No Drink January
Today is Monday 31st of Jan
That means it has been 31 days since I’ve touched any alcohol. I feel strangely proud of myself. Go me.
In other news I had a rather good weekend. Friday i went straight from work to Manchester for the TNA iMPACT Tour. Which was a little disappointing. Although i did get to see The Naaaaaaature Boooooy Ric Flair style and profile as well as give a low blow to...

Civil society may be dissolving, governments are in crisis across Europe and significant parts of the inhabited world are either under water or on fire, but it’ll all be fine as long as nobody disrupts the royal wedding.

The Year So Far…
As “No Drink January” is almost at the midway point i thought i would do a quick re-cap of the last 2 weeks. So far it’s been a right royal laugh on the whole, NYE was brilliantly fun and New Years Day involved the obligitory Chinese take away, just what you need after drinking a bit too much the day before. The bank holiday Monday was a good way to start...

Last Year (2010)
Was a good’un. It had some brilliant highs and some shattering lows. I’m trying to get something together so I can do a bit of a write up. We’ll see how it goes.
