Hi
I had an alcohol free Monday and am certainly up for a likewise Tuesday (it's the weekends that cause the problems when my son is lacking his usual routine).
I've noticed that people are noting how much money they've saved when not drinking. I would drink at least 2 largish glasses of wine on a drinking day so I estimate that I probably 'saved' about 3 quid by not drinking yesterday (I tend to buy whatever is 3 for a tenner at Sainsburys so not a wine connoisseur!).

Can't use her proper name on here it just gets bleeped out I tried in my diary

Evil vet female dog usually works (me bitter - of course!)

suweb5 - it was just an idea to see how much we might be able to save if we were strong

each day doesnt sound like much but £3 x 20+ week days each month is a saving of £60 - a month

Let me know if you want added to the October adventure - some folks have added the days they 'hope' not to drink and given me a daily saving

Not compulsary to join!! But you'd be very welcome

Yes please I would like to join. I think 3 weekdays per week should be doable so could you put me down for 12 days @ £3 a day?

Btw I have female dog woman in my own life; she is now much fatter than when my ex partner met her and my children are much more beautiful than her's. Frankly I have had the best of him

Hello People I have officially declared an AF tuesday no drink for me, that Cadburys hot choc chunk looks amazing may have to get some of them on my spend day, although at this rate this thread will become the NCHCC thread as i can see we are all going to get addicted.

AFD number 2 for me......

No way am I going to touch that Cadbury's stuff! It sounds amazing but I'm trying to lose all the weight I put on on holiday and then some! I've got a black tie event coming up in November and my bestest posh frock is at least a size too small.

I'm definitely up for an AF Tuesday, Kudzu already taken, just hope they stay out of the bar at Holby. If I drink tonight it'll be from boredom. It's been such a miserable day and I feel I need a reward for getting through. I won't, I won't....
