So I had a couple of beers.<\/p>\n<p>And you know what?  I genuinely didn&#8217;t think too much of them.  Maybe it was cos I&#8217;d already had three pints of diet coke, or maybe it&#8217;s cos the beer in the pub was a bit dodgy (although the Cobra in the curry house was bottled and surely fine), but I didn&#8217;t actually enjoy the taste, really.<\/p>\n<p>Still, that&#8217;s that done now.  But I&#8217;ve realised that I need to <i>cut down<\/i> on beer, and that&#8217;s what I&#8217;m going to do.  For example, I&#8217;m being &#8220;desi&#8221; today at Rob&#8217;s birthday party, so won&#8217;t be drinking.

My blood pressure&#8217;s higher than Kilimanjaro at the mo, and it&#8217;s actually making sleep difficult.
