Thursday: Three units
I’m in my new house! Since we have no food at all except for a bag of frozen peas (left by the previous owner - will be throwing them out), we head out for dinner where I behave myself and only have one large glass of Pinot Grigio. Any more and I’d have fallen asleep at the table.

Friday: Seven units
Took the day off work to finish unpacking so after another day of emptying boxes and assembling furniture I reward myself with a very large pre-dinner gin and tonic. And another one for good luck before cracking open the champagne and toasting our new place.

Saturday: Seven units
Another two massive home made gin and tonics before tea, and a glass of rose wine watching X Factor. Today my booze vice was replaced by a delicious chocolate cake from Tom’s mum. Better for the liver but not the waist line!

Sunday: 10.5 units
It’s a friend’s leaving party tonight before she leaves for Australia. We’re both knackered from another day’s unpacking so we make yet another gin and tonic and share the rest of last night’s bottle of wine to get in the mood. Then it’s to Ithaca in Manchester where I knock back another gin and tonic and three bottles of Peroni.

Monday: No units
Hangover. Bad one. Had a terrible night’s sleep and busy day which I planned to soothe with some wine but instead had a bath and fell asleep at 9pm.

Tuesday: No units
Didn't drink anything apart from tea last night, as I usually stay away from alcohol during the week after someone once told me that if you give your liver a few days off in the week it can regenerate. No idea whether that's true but at least it lowers my units!
