Very rarely drank at home before lockdown. Now the norm is a dozen cans and watching the 2002 qualifying campaign on YouTube followed by random concerts until 5am. Even bought a can crusher to save space in the green bin!

Not one for drinking at home either.
Last lockdown I manged to go 98 days without a drink and then pubs opened in July.
Haven't drank since Stephens day and 100 days will take me to Easter Monday so I'll probably be able to go beyond that.

Yeah - have little to no interest scooping at home for whatever reason. I'm pretty much an accidental teetotaller these days.

Preach!

There was something quaint in the early days of lockdown about a beer on a Monday night. But that has long worn off, and even on the weekends its repetitive to have a few beers but not in the relaxed environment of a pub or restaurant. The summer is nice because its outdoors and if its with a bbq, even better.

Find it good to have a proper bender every now again. I've had 1 proper drink since last March and I've lost so much weight on my face it's actually crazy

Feck that means an extra 6 days I have to stay out of the pub now.
Just because it's tradition does not make it right
