Nope - can't even remember the last time I had a beer.
I drank a glass of white wine last week though, if that helps?
(I used to drink a lot - more than a wine box a night for about twenty years - but I got bored with it and stopped about six years ago. Surprisingly few adverse effects! )

You stopped drinking because you wanted to or you needed to ?

Wanted to. I just got fed up with not remembering the ends of films, and getting drunk and so on.
If I had needed to, I suspect it would have been a lot harder to stop than it was...as it was it was a damn sight easier than when I gave up smoking!

I don't know about Griff, but I decided I wasn't enjoying it anymore and just stopped.
No drama - except a filthy temper for a couple of weeks - and now I haven't smoked for over four [or maybe it's five] years.

Patches. Each one lasted a week.
Horrible. I didn't sleep properly - I had incredibly lucid dreams the whole time - and my sense of smell came back with a bang. My sense of taste changed dramatically (I still can't eat as hot chillies as I enjoyed when I smoked). I hung onto the final patch for four weeks, like a comfort blanket, even though it had run out of nicotine ages ago. Not an experience I would want to go through again. I think what kept me going was that I was not enjoying smoking any more: I smoked because I had to. International flights were a living hell! Motivation is important IMHO: if you don't actually want to give up, you won't. If you "think you should" it's probably a lot, lot harder than if you "want to stop". I also didn't destroy my tobacco on Day One, because I didn't want to not smoke because I didn't have any - I wanted to not smoke because I didn't want a cigarette (if that makes any sense). When I took off the final patch, I chucked the tobacco because I didn't need it any more.
One of the motivators was to put the price of the cigarettes I would have smoked in a jar every day. At the end of the first month, take it all, and go spend it on a present for yourself, then again after six months - it's surprising how much free cash you get!
But completely worth it. I breathe better, I don't get the colds and such I used to, I don't stink all the time, I don't have burns in my shirts, I don't have yellow fingers, I'm much better off financially looking at the price of a pack now, I don't wake up and have to search for the cigarette I dreamt I was smoking...

Nah - I stocked up earlier on in the year!

When this Merkin habit of sending small children out into the dark to knock on strangers doors and say "Trick or Treat" (even though they do not know what it means nor why they say it) started here in the UK, (In about 1983, I blame ET, although why the director, who is Jewish, would highlight a Christian festival based on a Pagan belief system is beyond me).
So when they come and knock on the door and say "Trick or Treat?" you reply "Trick please" and then stand there, steely-eyed, chiselled-chinned and with a bohemian, almost Rasputin-like detachment as they squirm and attempt to innovate a salient response.

I'm glad you included "with the brain of", otherwise you'd be on the Stuart Hall Special.
