Hello all, I've decided that I'm going to refrain from consuming alcohol for the whole of January, mainly because I want to give up smoking but I figure a break from the booze can't hurt either! I came across this website in the paper so I figure that I may as well try and raise some money at the same time. So I’m becoming a Dryathlete, All through January I’m not going to touch alcohol. Not a drop. So instead of buying me a drink, I’d like you to donate. Every pound helps Cancer Research UK bring forward the day when all cancers are cured. The Dryathlete’s Oath I promise that I shall take part in Dryathlon™, respecting and abiding by the rules which govern it, committing myself to a month without alcohol, in the true spirit of do-gooding, for the glory of Dryathletes and the honour of Cancer Research UK.
