    Enjoy the wedding, DB :)

    This may seem random but I promise it's not - friends are so very important & with them you can get through anything :)

    Thanks HB. I don't think what you said is random. It is absolutely true. I want to send hugs to you and to anyone else going through a break-up and finding it painful. I have every sympathy. It happened to me a while back when I broke up with someone after 12 years together. I was a complete mess. My best friend got me through it. In the end, she was the only one to stick by me. Others couldn't be bothered with all the misery!

    The wedding was really lovely. A young couple in their twenties. Made me cry of course!

    Speaking of weddings. I know of 3 couples getting married soon having met through match.com. Maybe one day I'll give it a go!

    Jo - I hope your shopping trip went well.

    My mother-in-law is on holiday and asked wether whilst she was away to let myself in her garden and collect all the apples that had blown or dropped off the trees. So I went to her shed to see if she had some bags to put them in and came across her drinks shelf. I picked a bottle of cointreau up took off the lid and had a long hard sniff !! That doesnt count as having a drink does it ?!! 9 AF DAYS SO FAR FOR ME PLEASE !!!!! XXXXXTRASI

    I'm not sure...is that like the old line of "I smoked but didn't inhale" :rotfl:

    No, seriously hon, having a quick sniff of Cointreau does not go against it being an AF day :)
