When the day is done I like a big cold glass of white wine. A friend of mine told me it’s too much Hmm
I wait for the kids to be asleep, they are not babies, it’s not every night. Maybe three times a week.
It’s just something I like to do after a busy day to unwind. Is it really that bad? Does anyone else like a glass of wine after the day? I don’t get drunk as I don’t like a hangover so I’m wise not to have to much.

Another bloody thread where the OP can’t work out if she drinks more than the recommended units per week.

Another bloody thread where the OP can’t work out if she drinks more than the recommended units per week.

Hmm The OP's question implied that she was asking if it it was a bad/irresponsible thing to do 3 nights a week when in charge of a child, prompted by a comment by a friend. She didn't ask if it was within NHS health guidelines.

You poor poor soul, Isetan, what nasty fucker held your face to the computer/iPad and forced you to read this thread? I'd definitely report them to the Police! I hope you can receive the appropriate support, as there really are some dicks out there. 😒 What's? No one forced you? Then dfod.

How big is a glass, how many bottles per week do 3 glasses translate into?

I do pretty much the same. Just a few nights a week when I finish work. I look forward to it and enjoy it.
What you are doing sounds absolutely fine to me. Enjoy.Wine

The government guidelines are bullshit - and sexist bullshit at that. They were made up at random and take no account of body weight, age, etc.

Alcohol is only a problem when it's a problem.

Yabu drinking wine full stop! I've yet to find one that doesn't taste like vinegar, I've clearly not got a good wine palet!

I'm currently drinking a 50ml glass of Rhubarb and Rose Gin with ice. My last drink was a pint of mild Saturday morning.
