    Morning all!

    Hope we are all ok?

    Just wanted to pop on and say I'm leaving the thread. Don't worry, nothings wrong, in fact things are going quite well here. Its a combination of things really. I'm doing quite well on the AF front but am finding myself "thinking" about it too much, IYKWIM.

    Piglet starts school in September so I will be at work during the day, and don't want to be sat on the pooter all night, so thought I ought to start weaning myself off :D (seeing as I seem to be sat on here all day!!!:eek:)

    Will still pop onto facebook and anyone is very welcome to add me as a friend if they want to :). Or you can PM me and I'll send you my e-mail address.

    Made some very good friends on here (you know who you are ;) ) and am very grateful for that. Just feel I need to concentrate on other things.

    Good luck to everyone:T

  • Sorry to see you go MissP The thread can have that effect, I've noticed it myself. I do find though that I get more from it than I loose at present if you get my drift. Good luck for the future and stay strong.

    All I ask is that you don't mention the thread or alcohol and I shall likewise not mention it on yours :D

    I'm just having a break from all things MSE, seem to be spending too much time logging on here when I should be using my time more productively.

    Off on my jollies on Saturday so will pop back when I get back and see how you're all doing :)

    Good luck everyone, chow now :wave:

    I will be back after the hols RN, you can hold the fort on the tittle tattle for me ;)

    I feel that today is a new start for me, for some reason *confused* and feel that I need to busy myself in other things rather than MSE/this thread.

    Like Miss P, I have made some very special friends on this thread so can't leave forever :eek:

    ETA: thanks for the good holiday wishes RN xx

    That's an 'au revoir' wave to Miss P and jo. I don't do Facebook so won't catch up with you there. This is a super thread but I do understand what you mean about addiction to computer, it can get in the way of RL. Anyway, thanks for all your chat and support, you're both lovely people that I'd choose to know in RL.:cry:

    Personally, I think it helps me to keep coming back to make sure I don't slip. The thread has helped me to move from a bottle+ a night to 3/4 days AF each week and moderation on the days I choose to drink. Result!!
