Waz curious about the word and said to self its someone who drinks Tea totally.
LookC on web and its
The teetotalism movement was first started in Preston, England in the early 19th century. The Preston Temperance Society was founded in 1833 by Joseph Livesey, who was to become a leader of the temperance movement


HowEver he also said one could if it were Medicine. As part of my daily routine for keeping pipes clean I drink a quality beverage that harbors Alcohol. However the Medical qualities become the opposite if one has 2 many Ounces - On special occasions I break such medical rules

Mostly just on occasions, like Christmas, my birthday, or a social event. Might otherwise drink a little if I happen to have leftover ciders in the house.

I don't want to make a habit of it.

That is a good point.
I think negative images of wot bad things can happen when one over does it may make a person ask - Am I going to end up as such.
Besides I with terrific GF who I later married - after a party on way home on a mountain road - Came micro inches away from falling off a cliff because of to much drink at party.
(Wood not have fallin cause it was micro inch tween my car bumper and a telephone pole - That one lesson has kept from a few drinks many a time

And loss off a best buddy who died from drinking - I always reflect on that - And others I have known who died from drink

lolbud. I didn't base my drinking habits around you. I just prefer not to risk getting at all dependant on anything.

Since I arrived in Poland it was 3-4 times a week (weekends, Wednesdays to slice up the week and sometimes a random beer on a random day).

But it's not like I get shitfaced, mostly just a beer with friends and gf...

I kill a 5L box of Franzia* over Friday night, Saturday night, and Sunday morning.

Sometimes, instead of the Franzia, It will be a couple of bottles of sherry or a bottle or two of whiskey.

I've been trying to cut back, after I had a nightmare a while back that my liver had gone cirrhotic and was swollen to the size of a football.

*Boxed table wine for our international audience. 12% alcohol by volume.

Much less than I used to. Now it's about a drink a month.

I found that I consistently feel down and crappy the next day. I like the cultural meanings and mechanisms of drink, but my body strongly tells me that it doesn't like any type of alcohol.

This is ultimately a good thing; my mom's side of the family is full of alcoholics.

> It will be a couple of bottles of sherry
Y is it I C people pouring sherry out of fancy crystal bottles in old moves but yet have met anyone who has offered me sherry or even has a bottle of it on shelf.

I do buy sherry to cook and I use it mostly as substitute for the wine Chinese use to cook with. I have compared Spanish sherry's to the Chinese stuff (Chinese make horrid wines) So I stick with Spain for sherry.

AND Memories of GF Sherry who was mighty good eating. She had that extra special something extra to dine on/with/
