ThankyouJo, Winebox and Orchid. Hopefully i am back on track and definately AF today.I am stopping, not cutting down but feel i have "spoiled it" for June so I am opting out of my 30 day committal ( being as i already failed!!! ) and just doing one day at a time. Today I have done AF
Thankyou all for being here, it makes THE difference in my drinking.

Well I forgot to take something out of the freezer for tea and had to resort to poppadoms and mango chutney and no curry for tea. Didn't get dressed to go to the shop or may have been tempted by an aperatif (sp??)
Have been drinking a bottle of lucozade lurking under the stairs for a while as ran out of ginger beer, boo :eek:
Have been doing a wardrobe clear and sort out to keep busy and help me feel better :j I've put it off for months and months and have made a start at last thanks to another thread. Big pile to ebay after the first clearance and a long way to go. How to live a Saturday night on the edge eh? Clear out the old and bring in the new :j
