    I have managed 2 days AF so far on the 96 hour challenge- and haven't even missed it, which suggests that it is mostly routine/habit!

    Well done to everyone else :)

    Morning all :)

    GP - keep schtum mate. Deny all knowledge if ti reappears or claim that it must be a Venezuelan Homing Spider.......:cool:


    Golf was great - thoroughly enjoyed it. 26 pts (playing off 28, for those that understand these things) which, considering I haven't played in a year, I am pretty pleased with.

    Only had to put up with 3 hours of cajoling to have a drink :) - then they stopped, so day 2 is done, Marru :j

    And 15 for the month, I think?

    oooh - hang on.... I've just spotted something on another thread :) :A

    NOT for the squeamish

    :DNeigh, neigh, and thrice neigh :D

    Good morning,

    GP - just leave the poor spider alone. I had a chance to hold a tarantula in my hand in Long Leat last year. She was lovely :) I almost considered getting one as a pet but then I wasn't sure I would be able to provide it natural enough habitat so didn't.

    Stars on their way when I am back home.

    Well done you

    Routines and habits can be broken fairly easily. If you cannot break them, then it could be more than routine/habit. Sounds like you are doing great.

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Hi Guys :o

    I Have been absent (again) for months. As with my debt free light bulb, I seem to have had many alcohol related light bulbs that have been flickering. Im hoping that this time the lights on properly in all areas!

    Things have come to a bit of a head here, my drinking isn't as bad as it was, but the debt its caused is crippling us.

    Am re-engaging with the whole debt free cycle, and want to make being alcohol free part of the aswell.

    Am off to read back through, hope noone minds me tagging along,

    Mari
