So it's that time of year again where I'm going to do the whole drink and meat free thing.

I know lots of people will do dry January but here's where I think mine is better:

1. I'm not just doing alcohol free but also meat free.

2.  I'm not doing just one month but three.  Last year I did two months and it was tough, three is going to be a very big challenge.

3.  All funds go to North London Samaritans, a small charity run completely by volunteers and offering round the clock support.
