Time for a detox

I like beer! Ok, that’s it. I’ve admitted it!

Australia’s climate is very conducive to drinking vast quantities of alcohol and I have to say I’ve been downing litres of the stuff.

Centuries ago when I first started seeing the missus I was happy to have 1 or 2 bottles of Becks. Gee chuck in half a bottle of wine and I’d be legless.

Fast forward 10 years and I’m happy to drink between 4 - 6 bottles of beer a night. It’s not the weak stuff either, since arriving in Australia I’ve developed a taste for a pale ale called ‘Coopers‘. This stuff contains 6.3% alcohol so it’s fair to say it hits the spot!

I can’t actually remember the last time I didn’t have a drink. Chuck in the odd work do or the odd night the missus decides to have a glass of wine and I’m drinking to much.

I’ve decided therefore to have a break from the booze. Not sure how long it’ll last but last night was my first night ‘dry’.

So. You have been warned! When you start to read irrational and short tempered blog entries in the days to come then that’s why
