I drink beer in moderation every day because I like it and don't drink spirits. I have my hobbies to and do some maintenance on our farmland and the house, so basically it's just a case of keeping yourself busy. Does drinking alcohol every day not mean a problem, would it be possible for you to have two no beer drinking days a week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTOH, I have no intention of giving up golf and sex. IMO golf is better, less expensive and I can play for longer. What is OTOH? Another poster who thinks he is texting on his smartphone.

Having one or two beers or drinks a day does not make one an alcoholic any more than having sex every day makes one a sex addict. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some might call it a problem I can leave it alone if I have to for say taking medication but I enjoy my couple beers everyday. Also once or twice a week ride my motorbike to meet with English speaking friends to intereact and have a beer with.

Clint Eastwood made some good films 15-20 years ago. Can't think of anything for years. 1970 to 2010 was the golden era for tv, music and film. Nothing of note since. All been done.

It’s a matter of initiative. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
