It can be really annoying, having to justify our choice not to drink can't it? I often used the "love too, but I'm taking antibiotics" excuse, but lately I just say "because I'll feel better tomorrow if I don't". Then I change the subject. I know that some of my friends like me drinking, because it justifies them getting ratted....tough! :eek: Sorry, if that sounds selfish, but I really think sometimes we have to be!

Thing is I know exactly who will be the biggest pain in the !!! about it.

I'm considering saying "Look mate, last time I drank at a family party, I woke up the next morning in bed with your girlfriend".

I think that might shut him up, heheheh.

I don't drink a lot anyway, but have had to go to a lot of parties recently and have said i am on a Gordon Brown alcohol budget...so they are happy for me not to buy a round and i sup lemon and lime all night long.

Edit to say that's a good one GP.

Hey, nice one, its a better than a kick in the crown jewels anyway

If you'ld had a big win I was gonna suggest you shared it with everyone on the thread but as it is, we wouldn't even have enough for a bottle of dandelion and burdock each, even the cheap stuff from Asda
