    yup, boxing gym upstairs, a lot of gypsy lads would get in there. I went a few times when i was a teenager until this gypsy kid from Shirenewton beat the shit out of me in a 1 minute sparring round....

    Probably doubtful though, hard not to eat when you've had a drink in my experience.

    Shirenewton, where they drive to the pub and have 8 or more pints and drive home. Lovely place.

    Kitty & Mike Flynn retired from the Royal Oak, The Cambrian was named after her for a while but she never ran it. In fact she was only a Flynn for a short time, she ran The Oak as Kitty Burns for the majority of time there only marrying Mike in her latter years as landlady.

    I'm a former regular drinker who has probably drunk less than ten pints since 2013 and have not had one in more than two years. So, there's a part of me who looks down my nose at people in pubs now, but that's not fair because if it wasn't for me going on Warfarin, I would still be drinking now - maybe not as much as I did, but I'd still want my one night out a week.
    I was never a drinker at home, but loved going to pubs and I miss them more than I miss the beer.

    I stopped in 2009, i was never any good at it anyway, i couldn't hold my drink, constantly pissing and a bigger arse than normal. I didn't drink from the age of 21 up until i was 27 as well. Not a health thing, i just don't really like it or the feeling it gives me, i suppose it's down to character really, i'm a bit ADHD and i fight against feeling relaxed as i start getting anxious, but if i'm pissed there's nothing i can do about it Same with weed, couldn't get on that either, i'm to busy and wired. Can't sit on a beach, go to the cinema and struggle like hell at things like weddings, where i've got to sit still for more than half hour-caused absolute murder with my missus for years, we know what it is now

    I can't smoke weed either. I wish I could. It makes me anxious and paranoid. And super high. Like I'm tripping. I'm so jealous of people that smoke it and are able to be calm. My Mrs smokes it every day. Just a small amount. Sometimes I'm almost tempted to give it a try, but I never do.

    I envy people who can relax in a simple way, just watching TV and being around their Family doing nothing. I can't do that, it's been a nightmare for years. If we go on holiday then i'm up at 6.30, go for a run, do some shopping, make some food, go for about 20 walks etc-absolute disaster. My wife has learnt to cope with my behaviour, it used to cause big arguments. The only positive is that shedoesn't have to worry about me doing jobs on the house, i actively seek them out If we go for a meal at 8, i can be home by 9, i start stressing if i've got nothing to do-sleeping can be a problem as well.

    Have you tried medication?

    Lost interest in both pubs & alcohol at some point around 5 years ago, no idea why, possibly one of my numerous pills as I can't stand bitter tastes anymore. Still got two boxes of lager bought for Xmas 2018. As others have said above, the noise doesn't help either. I've turned into an old fart but give me a decent restaurant and good food everytime!

    Re: Do you like going to the pub ?

    I can't stand the taste of lager , beer , wine , vodka , gin , basically any alcohol , makes me want to vomit

    When those cherry and blackcurrant ciders were brought out about 15 years ago I developed a taste for a while but it didn't last long
