Jo hunny, try to do the surfing thing, try to ride the wave to get you through...I am going to watch masterchef at 8.30 followed by Hotel Babylon (mmmm Nigel Harman ) and have told myself I will get to then and see how I feel and hopefully by then it will have passed...

How about getting a couple of magazines, getting a nice cuppa and immersing yourself in celebs ore whatever....

Sending loads of hugs and try to think how carp you will feel tomorrow if you succumb...good luck xx

ETA glad the forum was back quickly :j

Thanks all. I rang OH and told him to meet me at tesco cos then there was no way of sneaking off to buy beer. At home now and feel lethargic, wanna go to bed but got 2 dinners to cook first

Oh Jo I missed all that are you OK? You sound like you're gonna not drink (DON'T!) but your heart's not in it like it has been. Think back on how cool & upbeat you've been (or was it all an act???!!!). Any double deckers on board ?(oooh such a bad pun)

WOW I never knew Hotel Babs was on tonight...so bad it's good.

Nigel Harman is the guy from Eastenders (was dirty dens son who got together with his sort of sis sharon - back when I used to watch it!!) I had a great dream about him once

Jo, great idea to take oh with you to Tescos :T

I am off for a bath now to try to keep me away from the Spar!! and then I won't go out cos I will be in my pj's and dh has said he is not drinking tonight so I know he won't go for me.....

Here's one for bhb due to rural theme:

Two cows standing next to each other in a field, Daisy says to Dolly
"I was artificially inseminated this morning."
"I don't believe you," said Dolly.
"It's true, no bull!"

Oh dear :eek:
