[Closed] How hard is it to stay out of the pub...?

5 past 5 and already thinking of beer!

Me too im off to the pub, that first ones gonna be great!!! 😈

The pubs by me are all full of retards/chavs/low-life, . . .

I have at home a beautiful woman who I love, . . . . so pretty easy decision for me.

Drive...problem solved.

You must live by me then!

Drive + 1

An all day ride sounds good, you don't want to be stuggling round tomorrow, and the temptation is far too great.. 🙂

There is nothing like good company and a pint. Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think 😉 !

for me it's not so much stay out of the pub, but can I go to the pub, have only 2-3 pints and not buy and smoke a packet of malboro lights.

Bollocks to it, I'm going to the newsagent in 30mins to stock up!

Kev

We as in she has decided we need to cut back on our intake and I've just had my first beer in a week (under controlled conditions of course) and I swear it was like nectar! So roll on the next few or so 🙂

God the very LAST thing I'd do on a nice sunny day is head to the pub, what a weird concept.

Taxi back...problem solved. 🙁

In the last couple of years i have come round to that way of thinking. Its fun and all, but i would rather be out biking/running. Or at the very least be able to do that the next day. We get so few decent days weatherwise in the UK it seems a shame being in a pub when i can do that over winter...which i usually do

Ok lets think about this........... Get on bike - ride to pub - av a couple - ride home.

All bases covered! (oh and and low alcohol only as we do not condone drink biking) 😈

Just get pished at home.
Spend the money you've saved on bike parts... 8)

Nothing better than sitting outside a pub on a sunny evening enjoying watching [s]girls in skimpy summer clothing[/s] the world go by.

well said billy bob. I would rather do that than go running.. Christ.

Ive just been running 😳

I've just been riding and done a bit of fettling. I'm just about to pop next door to the pub (with wife) for one or two. All bases covered 😀

Ive just been running

Yeah, but it was around the field where the local college's Ladies' netball team were practising, wasn't it? 😉

(Good save, eh?)

what coffeeking said. what a waste of decent weather

besides, I prefer not to drink while it's still daylight.

two months since I've had a drink and I don't think I'll ever drink again 🙂

Indeed. We brew our own. The first 40 pints cost £1.50 if you account for the brewing kit, then it's between £8-£18 per 40 pints for refills after that. And it's quite easily as good as any pub, and better than most.....!

I like ending a nice bike ride at a nice pub. My fave local has good beer, and loads of really cute Aussie/Kiwi female staff. One was right giving me the eye, last time I was in there.

No, it's true; you ask my mate Mike, he'll back me up.

Still got it; it never left me!

You'll have to give me some tips. I used to brew my own and while it was certainly alcoholic it didn't taste very nice at all. I quite fancy trying it again.

Get a decent kit, the kind that you don't have to add sugar to (something like Woodfordes Werry)

Clean everything really well then sanitise with a no rinse sanitiser

Make kit using Asda smartprice bottled water

Control the fermentaion temperature as best as you can, especially for the first couple of days, try to keep it around 17-18 deg C and avoid big changes.
