Dryatholon / Dry January

You’ve probably heard about such things

A test of willpower by giving up alcohol for January

31 days - I’m going to give it a go

Such campaigns are related to Cancer Research and other charities

To keep things simple I thought I’d just ask if anybody felt inclined to just pop a quid or two into the DDK pot

Back from the pub at lunchtime

2 sparkling waters and pool champion for the 2nd week running

Maybe not drinking does have its advantages!
