obviously too young to remember....... :rolleyes:
Freud, with his dog Henry.......
Yeah thanks for the "rolleyes" after the "too young" comment; I'm just too much of an intellectual to think of clement rather then sigmund (ARE they related?) - don't know why I say that cos him above is / was far cleverer than me!!
Nicely done, lurky xi used to be a bit obsessive about things but now I just don't have the energy - I kind of miss that slightly manic edge to life but appreciate the calm waters.
Hi gien; I half know what you mean, I don't have the (any) energy but wish I COULD appreaciate calmer days!!fedupandskint wrote: »Thanks for the reminder about the Living Sober book which is in my drawer and I had forgotten about. I think I will get it out for a read.
That's where my copy is too!! (obv, my drawer, not yours) - thanks for the reminder!
Oh Marru your dog looks FAB for 15; what a beauty! She's lovely. My dog's 13; I had Mr S deliver my groceries yesterdays & the chap said "that's a funny looking dog" - what a cheek! Heinz 57 & my best mate!0 -
you girls and your football :rolleyes: I don't know.........
Well it all started back in the day with good ole Trevor Francis, (the first million pound footballer don't ya know)now I love to see a lower team doing well. (C'mon The Vale) Btw that is a joke, we have a guy at work who has a season ticket for Port Vale. (I hear there is not much of a waiting list):) Sorry to any Vale fans. Still Dear Lurky mate its nice to see you about and well done on all of your af days :T Big hugs and take care (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Winebox hunny, re: the above, its more polite than: !!!!!! but it kinda has the same meaningbut we like to be polite here in Stoke on Trent. (Just ask MP)? Glad to see you posting, good luck hunny and take care. (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Well guys the bottle of wine I stuffed in the cupboard on Tuesday night has been shouting to come out. But I have told it to shut up and be quiet, it seems to have listened. Well I have a special Ewok promised if I do 31 and I really, really don't want to miss that, now do I? So to the adorable Ms Honey B that is 21 for me please. (Really 24 but you know what I mean)btw does that mean I can have 2 special Ewoks, because when I reach 28 I will really be on 31 and when I reach 31 I will really be on 34
Betcha glad I posted now :rotfl:(I know sweetheart there is always one). But thankyou for doing such a really fab job of the scoring this month :T Bear hugs and lots of love (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Miss P, its always lovely to hear from you and I know what you mean about emigrating. There is surely more to life than this daily grind? Well I hope so. The sun always makes me feel better, I would love to live by the sea. )Its a little dream I have). Anyway I digress, so hugs to you and our lovely piglet, take care and stay positive. (()) xxxxxxxxxxxx
Fay hugs hunny, I have a tendancy to over indulge in certain things, wine, crisps etc. It is better if I do not have any near me and then I am fine. The bottle of wine as I have said has been calling my name. I have chose to ignore it. Though the problem would not have arisen if it had not been in the house. But well done on not giving in last night, you have won that battle and you are on the way to winning the war. Iyswim? Lots of love (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Fedup and DB hugs and you are both doing well, keep positive and take care. (()) xxxxxxxxxxxx
Welcome to ImnotQS, well done on doing your first post sweetheart, we are a group who are either giving up or cutting down on our alcohol. The idea is to set a target each month and then aim to either meet it ot beat it? So good luck and take care (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxx

More special Ewoks? :eek:
*scurries off*
:eek:
*scurries back*
Ahem...those who get to 28 will get something other than a 4th Ewok for showing how strong they have been. It's a special thing, honest... not at all to do with the fact that I'm running out of Ewoks:rotfl:
And it's a gold star for a target achieved sobudget_babe wrote: »Betcha glad I posted now :rotfl:(I know sweetheart there is always one).

What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.0 -
