h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Does anyone fancy giving up RL alcohol for a month, or any length of time that you want, along with other people on H2G2? If so leave me a message on this thread.

Come on, it'll be fun and healthy too! No more s! Yay! And don't forget, everyone can still "drink" online using the emoticons on here! with Irish cream etc.

I'm afraid I'll have to pass, my birthday falls within the next month. I don't think I'd like to have a 'dry' birthday celebration!

Good luck though!

He he he - ah well, maybe afterwards!?! Happy birthday in advance!

Bit concerned by your name...frog murderer? Eeek! I hope it was all an accident, doesn't sound too nice to me!

Thanks for the luck - I will be needing it because I've got uni exams in 4 weeks time, and I will be tempted to find the bottom of the bottle! However, I have given it up for over a month before, including Lent, so I'm sure it'll be fine

It was an accident, I got him with the mower this morning.

No! I'm sorry. I hate the idea of doing that, or treading on a snail in the garden. I'm vegetarian for many different reasons, one is that I can't stand the idea of hurting animals. It makes me cringe

hmm, well, I'm an enthusiastic meat eater, but I don't like to murder defenceles creatures in the garden. I think it was the twitching that did it. I might turn veggie overnight.

Argh - twitching! No! Blugh. Yay, I recommend Quorn (becoming vegy: see, good things can come from bad things) and lots of fruit and vegetables, oh, and Marmite or another source of yeast extract so that you have enough B vits! ...I realise that you were joking but I can but try to convert people to the world of veg!

I've wanted to be a veggie for about 16 years now, for health and other reasons. But I can't give up burgers and ham sandwiches!

Well giving up say, some types of meat is better than not at all! One of my flatmates has just done it for a week (he is an avid meat eater) just so that he could say he could actually do it - and he has quite enjoyed it I think! Yay!

Include me in on giving up alcohol Only Homo sapiens.Have just about become a non user,anyway,after years of over indulgence.

Whilst I will readily admit to being a true omnivore - I like my Sunday roast dinners to much to become a veggie - I must admit that I am partial to good old Marmite.A 250 gram jar normally lasts me about 10 days.
