Go sober October - anyone manage it?

[HalifaxSeagull]

I lasted booze free for 2 weeks, it was loads harder than I thought...

Anyone else try / succeed / fail like me?!

Its impossible to enjoy a day out at the footy without booze, IM OUT!

 

[dazzer6666]

Pffffft. No.

 

[Silkster365]

Yes completed it. Was way easier than expected and alcohol free beer has come on a LONG way

 

[Garage_Doors]

Most months are easy as I don't drink, only when on holidays but as i'm in Spain for a week I had a 1/2 with a meal as the temp is in the high 20's so no I failed which is disappointing.

 

[Seagull on the wing]

I did it...well till 10.30 that morning...

 

[Bladders]

No .

Its easier to grow a tash one month later, whilst getting pissed.

Well, wrong direction, we've not always seen eye to eye, but 100% "this"

Well it made me realise how bad we really are at the moment!

 

[shaolinpunk]

I found it incredibly easy.

Then again, I don't drink anyway so it wasn't anything out of the ordinary

What do you mean complete it? Still a day to go!?!

I drank once but in my defense it was a friends party which was fancy dress and I bought myself a golden ticket to do so. Two other people bought me golden tickets which I didn't use.

Raised £740 to date. Anyone else fancies sponsoring me (*cough* [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] *cough*) please feel free. https://www.gosober.org.uk/profile/philblackman

 

[Frutos]

No problem for me.

I'm not a fan of Becks Blue, but in Spain I had some San Miguel sans alcohol which was actually ok...

Being almost tee-total, this is one of the happier challenges in life.

I did not even realise it was non drinking month. What with Mothers Day, Fathers Day, Grandparents Day, Birthdays, Stop smoking, Breast awareness week, Tourettes Day, Pancake Day, St. Swithin's Day,Easter, Xmas, Pride week, Remembrance, Longest/Shortest Day, Clocks back, clocks forward etc etc.... i felt that seeing as October was fairly quiet apart from Halloween at the end of the month, then it was probably the right time to have a few scoops to celebrate before being completely sober to get ready for other events, where a few scoops would come to the for.

 

[portslade seagull]

Needed a few drinks after watching our toothless performances so no I did'nt

Managed it for 16 days and found it surprisingly easy - then went to Dublin for the weekend to see my favourite band....... ....and the wheels came off rather badly!!
