30 days

Loughborough 2:2 with Hons

I've given up both booze and sugar for a month. I'm 48 hours in and doing fine so far, thanks for asking.

The month of May. 31 days. Should have chosen February.

You'd think a skim read of this would help, but it just made me thirsty, especially the video. At a rough estimate this will have been the longest I've gone without a drink since the early 90s... cherub... and the longest without sugar since the early 80s... and about the only way I can see myself getting through it is by publicising the event, followed by gratuitous self-congratulations.

And yeah, I know, people wean themselves away from much harder substances, like crack and cocaine and caffeine and child care, but we all live in our own reality, and mine is a beer and biscuits free existence for the foreseeable future.

Anyway, the countdown begins. Off to mix myself a water with a slice of lemon.
