You're a bit of a fathead but basically a good bloke, and you did contribute a huge amount to this forum when you were in BKK. Especially your sometimes quite bent photoshopped pics.

As you are aware, a longstanding habit like nicotine and / or alcohol needs to be replaced with something, but that's up to you, really. Hiking on the weekend ? You could take the wife or kid. Photography ? There must be lists of hobbies on the net, so just pick one that takes your fancy, but it probably needs to be quite absorbing for you, personally. Mine was Latin dance as I really like most of the music and combining it with dance supercharges the experience.

Oh, and the one big thing that causes relapse with drugs, alcohol or nicotine is being with people you have done it with in the past, and often also just being in the same places where you did it. It was very difficult for me to cut down on having a spliff two or three times a year, to none at all. I would, and then saw old friends and started rationalizing. But now zero....I'm too old for it now (though it seems Norton here isn't ) , and seeing a best mate cark it from lung cancer caused by smoking dope scared the shit outta me..

Ye fucking big sasanach , Latin dancing, spliffs 2 or 3 times a year.

Dilly's finally coming out; I always thought he was a bit of a shifter...

So for the advocates of drinking we've got a bloke approaching 60 with a myriad of health issues, and the inability to travel in a vehicle, be it an airplane, taxi or ride home from work, without skulling back cans. A bloke in his 60s that sits alone drinking spirits for breakfast every morning between bouts of forum flouncing, and a bloke that went through a marriage breakup and drinks spirits every night between factory shifts and forum flouncing.


Not too convincing, to be honest.

No

Bet that the nice ladies could have educated me some though.

Really liked RSL

At that time still a good anecdote or two from PNG to be told

As we all know.

But tell me a feeling anything like that when the 2nd pint hits, it's Friday night and you're out with the lads.

Nothing to compare to it.

Fixed that for you mate

Well you know BLD, Its funny in that EdTard mentions those folks as if being 60 is a bad thing. Most do more than he ever did and thats part time. Envy maybe...who knows but lets break down this mid 40 year olds rather pathetic life, shall we? I mean a bloke mid 40's, been on this site since back in his mid 20's. Life is so unrewarding and boring for him to keep it interesting he has to change nics all the time to feed another Ego and in that time has amassed well over 100K posts combined. Validation and acceptance from TD members means everything for him. This 40 year old Bloke has a lot of repenting to deal with from his questionable life in his 20's early 30's as he posted under those various nics ( I think most of the longer membership audience knows the deal).

Fast forward to now and its the same ol bloke except now he drinks Tea because he has a near death experience from a disease and his meds do not mix with alcohol. fair enough I suppose. But at 40?????. shiiiiiit!! Sad life really. Us older guys have earned our spot where we can relax, enjoy some good bevvies, post on a forum because...well we are older, we have the time. Shouldn't a 40 year old bloke be out socializing with folks and not posting endless pics of some Chinese knock off smart watch, quote himself endlessly or posting screen captures of girls he claims to have known? I think at 40 most of us older guys were living and working all over the world, meeting people, out with friends. This bloke lives an isolated life in a villa. I couldn't imagine living an underachieving unfulfilling life with my hand out waiting for a stipend check each month.

Yeah his life isn't too convincing.

Jesus, that sounds sad.

FFS stumpy , you need to shag some ebony princesses from Craigslist before you start belittling Lulu's achievements

Just my two cents, but good for you, Dill!!

I used to drink quite a bit in my 20's and 30's like a big enough partier! Thoughts of barfing out a BKK taxi window on the way to the airport still ring in my head.

However, I drink maybe once a year now, and I feel sooo much better. You will too!

Here is a timeline of what happens when you quit drinking.

And I have nothing against people who drink, I have a drink on special occasions. I also know my brother is a huge binge drinker and has quit now for a month and says he has never felt better, no hacking coughing, no hangover, more energy, etc...

Your favourite virtue signal.

You were saying the same thing about people who eat meat a few weeks ago.

Are you still a vegetarian after a month?

btw, Dill was joking.
