    We went to Alcudia...me and my two DDs.We had a lovely time and its the first holiday when I didn't suffer from daily hangovers.
    Both my girls do drink occasionaly(sp) and did so on holiday...just a couple.(I wish I could do that...but I can't)So I drank non-alcoholic cocktails and was first up for the sunbeds at 7am every morning.It was great getting up with a clear head and having a peaceful walk to the sunbeds.
    I must admit I was a bit worried before we went but as I said previously....if you want something enough IT IS POSSIBLE.

    Oh and Alcudia is a beautiful place.
    Love Mollypollyxxxx

    Since we're all 'fessing up to ages I'd best say I'm a '76 bear :)

    But I have failed at doing an AF Tuesday...I even walked away from the wine aisle at Tesco...but then I went back...and it tastes lovely... :o
