I’ve never drunk and driven which is (ironically) a function of what I’ve done for a living over that time and that certainly helps. The problem is that I live opposite a Tesco with a 24 hour licence which means I’m not prevented from having a drink whenever I get home, whatever time that is. After a long, stressful day I sometimes need a drink to wind down, which I never did until recently, so in that sense my drinking has got worse this year (plus all the personal stuff I had to deal with early last year hasn’t helped). That said, I go out far less than I used to, as we discussed when we met up.You are doing well. I suppose you are helped by the driving you do though not by the company you keep!
The other issue is that (as usual) I’ve ballooned in December and stopping drinking is the single most effective way of reversing that.
As to the company I keep, I’m taking the Fifth!
