Title: Is this actually possible? Post by: ItsMrAlex2u on April 08, 2009, 10:35:15 PM My wife pointed me in the direction of this tonight. Obviously I have seen it and ignored it many times before, but I am seriously questioning whether its possible unless you become a monk or perhaps get marooned on a desert island

Alcoholic anyone? One bottle a night is hardly alchoholic. agreed..but if you're thinking it's not possible to do less than that...I reckon it might be a bit of a problem.

Post by: thetank on April 13, 2009, 08:35:52 PM If I wasn't allowed more than two pints of lager tops per day for the rest of my life, I wouldn't be too bothered.
Would be a bit of a shame, coz I like the odd blow out at new year and stuff, but it wouldn't be the end of my life. Title: Re: Is this actually possible?
