"This September I’m taking on Dryathlon® and raising money for Cancer Research UK."

What this means is: no glass of wine at the end of a long week/day/hour, no post-work pints, no pre-prandial cocktails when out for dinner, no G&Ts from my mum's special G&T jug. Nope. Which is a shame, because I rather like all of these things.

I promise not to be all sanctimonious about it, but if you'd like to sponsor me, I'd madly appreciate it. Almost as much as my liver will appreciate the month off.

Damn, I hope non-alcoholic lager tastes nice…
