    Hi all- WOW fay, budgie has done us proud, enjoy that stuff, you deserve it, and thanks Budgie- it just goes to show that however bad we think things have become, there are still some stunningly lovely people out there, you make a huge difference you really do.

    BHB- CONGRATS- 60 days, thats amazing. I'll let you into a little secret- I was catching up on this thread with a mate round when I saw the photo of you and Mrs BHB- he said, 'well I'm not surprised he's sorting himself out, christ look what he's got to lose- if I lost a women like that who clearly loved me so much because of alcohol I'd be a lost cause'- so bring on the Mrs BHB fan club I say- only I'm not so sure on the goat thing- goat rhymes with 'don't' and 'won't'- and as far as goats are concerned I don't think I could go there.

    Hugs to fay (poor poor SIL, you must all be devastated, so sorry to hear the news), COME ON JO!!!!, thanks for the jokes everyone, winebox you are a scream.

    Welcome newbies- this thread aims to support and help people, and I think we do, we're all at a different stage with different goals but the warmth and empathy is lifechanging- thanks guys.

    Hi,

    Have been very remiss, a wee bit of catching up to do, so...

    Fay - well done on winning the May challenge, you're an inspiration. So sorry to hear your news today about your SIL.

    Budgie - thanks so much for doing such a fantastic job of the May scoring.

    Welcome to all newbies, it's a great place to share experiences and support.

    Watching BB - must admit I quite like Davina, she's been teetotal for almost 20 years I think. Used to drink/do drugs but has been clean for a long time.

    xx

    Oops, forgot to put my joke in...

    Man walks up to an ice cream van and asks for a 99.
    Ice-cream seller says "Do you want hundreds and thousands?"
    Man says "I'll start with just the one and see how I get on"

    Boom boom!

    What are you bottling Lurky?:cool:

    Fay & Budgie...goodness gracious me! (not exactly the phrase that passed my lips when I saw the photo....) Fay, enjoy!

    Speaking of passing my lips, no alcohol today, so day 4 pls 40sm.

    That equals the number of days I did in the whole of May! woohoo!

    Might have to go to bed in a mo due to boredom with the TV (I CANNOT do Big Brother!) which sounds a bit sad doesn't it? If my old dog wasn't so old I'd go for a quick jaunt down the road but I think I've already made him overdo it today. Methinks a gentle stroll round the estate then off up with a cuppa (the village shop commented that I'm buying a different sort of bottle this week - I have to keep getting extra milk - cheek!)

    Hope you all have a good evening x

    Sadly, our ice cream man was found dead in his van covered in hundreds & thousands. The police think he topped himself.
