    Hello!!

    Uh, oh. I have been on the go for last 13 hours without stopping. This is the first time I am sitting down. I wish, I wish I had something stronger than ginger ale in the house. Did go to the shop before coming home but stayed strong. I can't afford it today in more ways than one. So Fay no 6 for me please. I am starving as haven't had a morsel since 1pm. Going to warm up some stuff and then catching up with you lot while grazing.

    Back soon :hello:

  • I'm not AF tonight. Cooked a nice meal and fancied a glass while I was cooking so though sod it... managed to not drink last night after pretty much decided I was going to, so I'm not going to beat myself up. :)

    Well done to those that are staying AF though. :) I hope to have one tomorrow instead.

    Really gotta start packing, I'm moving house on Saturday and haven't even looked at it all yet!! :eek:

    Thanks YM. Have finished my bowl of culinary excellence: Pasta, baked beans and left over pan fried sardines. But I am still hungry. I got some whoopsied houmous (sp) so will eat some with oat cakes and ginger ale. Nom nom.

    Only two days to fight the bells and then I am driving to see BF. Can't wait! That will guarantee AF Friday and Saturday.

    I've just had a big fat mug of cadburys chunk it hot chocolate. Hmmm not too bad but prefer twinnings. It has warmed me up on this cold and damp night!

    AF again! Another fleeting thought of a glass of wine when I got in from work which is unusual for me. Made tea early and drank the usual orange squash. No more thoughts of drinking now.

    I've been busy organising my Christmas baking and chutney items ready for making in the next 2 weeks (apologies to Lurks for mentioning the C word! I'm not rushing about in Dec no way!)
