Yay, Buster!!! Well done
My Mum is an alcoholic and so is my brother.
I know if I want Mum to pick the boys up, I have to call her at lunchtime so she doesnt get stuck into it.
My brother helped me drive up here (16 hours with 2 kids, 2 dogs, a cat and a bird - leaving at 9pm), but he could only drive for a few hours because he *had* to drink.
We fight about it a lot, he works in a job which means he has to be 0.00 alcohol and drugs and is tested regularly. This is for 28 days in a row, he has no issues during this time, but as soon as he is home he is drop down drunk. I dont know why my sister in law puts up with it.
