Just got rid myself, I know of about 20 people with it at the moment when for the past 2 years I only ever knew of 1-2 at anytime.

Fed up of drinking, dry Jan starts tomorrow so just having 1-2 more beers tonight and no doubt will be fast asleep by 10

Get yourself gone!

Went to Dubai (only place open - wouldn't normally go) and Portugal this year. Apart from a mask or two, it was about as normal as could be!

It's got me thinking actually. I've been to Benidorm and Pamplona in the last 5 years, but think I could do with some sort of break.

Working on my laptop whilst on a cruise sounds very tempting.

Just had a couple pints of bitter down the local, and soon I’ll be off to a small get together with friends where I’ll have a few glasses of fizz as the clock strikes midnight.
Happy New Year to all Clarets.

Italian lager is great, but doesn't half give you a hangover. Just ask Mario (TallPaul).
