Yeah I agree, he has managed 4 days and then 5 which I was very impressed with, I did the same which I was pleased about as if I've had a stressful day, I reach for the red wine!
I think I'm just going to have to try to be the one that stays dry and hope that he will do the same,QUOTE]

Some positives to build on there. Could always give it a go with the not drinking for a while. In fact we have a 96 hour challenge on the go ATM if you fancy it. Mind you it is 11 hours in for you already only 2 for me

Yeah I agree ....sounds exciting and loads of people want to do it...but best discription is a roller coster... We have had some great time exploring the place but its starting life again, new friends, new jobs, new schools, just finding where the local petrol station is when your about to run out!!! We have found a lot of support in other expats but there have been times when it has been SO stressful,

I felt like that when I moved 7 miles Better not do Oz yet then

lol I never thought of it like that, I didnt really move that far at home...bit of a shock for everyone when I said I was moving here!
hey that true, I only have 85 hours to go!!! How do I put my name down for it, I dont want to drink this week anyway so that will be my motivation.

Thanks for the advise Yellow Monkey...and thanks for not judging me, OH really is a fantastic dad and I think he was horrified that he might have hurt DD. I'd better get my !!! offline, got to be getting to work. night!
