    It's a giving up and CUTTING DOWN thread :D I think it'd be rude to expect those that can control their drink to stay AF :)

    Yeah, I was more talking about myself being AF actually.:o I don't want to cause a scene or anything! (I'm not that bad honest.:p) No, I think I will try and be AF for the day/ evening. If I do go, I'm getting nervous about it already.:rolleyes:

    Is it lunchtime yet?:drool:

    I know where you're coming from. I get very nervous about meeting "new" people but I can quite honestly say that I'm looking forward to meeting this bunch. You are all the most non-jugmental, friendly people I have ever come across!
