Junior, 22, enjoys a beer or two most nights as I do, Wednesday is his pub night with a mate or three.

Miss, 18, smashes a few ciders or vodka's Thursday or Friday after work depending on her shifts, hit "town" several weeks in a row after turning 18, 5am arrival on Sunday mornings home, Uber Eats about 40 minutes behind.

Mrs Boon, a bottle of rose lasts her the weeknights, a glass while cooking dinner.

We hit the skids as of Sunday week ago, I had been averaging at least a 6 pack per night up until then and whenever I'd get some beers it worked out cheaper to buy the missus 3 bottles of bubbly.

Had two beers last Thursday, a shitload Saturday, none since.

School night are now out for us and I feel far better in the mornings for it, we'll go out for dinner every Thursday night so I'll have one at dinner and maybe one or two when I get home, none Friday nights.

It took until Australia Day to get out of holiday mode, I may even cancel my leave for next festive season.

I drink very rarely. Even at dinners and Super Bowl at the pub, I stuck to Cokes.

I don't drink at home at all.

There's no reason for it, I just don't see the point.

I drink beer because I like it, I like getting home and unwinding under the back verandah and talking crap with the missus after a stressful day, we both enjoy it, we're trying to find other shit to do inside now though as we got too used of it.
