I tend to indulge in a drink or two every now and again like alot of other hard working people in this country 

I wouldn't call myself a big drinker but is that REALLY true!! In Ireland it's not a big deal to head out and get drunk, its actually quiet normal and it's almost strange if you don't drink. Either you are on antibiotics or pregnant because it's hard to believe that anybody would want to head out and NOT drink in this country. Does that make us alcoholics??? We sure don't feel like we are but when you actually think about it......it's questionable.

After holidays myself and John decided to stop drinking for a little while. Now when you work hard all week and you don't socialise that much anymore, one of the only vices you have is a little drink at the weekend while you get chill out on the couch. So for us this is HUGE.

Now here is the really silly part. We decided not to drink until the 17th of September which is Yes.... only 17 days. A friend of ours is getting married and it would be crazy to go to a social event and not drink.! Wouldn't it? Which really makes me think that we have a problem  Why does two weeks not drinking seem like a massive task, it shouldn't be a big deal. So let's see how we get on, will we be able to last, god knows one stressful day at work could break us :))

I'll keep you all posted xx

P.S I've decided to give up coffee also........ So if you see me in the morning and I'm cranky, sorry in advance ;)
