    Well done all those with more AFness. Determined to hit my 8 for Dec so planning to be AF tonight, tomorrow and Thurs, and logged in for some much needed inspiration.

    Pen - thanks for running the weekly challenge again but you've got me down for four nights, and I wont be doing that unfortunately:o It's just the three please - Wed will be a non-AF day, but panned. Trying to keep it realistic.

    Well have a good night everyone - off to brew up...:cool:
    Smoke-free since Jan 2012 :j Now its just the drink, and the weight, and life in general :p

    :naughty: I should think not:eek: What a waste of an AF day that would be.

    Well done everyone else that's managed an AF day today, and that includes me:). Fortunately I find Mondays the easiest day of the week.

    5AF for December please Shaggy and

    1 for this week's challenge Pen.

    Morning all. Hope you are well and AF yesterday if you we're trying to be.

    I was thankfully :cool:, so that's 1 more AF for me please Shaggy (that's 4 of 8 for Dec - going for 5 today!) and 1 AF for the Tinseltastic Challenge please Pen (and thanks for updating me to 3!)

    Right, busy day ahead (was buying Xmas cards at 3am this morning - talk about an early start!)

    Have a good day everyone, and once again, thanks for the extra resolve!:D
