    I don't bother with any of that. Just follow my usual regime
    of having two or three alcohol-free days a week.

    I am unfortunately obliged to avoid drinking alcohol as it clashes with my medications and makes me feel terrible. Disappointing to somebody who really enjoyed a drop!

    I now aim for 5-6 alcohol days free per week, but then again, I do tend to drink all my units in one go, but who made up this 14 unit per week measure anyway? It's naffin!
