I was only thinking earlier what a dark horse you are,

I probably am a bit of a dark horse as I don't won't to post anything that could lead me to be identified in RL. However, I promise (to myself) that I'll always be honest about my drinking on this thread:)

Morning all,

There seem to be a few unhappy bunnies around. If that is you then comisserations.

Well done to those of you meeting your objectives.

Sim There have been some fantastic posts for you I really hope you will take strength from them. If you get the 'urge' again try posting before you take that first drink. Support before might just help you cope.

Shaggy Brill achievment, I have followed your lead and written a spreadsheet to monitor myself. Please put me down for 6 please.

Pen With tail between legs can I have another chance please.

Hi everyone!

Sorry not been on for a few days. I am house-sitting for my friend and this weekend has been so lush......... like being on holiday myself. He has a mega posh 4 bed detached house with a hot tub in the garden........ooooh, it's been so nice relaxing and using the hot tub. How the other half live, eh? LOL

2 more AFDs for me please.

Did have a drink over the weekend, but nothing major. I am here in the lovely house, for another week on my own, so I think i might get a bit lonely occasionally, but I am still having to work 4 evenings this week, so it won't be too bad. And I have uni too of course.

I am still ill.............cold has developed into a shocking cough. I sound like a donkey! I've hardly slept the last couple of night, I've been coughing so much - I hate that. GRRR! :mad:

Hopefully I will improve soon - I can't remember when I was last ill so often/so long.

I am so sorry to cancel, but I won't be able to come to the curry evening. I am so sorry to Fay and Jo and everyone about that, I was really looking forward to it. The problem has arisen as I was travelling with Miss P and her husband, but they aren't going now. I can't afford the travel to London on my own and the meal, unfortunately. Money is so tight for me right now.

Hugs and love to everyone.

Omg..I behaved so badly on Friday night on another thread....I was drinking and I can't believe i did this - I brought up my money in a completely tacky and annoying way...I think I actually typed the words "I'm a millionaire". What an !!!!. I've never even really, seriously THOUGHT those words, much less said them. Some guy reported me for my views on people who have kids and then complain they can#t afford them, which I don't even know why I brought up - I should have kept my big gob shut.....and he said "this is a family site so you can't say things like four exclamation marks in a row"! !!!!!!? Maybe his kids have exclamation mark decrypting eyes. And he brought up my drinking - likening it to having kids...weirdo. Anyway, that annoyed me so I thought it would be a great idea to mention my money...lol, I hate what drink does to an otherwise caring, good-natured person.

I am so disgusted with myself that I have not had a drink since.

'I and my partner would love to have children and we would make terrific parents, but we choose not to have them because we can't afford it. So many people in our situation just go ahead and have kids because they are utterly selfish...' Qoute by alchera

I smell a fish. I would say Alchera that you have a problem of one sort or another. Maybe it's drinking, maybe it's lying, maybe it's a liking to stir things up. I would say that posting about a lottery win on a site where some people struggle to put food on the table could be considered insensitive. If you have indeed won the lottery may I respectfully suggest some pshycotherapy as you obviously are having trouble coming to terms with it. If you haven't won the lottery I would suggest the same as if this were the case you have issues too.

My instinct was that you were a troll, my instincts lately haven't been too bad.
