Danger time approaching - finish at 1 & have to go to village shop on way home....went in this morning but The Slow Lady works on a Fri, any queue of more than one makes me late for work & there were 3 people waiting :eek: so I do have to pop in on my way home....& it's licenced...& I'm feeling weak. Mainly cos it's Friday. Always was my "big night" rather than Sat; 30 yrs of habit die hard.

Need strong vibes to STEP AWAY from the wine shelf.

That made me laugh . We have a slow lady works in our local coop from 6am to 9am . She picks up every item in your basket, stares at it intently , then has to make a comment about each one... " ran out of milk then" " Oh do you like them.. mm I don't " . Thank god she does not work there at "wine o'clock " .. can just imagine " ooh finished that last bottle already ?:rotfl::rotfl:"

I also have got the " Friday feeling " ... got to just get past it.:o

40SM:D

My 5 yr old has just come out with a random question ( as they do ).

" Mum, did you want me to pick you ? " . Thinking that I had missed some game that I was supposed to be involved in ( again)... I said "when darling. " When I was born " I said " oh yes and why did you pick me."

"cos , you look like me and I thought you might be quite good at things like cuddling , which you are quite good at but you are rubbish at playing football":rotfl::rotfl: Glad to be the " chosen " one:rolleyes:

40SM:D

Thanks for the welcome.

YM - sorry, I meant I've already done 3 AF days and want to do 30/30. Does this make sense? Senior moment

Winebox - Hi, I am a bit vertically challenged but not quite that much! I do a lot of running which helps!

Marthasdad - Hi to you, I am looking forward to reporting in too with AF days

Happy friday to everyone

WB, step away from the wine counter please read some Marian Keyes or summat...

Hi to everyone else :wave:

Welcome to MrsJC, out of lurkdom and into the fire :eek: we are all lovely really, a bit nuts at times (them not me ). Good luck for Sept

Gotta be strong tonight myself....just spoke to OH, apparently he came in at 1.30am this morning and is very ill today (:D:D:D;)) a row broke out between some of his work/drinking buddies, blood was shed :eek: luckily he wasn't involved. He said he might go out for a couple after work to help him recover. I told him that his symptoms are alcohol poisoning and he shouldn't shove more in but think it fell on deaf ears :rolleyes: so 'might' be home alone again tonight :eek: (to cut a long story short :rolleyes:).

All done

Ooooh Jaffa cakes! Haven't had one of those for ages.
I can see you're going to lead me astray 40SM. And I've just
been good and had rice cakes for lunch - 29 calories each - that's
'cos they're mostly made of air:rotfl:

Afternoon everyone.

Welcome Mrsjc & well done on 3 days in September so far:T:T......hmmm jaffa cakes....why is it when someone puts that though in your head you just have to go buy some

Winebox hope you `survive` the village shop.

Jo...hmmm `unhungoverness` liking that word.

Marthasdad - were youi getting a bit lonely Hun? mind you an hour of no posts on here is very unusual !

PIR.. good luck for new job on Monday

40SM...kids ehhh :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:my DD is 18 & asks randon questions like that...usually in an attempt to get money out of me or for me to buy her something!

Finally YM - enjoy your day off.

Happy Friday to everyone else...(still getting used to names etc)

AF-ness all going well here..not a drop since 29th Aug :j:j !!
