    Morning All & thanks again for the warm welcome :T:T

    Day 2 of my `no target` quest....& a brand new day for anyone who`s halo slipped a bit last night.

    Must say I`m glad I chose a Saturday to start this...I would always buy a bottle for Saturday night...nice to get my coffee this morning & not have to take the empty bottle out to the bin :D:D:D.

    Most I have ever done AF is 9 months....I felt so ashamed when I slipped back into the habit....I guess I thought that I was in control...sadly I was wrong which is why it is important for me to stop totally.

    Anyway....have a good day everyone....I`m off to my allotment to do battle with the weeds!!

    Staying AF for 9 months was very admirable Ange :T Not sure I can manage that but something to aim for.

    DH and I are a bit like " Jack & Vera" ..we bicker on a daily basis but only ever have blazing rows when drunk.:o Last night I was watching " Come Dine with me"( I LOVE it). He says " do we have to watch this rubbish" . " yes" I said without looking at him. A drunk me , would have stormed off upstairs in a huff and " divorced "him at least 3 times.:o Stupid or what:confused:

    On a final note. .. Last night DH said to me " If you stop drinking will I still get my leg over ?:rolleyes: I replied " if you carry on looking at me over your glasses like my dad does then ... I wouldn't bank on it";)


    40SM:D

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:40SM.....I think you and DH are me and mine.(that's word perfect)

    Well done to everyone AF last night.There's lots of positivity on here....keep it up.

    YM....you are doing great.....don't you want to give up completely?...You could do a Westend show without beer you know;)

    Forgot to say welcome to the newbies.

    Got to go and hold the ladder now....Catch you later.
    Have a good day

    Love Mollypollyxxxx

    Oops! :o Forget to say hi IM :)

    Good luck with the allotment, Angie!

    YM, it was the urge to pirouette first thing this morning that made me change it but don't think it'll last long! I'm not really a tutu kind of bear ;)

    Mind you, looking for the pic was funny as started finding lots of pics of Desmond Tutu - so not what I was after! :rotfl:
