The The Oh, Welcome back to yet another sparkling addition to the thought police. We were off last week but I'm happy to say

that normal services resumed yes you're looking fine by the way

considering that you have quite a serious chest infection and I'm gonna tell you

why you got that right yeah you. You got a chest infection and

sickness because you've given up alcohol. Do you think that's the course? Well I think

you don't think it's helped you. I know you've told me you're quite often

you give up drinking for a month in February.

Right?

But normally speaking, over the course of time,

you'd probably call yourself more of a drinker than an on drink.

Definitely.

And so your body, your metabolism, is used to that, right? Now I've actually had the night before this,

complete, and the day before this, I didn't drink at all.

I try to do two days a week where I don't drink.

Usually one of those is at the weekend when I drive back up to London and

I try to do another one if I can when I've you know when I've not got anybody to meet or

when I can eat when I can get away with it but most of the time I would say I drink yeah pretty much five days a week

Yeah, well I was drinking I think I mean I go through stages of of drinking seven days a week, you know, and until it sort of becomes a bit

debilitating and all I mean by that is that I know it's having a negative effect on me.

There's no question that if you overdo it.

Yeah, it makes you feel sluggish.

It makes you feel sleepy.
