Not yet Karter - but its only day 8. Its quite a revelation actually as usually I spend the weekend wishing I could catch up on some lost sleep but this weekend seemed full of energy. I suppose that's the way it should be.


Dinner Party on the 27th though so thats my target finishing date. The Mrs can cook, I'll get trolleyed.

Hey guys.

Am new to this forum but this thread jumped out at me! Congrats to everyone who is attempting (and succeeding) with No-drink-vember. I always try and stay off the sauce in March and November.... no idea why but it's a good challenge!


If you want to hit November with a double-positive-whammy (DPW) then think about upping your exercise as well as staying off the booze. The results will be incredible, trust me. By putting the extra energy you have,from lack of hangovers etc, into exercise ,you'll make a huge difference to your fitness and general well being......or you can look at it as allowing yourself more drinks over the Christmas period :-)


If anyone wants any fitness advice, help setting goals, class ad Personal Training information then please give me a shout.

Good luck for the next 3 weeks!

I am a bit of a late starter on this one. (Only started as of Monday 8th). However, my Christmas party isn't until the 9th December, so I will be doing a full month.



What's been the worst part for people so far?



I have a night out planned (ages ago) with an old friend in Krakow this weekend, and am almost dreading telling her I am not drinking.

  • 2 weeks later...

Day 21 and still clean as a whistle. 6 days to go until 27th :) Have noticed an improvement in the overdraft this month, many early nights, and a very boring time all round. Have found it easier than previous years though, so thats a good thing.


December is almost fully booked in nights out already. Christmas is coming!


Anyone else doing this or am I on my own?

MickMac - I am sorry, I have been an epic fail. Something fairly stressful happened to me on 1st November and I couldn't not have a drink.


Clearly I am not going to give up for the month of December (although I suppose that would be a sort of Iron Man Challenge in the world of drinking abstension and mebbe something I should contemplate) - so January will be it for me.


Although I am intrigued by Melvyn's first 7 days of each month off method. Perhaps I'll make that my NYR.


Jolly well done to you though :)-D

    • You can take any old clothes or any other fabric like tea towels  to Primark stores. They all have collection boxes. Any old clothes and rags that can't be reused are recycled for other uses like toy stuffing and insulation 
    • Got loads of frogspawn.  Don't have that much success as can't keep it in the pond as the newts eat it.  I took the first clump out yesterday and put it in a bucket with netting on top.  The loads more appeared.,... Last year I kept it like this and then transferred to some large plant saucers when they were near to walking onto land.  Had to top up the water, provide shade as they will have cooked in the sunshine, and fed with boiled cabbage, kale or other green stuff. I got a few froglets.  two or three years ago I picked up some spawn from someone in SE22 who had a whole nursery, numerous ponds, in their back garden. Never seen any baby newts or spawn, maybe have ten or more, but I know they go roaming.
    • Newts, ducks, from my understanding cats and dogs don't eat frogspawn, they may eat tadpoles.  Continuing this conversation on the nature thread.
    • You lose the moral high ground as soon as you call people clowns.  I don't know why so many of you have to bring the conversation down,  I've made the same point on other threads.  Have a look at what you posted - do you think insults made your view any more valid?  Sadly too many discussions descend in this way.  As said this applies to many others who post here. I can, and do, complain, about a variety of goods and services.  In the last 20 years or so try to keep it civil.  And look back on some of my past behaviours with some embarrassment.
