Trepidation has kicked in. Trying to explain where I am coming from to a mod, I fear being stretched out on an anthill while lightly smeared with honey, then soused in a vat of vinegar until various vital appendages drop off.

 

It can be arranged :whistling:

I'm sure it can. Aren't you the one who knows more than he should about electricity?

I have a problem with Puritanical, Authoritarian, Hypocritical Governments using the COVID19 outbreak as an excuse to tell the population what they can and cannot do.

that sounds like an alcohol problem to me...

I've just done a bit of Googling, and you have succeeded in frightening the c##p out of me - sir.

 

No, TENS not CPAP!

 

An entirely different effect and the mask gets in the way.

I don't trust anyone who doesn't want to socialize not sharing a beer,  unless they have an acceptable reason. 

Why is alcohol a necessary condition of socializing or trust?

Far too testicle for me.

Not Me. I'm back in Germany with my Thai wife where I can get as much beer as I want delivered to my home costing 10 THB for 500ml (a pint). 

 

Next will come the food shortages then the healthcare collapse. If you are still there make sure you are well prepared for the next phases. If you do drink, stock up before the booze is gone.

At least you and especially her will have no desire to go out. 5 degree Celsius? Or what is it today?

As usual taken out of context, I like a beer some have a reason not to.

VERY IMPORTANT NOTE

 

If you have a TENS machine and are bored. Before making any suggestions to your better half try putting a new 9V battery on your tongue.

 

Still want to try? Start on low :whistling:

I drink very little so I do not care about that. But I do care about a big brother with extremely limited talent, competency, vision or intelligence telling me what, or what not to do. And people are stuck at home with little to do. Why deny them this small pleasure? Is this a false moral crusade? Is the health and well being of the public really what is at stake here? Or are we looking at the beginning of a power play to wrestle absolute control back?

I haven't had a beer since the end of February due to the virus, I stopped going out as it was pretty clear where this was heading.

I’ve started mixing my drinks with gabapentin from the pharmacy, you only need half the amount to get drunk

 

Has helped so far with daytime boredom too

I thought I would be a bit ahead of curve here in the UK when the lockdown was announced and bought 3 cases of discounted Corona 330ml bottles and a liter of port.

 

Consumed the whole lot on the Monday night with the intention of consuming my own urine over the next 4 days, thereby keeping my self semi sozzled on a permanent basis.

 

Lined up 4 or 5 pints of pish in the fridge on the Monday night.

 

Tuesday I felt a little poorly, perhaps a mild dose of the virus I thought. Consumed 4 pints of pish on the Tuesday, with a little twist of lemon to take off the edge and felt merry enough. Replenished a few pints in the fridge.

 

Wednesday I was still feeling a little peculiar but managed to guzzle down 1 pint of Mondays and 2 of Tuesdays. NB I doubled the lemon to 2 twists and replenished 2 pints in the fridge.

 

Come Thursday  I was feeling a little more chipper and skulled the last 3 pints in spite of an intense gagging reflex, tail end of the virus I thought. 

 

Come Friday the UK Gov. announced that off-licences were allowed to open as essential shops so I abandoned my experiment. I shall probably send my findings to some medical journal when I feel a bit better.

I only drink one beer twice a week, so I can manage for a few months.

No problem. You can always order from the delivery guys. That call stocking up, and do not fall under the same rules as personal use. Even if it is. I order beer by the pallet and all other by the box.
