    I am seriously thinking of stopping DD to see her dad. I am absolutely furious. At one point I was very close hitting him. On a way home sooo wanted to have a drink but I am not. 4 please Shaggy.

  • Evening all

    ((hugs)) Marru. It must be very difficult. Hope you and ex can work things out. What did he do to cause you to be so angry? (sorry, that sounds really nosey!!)

    Had a nice day today. OH took me and Piglet to Perrygrove Miniature Railway in the Forest of Dean. It was great. Had a nice picnic, couple rides on train and playing in adventure areas etc. Also went to craft village and got a couple of christmas pressies (sorry Lurks!). All in all, a good day.:)

    And tonight I'm afraid I'm not AF. Failed the full monty.:( But I'm only having a few glasses of wine. Not going mad.

    Hope everyone else has had good Saturdays??

  • Hi everyone - hope you're all having a lovely Saturday evening. Have tried to catch up with what's been happening with everyone - what's going on with all this pork? I bought some today to cook tomorrow for Sunday dinner - you've all inspired me. I might google some recipes - or try and find ones you've all been talking about. Marru - sorry to hear you're having such a bad time with your ex. Shaggy - I'm trying to shift some weight too, just joined a new gym so I'm really motivated at the moment. Shall we start an AF Diet Club? Drinking water only tonight (or might treat myself to a diet coke later) so I'm on 3 AF days now - woohoo! Baby steps. Bye for now everyone.

    Am lurking...

    Not sure how it's possible to have worked nearly 50 hours in a 4 day week but hey ho. Unsurprisingly, i'm a bit tired...

    Not AF. And I don't want to be. I need to get this out of my system cos I know it's unhealthy but i can't be bothered or see the point of not drinking.

    I know that's not the right attitude. I just can't seem to change my mindset atm

    Sorry for the downer, folks :(

    I don't know how many times I've linked THIS page up to this thread, I think I need to speak to Jamie O about royalities :rotfl:

    Mookie, you have no idea how delicious this is, I think we've spoken about this pork every weekend for the last 3 months :rotfl:

    I have bought a HUGE shoulder of pork this evening ready for oven when I get up in the morning ;)
