    Stop fretting, both the avvies are great, really Christmassy. I bet Lurks loves them! One day I'll learn how to do one:o

    Good to hear you both sounding upbeat.

    Sunday tomorrow, keep enjoying the weekend.

    Morning all :)

    How are we all today?

    Had a lovely evening in the piggy house. Piglet spent night at the outlaws so we put the tree up (leaving some special decs off for him to put on when he gets home :)) and wrapped presents whilst watching X factor and I'm a celeb. Had a few glasses of wine, but was planned and I didn't go overboard :T

    I think it was Pen who mentioned the other day about police doing morning breathaliser stops in the run up to crimbo. Really makes you wonder how many people (and I do include myself in that) have driven when they shouldn't. Her post made me make a concious decision not to drink of an evening unless I'm not driving the next morning. Also helps in cutting down my drinking days:T

    Morning all!

    When I was younger I had a complete disregard for this after big nights out. Luckily it wore off when I grew up a bit and now I wouldn't consider it.

    I've been using a diary all year to record my drinking days hence my geekiness in my siggy. I like it!

    After 2 glasses of wine last night I'm back to the grogginess, rubbish sleep that happens each time. I had been wavering towards drinking on the work christmas do next week but considering how I felt yesterday after 1 glass and wanted to go to bed

    Will be driving and not wobbling - why can't I remember how good I feel when I don't drink. Really is time to give it up for good and realise I'm not missing anything at all
