velo army Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Not enough Drynuary chat on this thread. Good luck to all of you attempting this. I'll also give it a go. My birthday is on Burns Day but I'm staffing a training weekend which is totally sober. Ridiculous timing . Might actually do this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Central Belt Caley Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 I done this last year after a particularly bad Boxing Day hangover and ended up going a bit further and not having an alcoholic drink til April. Think it was 111 days or something like that Best of luck to anyone trying it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salt n Vinegar Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 No chance. My birthday is in January and we usually have a bit of a session for Burns' night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat(The most tip top) Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 17 hours ago, Clangers said: Last year I did dry January but drank on the first until midnight as my defence was everyone toasts the bells, my mates claimed I hadn’t done it. Solution not toast or count Feb first? I figure that it starts when you wake up on the first of January which also means it ends when you wake up on the first of February as opposed to at midnight 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 1. It’s a great thing to do 2. Folk going on about it is also really annoying 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 I will be aff it as of the 3rd, as I attempt to lose some of the weight added in the last fortnight. A dry vast majority of January, with no fanfare. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsdad Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 My only experience of no alcohol beer was Tennants Zero which tasted awful. Picked up an Aldi St Etienne zero alcohol lager today and having it with tea. It is actually quite nice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venti Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Think stopping drinking at once is pretty dangerous. Causes seizures & stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye only if you're getting blackout every other day. I daresay such folk won't be in a rush to actually do dry January. This thread will be for the dilettantes who only get pished once or even twice a week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
