28/30 and it's cuddly penguin chicks day (not a common expression) and 299 in a row. Ooh. 300 tomorrow to state the obvious. Gold Star Day Monday, that's a first.
I tried some Aldi alc' free pilsner. Not great but OK, better than Heineken 0.0 which tastes like fizzy water that someone's waved a can of beer at. Pointless. I have some Sainte Ettienne (also from Aldi) to try later. I notice that alc'free gin is £20 a bottle. Just...why bother?
I don't understand the whole alc'free gin either. I'm not saying I'm doing this to save money, but it is an helpful bonus if that makes sense.
I wouldn't mind trying some of this alcohol free spirit without having to spend the £20. Does it taste like the real thing? If not, why not just drink fizzy water with flavourings in?Pink Sproglettes born 2008 and 2010

Grey here this morning, but very warm! 3 -
@RobM99 my other half really likes the Aldi pilsner. Just as well we all have different tastes eh? I got a mix pack of AF "shots" to try and really liked the hibiscus and rosehip gin so bought a bottle which I wouldn't have done without trying it first. Although it's not cheap, I'll only have one or two during an evening so the bottle lasts ages.
27/27 for me tonight. Woohoo, made the target with a few days to spare!
Going to be a chicken and.make my February target 26 please x3 -
