Did you think I meant the 8am rendition? LOL Yes, I know. Perhaps you read my last comment again. Btw., I guess many things happen at 6 pm - and none of them is a reason that I don´t drink before 6 pm. Also it doesn´t mean I start exactly at 6 pm, it depends where I am, if I am thirsty and so on. Often I drink no alcohol during a couple of days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was being used as an contraception by many women many moons ago. “Coca-Cola douches had become a part of contraceptive folklore during the 1950s and 1960s, when other birth-control methods were hard to come by,” And I've seen people who drink that stuff!

Well sounds like the good time for a sunday afternoon drink but I wonder the same thing often, the sound from here doesn't resonate with expats in real, just a few. Many here still believe tourism / real estate is good as well and visa's should not be complained about hehe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matzzon Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 As many as I like. Can go weeks without a drink or beer. other times it can be between 1-10 bottles a day for month. Sometimes it a helluva party and then there´s no limit to the intake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why he's still alive. Even Keith has got huge problems. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/let-it-bleed/ I've had liver problems caused by a Hep. C, you don';t want to experience that, believe me. The liver doesn't have nerves, but when you feel pain it's often too late. Stop drinking yourself stupid!

sipi Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 I love the taste of beer. That bitterness on your palate on a hot day is most refreshing. I've tried to replace it with lemon drink or soda water but it just doesn't cut it. Fortunately I have discovered low alcohol or even no alcohol beer. Some of it tastes terrible but others are quite ok. I now live on heineken 00 other 2 percent beers. I still enjoy a high octane English ale but only a couple on special occasions.

BobbyL Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 I never drink at home unless a few mates pop round and I never drink from Sunday - Thursday because of work. I reckon I go to the pub 2 - 3 times a month, usually on a Friday for some happy hours onwards. That could be 3 pints, or it could be 9 pints. I don't like to limit how much I drink when I go out as I don't mind a few good sessions a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 One small beer a day (usually San Mig Lite) OR One shot glass of Vodka (American, not Putinican) OR (very rarely) One shot glass of 100 percent agave Tequila Yes, I know -- BORING. I guess I miss WINE but it's just too expensive here for anything at all decent. For a lot of things I have a very addictive personality but I think I have some kind of genetic predisposition to NOT become an alcoholic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Dwyer Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 I used to be a big drinker from 16 , down to the local every night playing darts with the mates, then i got married and went out less but still drank to excess , only beer nothing else, then i got a job traveling and became a bigger drinker ( company dollar ).Never drank alone though, always in the company of friends or colleagues. Had some real binges and some incredibly painful hangovers.“ never again !! “ , 2 days later back on it.Back to visit the parents could polish off a couple of bottles of my dads homemade wine easily.But then my tastes changed, couldn’t get through a glass of wine ( any wine ), first sip or two tasted great but then I didn’t like the taste and struggled with it ?Same thing happened with beer, found I didn’t like the taste anymore and started to drink less and less.Probably 3 years since i last drank beer, 2 1/2 pints of cider ( strongbow dark fruit ) at my sons wedding nearly 2 years ago, a glass of Jack soda a month and a half ago on my birthday !!No intervention from me, I just don’t feel the urge or like the taste anymore .
