Right after drinking for god knows how many years and every so often enjoying it far too much I have decided to give alcohol a break. I haven't touched a drop since Monday 23rd, the decision behind this is to become a boring miserable old fart, only kidding the real reason is to get healthy, lose some weight and save some cash and not die of a heart attack or stroke in the next few years.0

Morning All :hello:
Managed a Friday AF :T so 9 AFDs for moi.
ShaggyWhat do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.0 -

Morning
I'm actually losing count of AFness ! Think I'm on 17 thanks DB.
However last night the bells started at 4.15 and were relentless, by 7.30 I'd cooked, washed up, tried playing Bejeweled Blitz, walked the dog, and they wouldn't let go. Or maybe I wouldn't let it go ?
Caved in. 2 stellas, I know it's not much.
HB, I am with you this weekend, it is operation get things done weekend.DC.

SSG - you've achieived 20AFD - that's certainly a big achievement -
Any AFD acheived, day with moderate drinking or just the thought of cutting down in general on this thread should be celebrated.
I love you guys!
*non smushy service will be resumed in a moment*:D:D:D:D
Morning DC sorry you had clanging bells last night - well done on only a couple of stella!
xx
Morning chaps -- cold wet and erghy here looked at the calender and remembered not only was it August - it's also an English bank holiday - so the weather is bound to be pants - even in non-bank holiday land north of the border!!!:rotfl::rotfl:
Total debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:
Total debt as of 28/4/19 £7867.38:eek:
