    It was only after I signed off I thought, I've also got 30 bottles of Stella in the downstairs loo (as you do) (well, not actually in the....you know what I mean!) which also don't tempt, although I also love lager & Stella's my fave!

    Hmmm, white wine = danger, danger!

    (I spose, if there was no wine in, suddenly gin & lager would seem more attractive......:o) (not using lager as the mixer you understand)

    Off to eat now ... chilli...:tongue:
    ate (oops should say eta - hungry!) - good on ya ym!

  • Thanks Honeybear and thank you to everyone else for your lovely welcome. I think you're very brave coping with those pesky mice - I have a real phobia about them, I don't know what I'd do. Mind you, I've always had a cat!

    Hello and welcome Hollie and Mookie,

    glad you're not lurking any more mookie - took most of us ages to join in I think.

    No wine here so far but DH not back from work yet so maybe he'll open a bottle and then I'll have to find some will power. My 13 year old told me today that I was too old to get drunk anymore - and I'm only 40!!!
    Trying to keep in budget.
