Good work knocky. It becomes addictive to me to try and beat my month on month drink days - so I know exactly what you mean
by buzzing. It's quite fun beating yourself, if you pardon the expression.
Mr Banana, I'm not taking the piss. Far from it. That is a beautifully and poetically written post. Seriously mate.

Pretty impressive!
I call the past: "The bad old days" and, as you say Bozza, I don't want to go back there; the desire is quite strong and
now that I have seen the huge benefits (weight loss, sleeping better and health wise), I'm hooked sort of thing.
I downloaded the 'drink free days' app on my phone (suggested on here I think - thanks whoever it was) and I really like the
way it sits there quietly and it's on me to ensure I keep my pledges (6 days a week with no drinking basically).
It's funny that now I have a string of pledges achieved...
My Dad had to give up cider for health reasons and hasn't drunk for over 5 years.
He said something interesting which is that, to him, alcohol when he smells it now reminds him of the smell of
poison. I guess that's true and says it all.
