A week in Stansbury from this Saturday. Weather forecast is nothing short of superb, tides look good too. Fishing, crabbing, squidding, drinking - rinse & repeat.

Please, you've taken the last 8 overs with the old one against the part timers.

...getting past this feeling of back to back day drinking events and walking nearly 14kms in two days doing it.

I decided on January 27 that I'm giving up the piss in exchange for a clean lifestyle. I can't believe the difference in how I feel in general, how much easier it is getting up for work in the morning, Saturday week ago all I drank for the day was water, haven't done that since I stayed at nan's for a day when I was 7.

I still go to the local every Thursday and to their amazement I get a coke zero (they don't even charge me for it), I did go out for a pint and parmi the other night, swapped the beer for softie though.

I didn't want to tell anyone incase I failed but the longer I abstain from alcohol the less I feel like a drink, I've had over a dozen various cans in my fridge the whole time, about 20 bottles of gins/vodka's/bourbons and a full wine rack at my disposal too, it's just not interesting me any more.

Great stuff mate!!!

Absolutely makes a difference. I havent completely abstained but rarely drink more than 2-3 beers in a session these days, no mid-week drinks and my world has changed. First of all i have taken back Sundays, what a day to be alive and 100% throw myself into active Sundays with the family. Sleep is so much better now as well especially with 4:20am wake ups for works.
