    Cos of a thread on the DFW main board I have just looked up Payday Loans. Not cos I want one, I just wanted to see what their site was like, as I've never gone near anything like that.

    :hello:

    Back from Easter in Liverpool. No AF days to report (:o) but very moderate drinking. I find it easier when drinking in restaurants and bars with friends. Although that's not strictly true as I used to drink far more than when out with friends, now I'm able to just enjoy a social time with plenty of water too.

    Planning to have my first AF day for April today, but not banking on it yet.

    Hope I haven't missed too much as I doubt I'll manage to catch up on a week's worth of postings.

    Some sad news here. SIL that had the stroke back in January had two more and sadly died on Saturday. It feels a bit unreal at the moment. Poor BIL is devastated but at the same time knows that all quality of life was gone.
