My story
Ok it’s official.
My flatmate laid a bet that I couldn’t last a week nevermind a month without a sip of alcohol. He said I was too weak, that I love a pint too much and the fact that I love a pint to much 
So in my stubborn way to prove a point the challenge was made.
I am going to give up Alcohol for a month – for the whole of July. No Kronenberg, no Stella, no Vodka, no Vodka RedBull, no Peroni, no Corona, no Rum & Coke, no Vodka & Orange, no Vodka & Coke, no Beck, no Carling – in fact no alcohol!
To keep me motivated during July, I would love for you to sponsor me to not drink and I have chosen a local Children’s charity from home – Derian House.
John and then I assume those that sponsor will be able to vouch that I have or haven’t touched a drop of the delicious liquid that is Alcohol – to add a consequence to this, if I do cave in to a beautiful cold pint of Kronenberg I will double the total amount raised for the charity.
So please digg deep guys and Derian House and I will be very happy – and help me in this personal achievement! – I will keep updates on my Facebook/blog to my daily torture of not drinking!
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Derian House Childrens Hospice gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
So please sponsor me now!
Cheers
Chris
