  • Hi there everyone

    Well it is 6 AF for me, I did not drink from last Monday, but did have a couple of glasses of wine last night

    I am going to go for another 2 AF this week, but know that from Wednesday onwards it will be hopepless until mid next week as have some evenings out etc. and very busy social weekend.

    I am really pleased with my achievement though, I cannot remember ever being AF on a Friday or Saturday Night. I went for a meal on Sat but just had tap water.

    I would just like to say that I like reading everyone's posts and experiences and find these very thought provoking and helpful.

    Thanks everyone.

    Marru, I've spotted you! Have you been for your run?

    Yep - I have, feeling great but waiting for the effects tomorrow. Done my first training session of c25k, 17 more to go until the Sport Relief 3 miles on 21st of March. :eek:

    Only problem is that now I am starving!!!

    HB - take it easy - that sounds like very nasty bear flu you are having. Oh and 18 for me please.

    And since when have you kept a sensible face, stripey one? :p

    Besides, they're all probably far too big for hobbits & i bet they don't do them with stripes! *fervently hoping* ;)

    You may have several good points there Milady!:rotfl:

    Something more eflen and woodland like then it is!

    C25K? That's what I did to train up for Comic relief two years ago!!! I never thought I'd do it, but I did :) Good luck, Marru!!

    Oh HB (and Lurks!) - you don't think its the way forward for my 'welliefest' upcoming event then? Maybe I need to rename it to 'slanket-central'

    A whole congregation of friends and family members in slankets in the forest with us in special wedding slankets getting hitched? donning wellies?

    I was initially thinking a Monsoon frock or something simple but chic in an elfen type manner for the blessed forest event - simple flowers in my hair, wellingtons hidden by the elegant frock.

    But Slankets - seem so much more practical (aside the wellingtons I suppose), and the fact they might not go with simple flowers in the hair - nor be very easy to walk in, or keep a sensible face in.

    What you think?

    What do I think? I think you've lost me completely....... :confused:

    :DNeigh, neigh, and thrice neigh :D
