went out last week for cocktails and really suffered for two days afterwards stomach-wise despite not being drunk at the time. So I don't want to drink on too many nights.
