      Considering how angry you manage to get sober, I think it is a good thing! :laugh:

            Does a dry beer (a typical north German kind of beer) counts too? Then I'm doing it since 40 years.

              Sadly not, after three days sober*, you lose your citizenship and have to re-apply by drinking a bottle of Bells and punching a passing Englishman. \* or 'in hell' as the Scots call it.

                  Why yes, yes I am. I've gone through a few bottles of Chardonnay in the last week.

                      I've had some nice Chianti for the past two days. At the moment I live alone and when I open a bottle, that means one glass a day, so I can finish it, before it turns bad. So yeah in five to six days it will be gone. Chianti week if you will. But other than the occasional week of wine, I don't really drink that much. EDIT: On second thought, that last sentence sounds rather bad without context :-D

                      You have small glasses there, we manage 3-4 glasses maximum from one bottle. :-)

                        Well the dose is just right for the moment, perhaps in years to come, I will buy bigger glasses :-D

                          My suggestion, get the bigger glasses now, you can always half fill them, or at least try to. :wine:

                              Only if not combined with (read: due to) fervent beliefs and a full schedule each Sunday.

                                  I've found that the responses to my dry wit often leave me feeling deserted.
