Morning all,
Lurky pls put me down for 6 AFDs thanks.

BHB thank you for the 3 definitions...interesting. Haven't seen it analysed in that way before. Guess I are one then..labels notwithstanding!

Belated Hi to Maman & patchoulli & good luck with your intentions.

I suspect that, going by definition no. 1, most 18-25 year olds are too :rolleyes:

Yep.....me too:o so I was an alcoholic......Am I still?
Or just recovering....

Interesting. One can be an ex-smoker, an ex-anythingelseaddictive, but not an ex-drinker, it seems...... wonder why that is

You can do the smileys from the keyboard you know. If you type : wave: or: hello: then the smiley should appear. my examples have a space between the : and the wave so that you could see what I mean obviously you would not have the space. (and if you understand that load of waffle youll understand anything!!!)

By that definiton of an alcoholic everyone I know bar 2 is one - and that includes my very elderly parents who enjoy a bottle of wine between them 3/4 times a week with dinner. Sorry I am not convinced but then Im in denial I suppose:D
