Default Lunchtime Drinking ?

Normally I never do it, don't have the time, but this week I am off, got up, took the lads to school, went to the builders merchants, replaced cracked drainpipe, excavated flower bed to fit edging strip, trimmed several large and spiky plants, cleaned kitchen, cleaned living room lights, swept patio etc

So, made my lunch, normally I have water but I though f*ck it and had a can of Stella, then another and I feel damn good !

J4CKO, sat at the top of a slippery slope !

Do you lot drink at lunchtime ?

Nope. Well very rarely. Lunchtime drinking is like drinking double. That's why you feel like you've had four cans not two!

depends, but on a day like this if your not working it seems rude not to have a couple, that said i cannot do it at work, if we ever go out for a pint at lunch i just wanna crawl under the desk and go to sleep when we get back to the office however, not so at weekends and days off

I can drink a fair bit, but only on a night. For some reason I just can't do it through the day. If I could I'd have one now, sitting sunning myself in the garden.

Occasionally. But i normally have to write off a load of things i might want to do like drive somewhere, do a work out, etc. If i am going to drink around lunch time i prefare to go out and have a pub lunch and few games of pool... only problem is if you have about 4 pints so you start feeling a bit "waaay..." then just go home might start feeling a bit weird, like not a hangover but a bit dodgy and start getting bored as the alcohol wares off...

for me its a case of couple beers then call it an afternoon, or if you go a bit far (90% of the time) hope some of your mates will come out too... but if they can't make it till 7pm, they might have 6hrs worth of catching up to do!

Im a day time drinker, think that has something to do with the socialist in me. I prefer to sit and chill with a beer and chat to friends. Night drinking is for groups who are basically out to either dance or go on the pull.

If Im not at work Id be having a beer, especially in this summer sun

if we have no valets booked in at work, i will go in for 8am, then the second man comes in at 10.30am, nothing really to do except run the carwash (not even that if its raining) , so i will leave to it, come home, and have been known to be slaughtered by 11am quite a few times

i think its made worse because i buy all my drink in bulk from a local cash and carry, so we always have various crates of wine/beers/ciders kicking about

Made it to the pub by 1 today.

I had to go and eat before playing football at 6, else I'd never have made it back for another few.
