    Morning all.

    17 AFDs now - I got home at about 9pm from work, had something to eat, and went to bed. Easy!
    Can we just take it as read I didn't mean to offend you?

  • Shaggy can you put me down for 16 for January so far, may just miss the target.

    I'll go for 20 again for February. Even with less days it should be achievable as I won't be having such a poor start.

    Put me down for the Mon - Thurs please Pen plus bonus day Friday. In fact stick me down for every week from now on.

    Thanks both.

  • Hello all,

    2 more AFD's please Shaggy.

    So I won't be anywhere near my target for this month, but at least I've done better than last month.

    And for my February target, I'd like to aim for 22 days please.

    Hope you are all doing well and feeling fine.

    Hugs

    Excuse me while I just talk to myself for a moment (you don't have to listen so I'll keep it quiet)....

    I know I should only have a maximum of 12 drinking days in February because of SW. That means 28-12=16. I will have done 16 for January come Monday so I can acheive it. But what if I have any s*d it days or go out and have a single glass? I would feel so angry that I'd missed my target. If I stick to my usual target of 10 then I can work to acheiving my target first, get that in the bag then feel good if/when I acheive bonus days. I know it's boring but it works for me. Decision made.

    10AF for February please, Shaggy.
