I'm 24 and haven't had one alcoholic drink this year at all, and i used to drink several times a week.  I decided to cut out the booze primarily because of health reasons, but i don't miss it one bit, you get used to it, and now the thought of alcohol is just not appealable anymore.

Sounds remarkably similar to Tosh.

Once a month i have a window round near a tobys carvery and i have my lunch there (well my only meal in day as its quite large) and I wash it down with a beer. Then for the rest of the month very little apart from perhaps one or two nights in a month a little tipple of whiskey.  By that i mean an 18yr bottle of laphroaig, which i have a single, neat and drink it slowly. But to show how little, one bottle would last a year or longer.

So not T total but quite a rare drinker

What's wrong with you?

I drink more than I should.
I do all the cooking (always have). I used to have a stressful job and found cooking relaxed me, the only problem is I always have a glass of red when i'm cooking. And obviously that ends up as 2 or 3. Good cook though  ;D
I got diagnosed with Coeliac disease this year (which means GLUTEN FREE; no wheat, barley, rye or oats), which also means no beer, lager or guiness at all! But I can drink Cider and I do. Not a good mix with red wine.
I should cut down a bit so we'll see how that goes.  ;D

Thanks Nathan I did know.
It actually tastes ok but at £4 per bottle it's like everything 'gluten free', it's 'kin expensive.

Don't drink at all. When the hangovers last longer than the joy of been drunk its time to stop. Stopped a long time back for me.

Evening chaps,

5 months ago I decided to stop drinking and lose a bit of weight. Mainly because I was almost 21 stone and the 1000 calories in beer a night I was having a night weren't helping,

Today I was speaking to another window cleaner and he commented that I'd lost quite a bit of weight (4 stone nearly), and asked how I'd done it. I told him that I'd just cut out the booze. His response was "how can you be a windy and not drink".

5 months ago I'd have agreed but obviously I don't anymore lol. Are there any other window cleaners on here who are teetotal? I know Tosh, Trippy and Frank are but is there anyone else?

Yes. Me.

The weak can't drink it more like because they get addicted to it and don't know when to stop  ;)
