    I can see a pattern now, lots of me posting when I am doing well being alcohol free and periods of disappearance when I am not.

    that reminds me of someone..... can't think who :whistle: :whistle: :whistle: :o


    :wave: Hi caz

    How about starting with a single step. Pledge just one day for February (local currency = 1 FAFF) and just try and achieve that.

    Sorry to hear you're having a tough time.... stick around ;)

    :DNeigh, neigh, and thrice neigh :D

    Hiya Caz :wave:

    Hoover hasn't moved. DS asked me to win a game of solitare on his DS so that he could move on to the next game and it took me around 520954 million games to actually win one....wouldn't mind, I'm a solitare master :cool:

    So just won a game, about 2 hours later *rolleyes* and off to make pie now :D

    :wave: Hi cazz, so glad you found us when you needed to. I think Lurks has a great idea. Just try a day to build your confidence and remind you that you're capable.

    You always have good idea's - I mean you're with us aren't you?

    So whos faffing tonight??


    I am faffing after helping DD do her homework and print it off - have a bath and tidy my bedroom :eek:

    Remember HALT

    Hungry
    Angry
    Lonely
    Tired

    We can't help with the hungry (eat something) or the tired (lie down, snuggle up on sofa, have a bath or just lay like brocolli) but we CAN HELP with the LONELY and the ANGRY bit.......

    If you're either of those tonight chaps - then pop into the FAFF clinic

    Our resident-scoring-lunatic (Never now going to be a real DR) :DDR Fay McFaffy :D will be around to keep you company and suggest many strategies to make the anger disapear.

    Jo (show me a chicken and I can rubberise it) will be offering Pie advice in the deep south of London
    Lurks (domestic god of the kitchen) will be assisting offering online advice for all your cooking emergencies
    Honeybear (if sown back together) can delight us with stories of mice-capades
    BHB and the lovely Mrs BHb - can keep us uptodate on the local issues in self-sufficiency
    40SM can elucidate with tales of what to do during half term whilst still working
    Mollypolly can let us know how frozen the deep north was and that she's got home safe, even though she can't have taken many pictures of mountains due to the frequency of trees getting in her way on the A9

    I am sure many other 'faffers/helpers' will be offering their assistance as well this evening

    I can even offer crochet support, garden planning services, cleaning support etc if needed :)

    (please note I am no good at ironing advice as I think this cruel sport should be banned)

    So rest, keep your hunger at bay, don't get angry - get online, banish lonlieness and pop along to the FAFF/CAFF clinic tonight - you know it makes sense!!

    And yes - I'll be here all week!
    Total debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:
    Total debt as of 28/4/19 £7867.38:eek:
    minus 112.06 = £7755.32:money:
    :money:Sleeves up folks.:money:
