    No OH here but it is lovely waking up and not having to check my history of msn chats or emails sent dreading what had seemed like a great idea after a few, oh and I bet my neighbours love that fact that Itunes doesnt get played at ridiculous levels anymore. (Mind you I do have to listen to theirs:D )

    Got a bit of a problem today.:rolleyes: Wasn't even going to think about having a drink tonight. My OH has abstained from alcohol all week too because he wants to lose some of his belly and also save a bit of money and this has helped me too. However, the shopping has been delivered today including a bottle of red and a bottle of white. I can't drink either colour because Im allergic and can only drink organic wine (less sulphites in it). However OH has already said he intends to have a bottle of white and if OH is drinking I know I will start thinking about Malibu/vodka and want to join him.

    I'll see how it goes later.

    Well done everyone else for abstaining and doing so well!:T
  • Lurky, I could picture some little old man saying that...so had to go and google. Young Mr Grace!!!!!
