I probably am going to get slated here...I drink now and then...maybe a bottle of wine a month with DH...there are SO many threads where people say

Wine helps!

and "Is it wine o clock?"

and it seems like a real enabling kind of culture here...."Oh 4.30's not too early for wine!"

and that kind of thing.

AIBU to think that it's an unhelathy atitude?

[ducks]

But yes...it was about debate and I would have had more part in it if the dc hadn't been up and down all night....

Ok ok, to be fair, after reading the thread as suggested by waterlego, who I thank! I think I may have been a bit out of hand and maybe jumped the gun. But, the way I read your initial post seemed a little bit 'provoking'. I apologise to you TheSpokenNerd and anyone else I may have offended. I am big enough to apologise when I see I have been an idiot may have been out of line! :o

I kinda ignored the worship bit in the title - but did you know that you can buy a 'minister-ship' title on the internet (obvs).

I'm an ordained minister of the Church of Coffee Grin

There are cultural differences here. E.g., brutal drink about 3 times as much as Americans. (I'm brit.)
