Dry January: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Dry January" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

101 nifty tips, some more serious than others, for getting you through a January without booze. A book of 101 tips for people engaged in the increasingly popular Dry January movement, in which you give up alcohol for the whole of January. Tips range from the practical (Put a lock on your drinks cabinet and give someone else the key) to the less practical (Deliberately get infected with an illness requiring a month-long course of antibiotics) and from the sensible (Keep a daily total of all the money youre saving) to the silly (Unfriend anyone on Facebook with a birthday in January). A brief introduction looks at why its a good idea to forego booze for a month, and will also address the thorny issue of when Dry January actually starts (can you have a drink after midnight at your New Years Eve party?). The early tips focus on getting started and building up momentum, while the last few will be especially designed to get you over the finishing line with ease. It suggests places (and people!) to avoid during your tipple-free month, and gives healthy, positive habits to take up to distract you from the thought of what youre missing. Practical and inspirational but with a dash of irreverent humour, with this book going dry for a month couldnt be easier!Word count: 4,000

WELCOME TO DRY JANUARY!
A s a writer myself and, like most of my profession, a purely social drinker, I was quite shocked to discover that anyone would ever need tips on getting through a month without alcohol surely its easy! I was discussing it once with a fellow hack and he said, Stephanie, quite frankly, its a piece of cake... as long as I can find enough pieces of cake to eat, I dont have time to drink.But then I was dared to tackle Dry January myself last year and I must admit found it harder than Id anticipated. I wouldnt have completed it at all had it not been for the odd little cheat I allowed myself wine with a meal is obviously food, which doesnt count; a nightcap is more or less medicine if you have my bedtime problems but it was pedantically drawn to my attention that, apparently, this was against the spirit of the whole thing. So, I decided what I needed if I was going to do it properly was a helping hand, a guidebook of useful tips to encourage me when the going got tough and, just occasionally, the well-meaning crack of a whip and smack of firm government to keep me on the straight and narrow.Well, reader, I was astonished to discover that such a book does not exist. There are volumes devoted to helping you give up the demon drink altogether, and Im sure theyre jolly useful for people who want or need to do that. worthy. worthy.

I mean, lectures in quantum physics are probably fascinating to those who want to devote a lifetime to cracking the mysteries of the Universe, but the rest of us who only want to get next months science GCSE out of the way as painlessly as possible would rather just have a few snappy mnemonics to remember Boyles Law and the colours of the rainbow.So, for my own sake, and for anyone else who just wants to dip a toe into the murky waters of abstemiousness, I decided to write a guide to Dry January that was bite-sized, comprehensible, and not entirely serious. After all, its going to be a tough month, so well all need cheering up. One thing youll need to decide is: When does Dry January start? Can I have a drink after Big Ben on New Years Eve? Well, it very much depends how big Ben is and whether you can pinch his drink without him noticing. My stance is that if you have a few drinks in the small hours of New Years Day, then you cant justify waiting up until midnight on 31 January and immediately start gratefully necking down the Pinot Grigio. Consistency is the key.The tips at the beginning of this book will be focused on handy preparations to make for the month ahead, while those later on are aimed at getting you over the tricky finishing line at the end. anything involving having a good time, basically.So throw out your bottle opener, get reading, and Ill see you on 1 February...BUY THIS BOOK BUY A TEAR-OFF DESK CALENDAR AND IMMEDIATELY REMOVE THE - photo 7
