    Thanks Bismarck....you have been my inspiration and have been behind me all the way.
    I am still wearing the bracelet to remind me;)

    you're welcome.

    I don't know what else to say! I have my life to remind me of the good future and the past that I've behind...some of it is thankfully distant memory.

    take care.

    Evening all

    Thank you all so much for the laughs re the awful songs to play to the neighbours! OH reckons Barbie Girl is a winner (scary thing is that it IS in his cd collection somewhere!:eek:)
    Noise finished about 10.30. Luckily didn't wake Piglet up or I would have been round there like a Mummy Lion!!

    Budgie - hope you are feeling better. We all miss you!!:cry:
    HS - Sorry but I've lost count. Think I'm up to 22 but not sure:o
    Fluffybishop - know where you're coming from on neighbours. The christmas I had Piglet (he was born 21st Dec) some other neighbours of ours had all night parcels all over the holidays. We had to involve the council in the end.

    Avoiding the alcohol tonight as have to get up and go and be Mrs Mop tomorrow. ((hugs)) to all who need them!!

    Hi all- hope you are OK. Second Bis on well done Molly, its a massive achievement.

    Had to have a giggle today, two friends (separately!) whinged that they have been trying to get hold of Kudzo in H&B but there seems to have been a massive rush on the stuff- did wander whether Fluffybishop has anything to do with this and the lurkers and participants on here might be something to do with it??!!!!

    Keep it up everyone- for those of you who never thought you could be AF/cut down stranger things can happen-Jensen Button won again today, who'd have thought that a year ago??!!

    I was thinking about the crazy frog song...or shaddap your face (remember that one?) or Time by Pink Floyd - the clocks esp....

    Barbie song was a good shout though!

    Gah!! Forgot crazy frog! That one is REALLY annoying. How about half hour crazy frog, half hour Barbie Girl?!

    Anyway, did slightly get my own back. They sleep at the back of the house so I decided to sort my recycling out at 7am this morning...lots of bottles and tins dropped from a great height into the box!

    Eselt - forgot to say, am really pleased Jenson won again today. About time he had his day. And our house are big Ross Brawn fans....my Dad once met him and Rubens on a plane to America - we have his autograph and he also wrote "Ferrari Forever". My OH nearly died when he saw it as he is Michaels greatest fan (or so he likes to think!:rotfl:)

    Good Evening everyone,
    I am pleased to say that since last sunday i have drunk 1 bottle of wine (over the last 3 nights) 2 cans of stella, and half a cider, I'm really pleased as i'd only normally be getting going after this amount. :eek:
    I actually think this means i'm just about in my correct units per week (or over by 1 or 2)
    Thankyou to everyone for support and general chat to keep me out the off licence!;)
    maz
    P.s. I'd vote for star trekking:rotfl:
  • Home again

    Avoided alcohol on the plane - well done me - had a couple drinks on Saturday - but only a couple and lots of food so I am on 19 AFD's when scores are updated!!

    Grr to noisy neighbours and well done those giving up, cutting down and generally managing to avoid the stuff.....(its everywhere)
    Total debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:
    Total debt as of 28/4/19 £7867.38:eek:
    minus 112.06 = £7755.32:money:
    :money:Sleeves up folks.:money:
