Is Mrs BHB comforted by that? I would be

Blimey

Caz, I would take comfort from that dream and leave it at that. Those kind of dreams are positive things to hold on to. when my dad died I was really worried the night before the funeral and had trouble sleeping as I was going to do one of the readings. So I was lying in bed fully awake when I felt this amazing "wave" of calm/peace (that's the only way of describing it - it was a physical thing) - and I thought - that's great, that's my dad telling me not to worry about anything. And I went straight to sleep and was absolutely fine doing my reading. He was a drinker which probably contributed to his demise and it has given me a lot to think about in terms of my own drinking, which is why I am now in here with you amazing guys.

It is :eek: but I feel kinda comforted, just in general

ETA: Totally off topic (:rolleyes:) but has anyone had experience of seeing a medium?

My mothers a medium and my 'spritual (god) parent' is a medium.

Not something I'd ever tried myself - would see it as being akin to someone rummaging through your knicker drawer - freaks me out - dunno why. Rather stick needles in my eyes.

Not that I don't think its useful for some folks.:D

Morning all - from a windy Shetland - had to find a PC to charge my phone :rolleyes: so popped into local library learning link up here with free (FREE) internet access - Martin would be proud - passed several 'internet cafes' and sought out a 'free place'

Works done all bar getting back on the plane - feels a bit dodgy 3 hours work for 2 days pay.

However, gust of wind BLEW and I mean BLEW my iphone out my hand and has smashed the bottom of the screen :eek::eek: was gettting it out of pocket to answer it pah pah pah

Pah need to get it fixed.

Just had a drive to bits of the island I hadn't been before and Shetland is HUGE.

YM - another one for me - bells going like crazy with me - glad they aren't clanging for you Jo

Waves to all - away for a catch up
PS Muse tickets came - am SO excited

Hi all,

People are doing so well on here, it is great to see.

Can't say I am at the moment and I don't know why really, I am going for an AF tonight though as I am away with friends for the weekend and I have already planned to have a few drinks with them over the course of the weekend.

I will let you know in the morning how I get on, ( I am embarrassed to admit, finding this very, very hard )

I don't think people who don't have this 'problem' can comprehend just how hard it actually is. We understand though, so stick with us

Just popping in to say well done to so many people who've been alcohol free - it's going really well at the moment isn't it - really inspiring.


I would like ot think that there are ghosts and higher powers and something more than just our earthly existence but unfortuantely I just can't believe it all - too sceptical I'm afraid. Perhaps the genuine is just drowned out by the fakers so I just disbelieve all of it.

Another AF for me last night - That's 6/20 for me please YM

Really proud of myself last night cos the footie was on and I ALWAYS have a drink when the footie's on, but not last night.

Going for a world record tonight - 4 AFs in a row for the first time in years! Should be OK though as I've got a resident's group meeting and it'll be very sober!!?

Well done everyone!

Wow !! thats fantastic...well done. The savings are growing too.

I have added mine `quietly` into my signature....hopefully no-one will notice but it helps me keep focus. I reckon a bottle of cheap 3.99 wine a day is about what I am saving.

So on day 10 of September here....just (very slightly just) beginning to feel a bit less groggy in the morning.

Have a good day everyone.
