  • so sorry for rambeling on
  • i cant find them little smiley things to put on my post im still learning sos!
  • Just a quick one to say I have CAFFed and not FAFFed this evening. Had a pint of lager out with a meal, (sister unexpectedly home from London) but I only drank 3/4 of it as I was driving.
    Still a bit annoyed I wasn't AF again.

    Well done everyone else. :T
  • I have this battle in my head too - it has taken me ages to realise it's all in my mind. Afterall I never say anything negative to people who don't drink so why would they to me!

    I know exactly what you mean. I keep thinking I am letting people down by not drinking.....what nonsense
    Hmm, that was an unpleasant reminder of the damage alcohol can cause. I put in the most I would drink on a night out, knowing it was more than usual however thinking all the same it wasn't that bad - who was I kidding with those results!

    As for in 15yrs time - don't ask!

    Continued heavy alcohol intake is gonna takes it toll on most people.

    Well done everyone else who's AF tonight

    and jo I hope that application is all set to hand in tomorrow and not with curry stains all over it!!:naughty:

    I almost gave in tonight at 10.30:eek: I had a great reason, went to footie, my team won and we're going to Wembley in March:T:T:T Not a hugely prestigious competition but it'll be our first visit to the new stadium. Even before the game ended I was thinking I should celebrate with a glass of wine and was still arguing with myself when I got home. OH offered and I heard myself say 'no thanks'. Made do with diet coke. So I FAFFing well managed it!!

    6AF please fay.

    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.
