Story

After a Stag Do in Newcastle left me mentally and physically crippled for nearly a week i have decided to go sober for the rest of the month or at least until Halloween weekend.


I was going to do the full month but Halloween weekend is one of my favourite holidays and you pretty much have to get pissed for it

All donations will be going to the Samaritans of Glasgow who offer 24 hour phone support for people in emotional distress and also those having suicidal thoughts. 

They also do other work in the same area which you can read about on their website here: 

http://www.samaritans.org/branches/samaritans-glasgow

I considered going through he Go Sober 2016 campaign but mental health charities in my opinion are under funded. I'd like to see the donations helping those in the Glasgow area directly.

I'm going to be going sober anyway so might aswell give some money to charity. 

I've started the ball rolling with £20 but anything you can chip in is appreciated. 

Although keep in mind for me to stay in the house for 4 weeks longing for a crisp beautiful pint of Tennents is going be a struggle so i'd like to raise a decent amount.
