    what are the tips for 'going out'? In the past I've been able to do it (one lent during uni me and friend didn't drink, and went out a few times), but a week or so ago I went out and wasn't drinking and had to head home after a couple of hours because I was knackered... but I think that was probably the company more than anything!!

    That has happened to me a few times when I have gone out and not drank any alcohol around other people who are drinking. It shows who your friends are I think. Honestly some people I only find bearable if I'm drunk! (I'm sure some people would say the same about me before I sound like a total b**ch!:o:rotfl:)

    I have had 7 AF days in a row now. :T I'm not sure if I'm going to make it AF today though. I am craving a drink today so much. I hope everyone else is doing okay and has an AF Monday if that is what they want to do.:A
