Perth man Tom Griener says he finds it difficult to make it through a BBQ or dinner party unless he’s got two or three fascinating stories about how he’s doing Dry January under his belt.
“Whenever I’m in a social situation I feel like I can’t relax unless I’ve cracked open my first day-by-day story about how I’m going without alcohol for a full month. It’s a real problem,” he said.
“I get in large groups and it doesn’t feel right unless I’ve got a smug anecdote on the go about not drinking for four weeks. It’s generally not until I’m four or five stories in that I feel totally relaxed”.
