norrona Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Why this obsession with alcohol? Does life really have to revolve around it because if it does I must be dead already. I'm not teetotal by any means but I haven't had an alcoholic drink in weeks and if I have the next one tomorrow or next year is of no importance. Because there isn't anything else to do here is there. *burp* So why live here? Been here so long now that I am pretty much removed from real sociey. Can't go back now. perhaps it might do you some good....I mean being a house husband and doing the school run Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz do you walk round the house with a feather duster clenched in your cheeks whislt doing the house work? you need some purpose in your life fella....why don't you invest in a bar or go-go or something?

Nana Cowboy Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I used to drink beers and/or alcohol at any waking hour of the day then quit 14 months ago and haven't had a drop since and I don't miss it a bit. That's a lot of money saved I figure 150,000 baht and counting so far. So near constant beer from age 15 to 50. My liver thanks me everyday and my wife is happy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Me around 11am, which gives me around 3 hours before I pick the kids up. Cheers. You will pick the kids up smelling of drink, believe me they will notice and will be taking it all in. You must be so proud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rene123 Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 It depends on what time your day starts. For some it is midnight. Airline schedules certainly at midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardenedSoul Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I go weeks and months without drinking booze but, on rare occasions, if I feel like drinking alcohol at 9am after rolling in from a late, late night club with a girl or two, then that's what I'll do.

thehelmsman Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 My lady's uncle is full time cop and part time songtaw driver for school kids. Stopped to talk one day as he was waiting to make a run and he's drinking a can of beer. Gotta love it........................ not if you have ever seen carnage from drunk driving... I believe he was being facetious. You were, weren't you, Helmsman? I see cops in uniform, ON duty, drinking and riding motorbikes in my town, quite often. Great example. Other adults, too. As for me, if I'm out of beer, I go without, until I get to Makro, buy it, carry it in a box. I won't allow the younger kids in my school see me with it. The off - duty cop was drinking the beer with a straw if that makes it more proper. I don't condone drinking and driving but life in Issan ia a bit different.

David48 Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I think I have a problem that I don't drink more. My one Lite beer a day (or Vodka shot) makes me feel like a nun... I might be wrong ... but I can't imagine you JT ever feeling like a nun. Do they make a Priest drink? Ah ... it's in how you interpret the English ...

meatballs Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I drink on average once a week. "First drink of the day"!?!?! If you're drinking every single day don't you feel you have a problem? I personally can't drink more than once a week or I start to feel unhealthy. I can't imagine how run down your body must be adding alcohol to it every single day and not allowing it any time to recover Depends how much they drink. 1-2 drinks a day is no big deal. For people like me who like to binge drink on Changs it can be a problem. I like to keep my drinking down to no more than once a week. I stay productive and feel healthy.

ALFREDO Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 (edited) To the OP's asked question, have to say -never-! I am in Isaan, most of the time, I never drink alcohol. Coke, Soda, also, mixed with apple juice, tastes much better for me.. Sometimes, when out in the "Thai Disney World for men", in a Brewery-Khon Kaen or socializing with other Falangs at seldom meetings, a few alcoholic beverages can be ordered, getting drunk is-was, a very rare occasion in my life!

Popular Post kennedy Posted December 19, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted December 19, 2012 I've been drinking for 46yrs. and smoking for longer than that. Had a physical exam last month and everything was ok. Of course, I told the doctor I didn't drink or smoke otherwise it would have surely been another story. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
