Dry or damp January?
Trigger warning for those still haunted by the term 'wet pubs' - 'damp' January may evoke similar sensations.For many of us, the festive season and January follow a similar structure year after year. You're inundated with nights out, dinners-and-drinks and work parties for the month of December, which inevitably take their toll on your mind, body and wallet. January rolls around and you swear everything off - with booze nearly always at the top of the list.
This is why you may have heard of some people taking a different approach this year, and only slightly dampening their January rather than drying it out altogether.The definition of Damp January is kind of in the name - a lesser version of Dry January where you don't give up alcohol altogether. There are no fixed rules - maybe you decide you'll still have a drink if there's a special occasion or get-together scheduled, or on the weekends.
