Kerry is doing a dryathalon, not drinking for the month of September. Firstly because she is better than me, and secondly because she has been diagnosed with cancer. If you're reading this then you're either me or my immediate family, so you already knew this. I think it's on facebook too. Anyway you can sponsor her here1 if you like.
I am not not drinking for this month. I probably could, and probably should, but feebly I have a couple of nights out planned this month. One is a wedding and one is a 50th birthday. I'm not saying me getting drunk at these events is more important than cancer, but I don't think me staying sober will contribute that much to the cause. We'll see how it goes though. I have sponsored Kerry1, that's a start, and also I have not drunk so far this month.
Also I've not drunk coffee so far this month either. I tried, but someone cleaned the nespresso machine at work and didn't rinse it out, so it tastes of cleaning fluid and now I feel sick. It's done this before. I might try and go without for the rest of the month. Might be good for my health, but also it will save some moneyt; I am just about out of nespresso pods and am trying to spend a bit less at the moment.
I will report back tomorrow, and every day, on how it's going.
