I’m two glasses of Prosecco in but making me sleepy rather than perking up’ think will have a wine with dinner then that’s my lot (lightweight these days!)

I'm on my second Bucks Fizz 🍾🥂

TheLightSideOfTheMoon · 25/12/2024 12:46

I’ve had two cups of tea so far! Planning to have many more.

DarkForces · 25/12/2024 12:47

Just coffee so far. Having a Prosecco and wine with lunch

IsChristmasOverYetPlease · 25/12/2024 12:47

None as yet as I am in a house alone with 2 teetotal people.

There’s booze here but it’s not much fun drinking with one person giving the judgemental side eye and the other a bit miffed that they can no longer drink due to illness.

EmpressaurusKitty · 25/12/2024 12:47

Two Lemsips & an orange juice so far.

ChaosHol1 · 25/12/2024 12:49

None yet il wait till guests arrive at 3pm. I won't be keeping track. Have a merry Xmas everyone.

ChronicallySleepy · 25/12/2024 12:49

I've just made a rum & lemonade. Had a shot glass worth of Bailey's late this morning. Will update as the day goes on

NunyaBeeswax · 25/12/2024 12:49

Zero

I don't drink. So everyone that does, feel free to have an extra one for me.. 🤪

Christmasfizz · 25/12/2024 12:53

i thought I’d be the lightweight but making me glad have stopped at two. Happy Christmas to all (cheers with a tea or a fizz)

None as I’m pregnant. Normally the fizz would be opened at 11am. I’ll be having a couple of non alcoholic beers instead!

Twitwootoo · 25/12/2024 12:55

I had a coffee first thing and am just having a nice cup of tea whilst DP and DS are at the pub.will have a couple of glasses of wine later as have friends coming for Boxing Day and that’s likely to involve a lot more booze

Uricon2 · 25/12/2024 12:55

Second (v tiny glass) of sloe gin (I have been awake since 5)

I'd usually be on the champagne by now but my hernia is acting up and I don't want to annoy it further!

Can't imagine having much more than another couple of liqueurs and a glass of red with dinner.

Merry Christmas to all, drinkers and non drinkers!

AteTooMuchx · 25/12/2024 12:55

One baby Guinness so far. Will also keep posted as the day goes on!

Devilsmommy · 25/12/2024 12:56

Only tea and coffee so far but once toddler is in bed me and DH have got a few bottles of wine to share😊

Uricon2 · 25/12/2024 12:57

(Imagines update posts deteriorating into
"aoafh ..ammmr uuwuhbgw...drinkkk" as day progresses Grin)

CoastalCalm · 25/12/2024 12:57

Probably none , I’ve had a glass bottle of Coke which is a Christmas Day only indulgence and now back on lime squash. I might have a vodka lime and soda later

Berlinlover · 25/12/2024 13:00

None, I’m just out of hospital after an infection post stoma reversal surgery.

IbizaToTheNorfolkBroads · 25/12/2024 13:00

None

I'm at my in laws for a few days.
They don't drink. To be honest, they barely eat. The food and drink treats will be all the better when we get home tommorow evening.

Soccermumamir · 25/12/2024 13:00

Just coffee so far lol Will have a tipple with my soaked brandy Christmas cake that my mum made me, later on 😆🎅🎄

MiddleAgedDread · 25/12/2024 13:01

None yet.
Will be having as many as I can get away with.

Soccermumamir · 25/12/2024 13:02

Driving to the cinema tomorrow as well so can't drink too much. One will do me later on 😊

Lesina · 25/12/2024 13:06

A lot of coffee and an Alcohol Free mimosa so far. Will be on the alcohol free beers later. Don’t drink alcohol anymore as I was piling on weight. Feel better for it :)

TubeScreamer · 25/12/2024 13:06

I’ll have 2 or 3 glasses of wine this evening.

we eat in the evening, and I don’t do daytime drinking because it makes me feel rubbish

EggandStress · 25/12/2024 13:09

A spoonful of Bucks Fizz marmalade. I think that will be it for me today - maybe a chocolate liqueur later.
I'm such a lightweight these days that if I drink during the day I get a headache and want to go to sleep.
I hope everyone else has a nice day, whether drinking or not.

Pancakeflipper · 25/12/2024 13:09

Someone have a huge glass of wine for me please! In fact have another..

On cancer treatment so not had a drink for a while but consultant said I can have a small glass of something today. Opting for a G&T with my eldest child this evening. Lemon is sliced!
