sidles in quietly - having missed you all.....no big drinking disasters but enough over last few weeks to feel a bit grumpy with myself. Been away with family and it all goes pear shaped in the alcohol department!
Going to try and post/lurk regularly from now on as I know it helps me.
Any big news I have missed?

It's better when I'm not here (ie.using the laptop).

Ah ok, thanks!
Well, last Friday to Sunday, I managed to stay sober between about 9pm Saturday and all day Sunday!
Then, Monday until today, Thursday, I've been sober every day :-)

Hi Honey B, nice to have you back. I too am watching the debate
my Ds is heavily in to politics and we may have a question and answer time later:eek:
The good news is that he is thinking of booking a couple of days off work for the election and coming home to vote.:j He has kept himself on the electoral role here as he says his vote will count more?
So of course this will make Budgie very happyHe very nearly took polotics at uni. I am afraid not so well versed.
Still off to the loo *sorry tmi) and to make a cuppa, catch you later.
Hugs (()) Budgie xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxCherish the ones you love and travel back on the road that brings you home
