Hand drawn and carved. My dear mother, of all people, had been asking me to carve Stone Cold Sober for ages and this year, of all years, I gave up the booze from day one. So I settled on Tee total. I thought my delightful audience would be able to guess at Stone Cold Sober but to be on the safe side I added S.C.S. And as an after thought I decided to scrawl at the bottom MY CUP OVERFLOWS as a little joke. It is simply a personal project to commemorate a decision I made for myself and no one else. I know they say a glass of wine with dinner is perfectly healthy but I would have one glass, love the feeling, and find a way to be on my own and drink alcohol til I am contented, probably having another one of the times of my life, while I'm at it! But I have realised that I can have just as crazy ideas and freedom of thought WITHOUT the good stuff, as they say! So there you have it. PS. My Cup Overflows was also a bit of a dig at the Bible for having so many references to alcohol - no thank you very much.
