13/27 for me today please
Unfortunately, I'm sore and it was a tipping point of aches and pains so I've had a duvet day today.
I was smugly able to answer "one glass this year" when asked how much alcohol I drank - ahead of a liver function blood test tomorrow.

What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?
