hello everyone thanks for your replies some very interesting replies maz are you totally teetotal idont even have brandy sauce or chocolate liquiors etc

Virtually tee-total. Thirty years of opening crashed car doors and being knocked over by the smell of drink. Additionally, I used to say that 95% of all calls to the Police after midnight were somehow related to drink. Don,t mind moderate drinking, but in all the hoo-ha about smoking and drugs, excessive drink is the major social evil. Happy days

I very rarely drink anymore - I sometimes have a drink (glass of wine or a vodka and lemonade) if I got out for a meal or similar, but that isn't very often and even then I sometimes prefer orange juice and lemonade or a coke. I do have wine over Christmas, but never very much - just a few glasses usually. I too abused alcohol when I was younger and can't face either the hangover I ALWAYS get or the humiliation the next day when I remember what I got up to! I have learnt my lesson! lol Kaye x

I drink very little - a glass of wine occasionally whilst I'm cooking, or a dry martini. Never have had much of a taste for alcohol or felt the need to get drunk! I did drink more in my 20s but, even then, rarely enough for a hangover!

Jem,Joan, In my book that IS teetotal. Otherwise i'm an alchy.;)) Micheal.

being a single dad,i would just have a couple of drinks,when the girls were fast asleep,now they are older,i still only have a couple of wee drams before bed. bryan.

I'm not a complete teetotaller, I still have a glass of wine at Christmas, and that is my limit. I abused it so much a couple of years ago, I gave in. Don't really like that taste of it now. Gem:)))

Me, to a point anyway, i might pigout maybe twice a year, cannot really drink anymore, don't like the after effects, the occasional fourpack and thats it. Micheal.

I have only just recently made an informed decision to become teetotal and I am starting to reap the benefits already!! loosing weight, velvety skin, clearer thinking, more energy and the list goes on!! Love Susie xx

I wish I was teetotal !! Clare <who has a hangover>

Me.. Me... Me... I am a teetotaller and so is Dave! Maz x
