Must be a sign of my old age tomtom I didn't have anything to drink - went out at lunchtime with the kids and I was driving - but I am not that bothered really - have to be in the mood usually on holiday and then a nice cool large beer hits the spot - was a big drinker at uni but got it out of my system I think
DTxx
The good news is when I do have a fair few I don't get hangovers these days much to OHs disgust!!0 -
Isn't it weird? I used to drink so much as a student, and in my 20s. Now, its an average of one glass a month! I often think to myself, ooh, I'll have a glass of wine tonight, but I never feel like having it when I actually get there. I have a cup of tea instead

Now *thats* age
