    So anyway, to the challenge... I am going to be AF all weekend, Friday, Saturday and Sunday and it will be known as
    'Something for the Weak-willed Challenge'

    (I know I am talking B*llocks but gotta find something to amuse myself :rotfl:)

    So does anyone wanna join me, I really could do with some support as this is going to be a killer for me especially as X Factor is on atm!!:o

    *waves a feeble paw* Count me in :)

    Have stayed home...feel rotten & my voice has gone all weird due to cough, I sort of do a growl crossed with a squeak :o

    So sorry to hear that. No words really.

    I have a temperature! I mean, obviously everyone has one, but I'm properly ill! Is it weird that I'm strangely impressed with this? :o

    "NEVER DOUBT YOUR OWN QUALITY"
  • Morning peeps,

    long time no see etc..hope everyone's doing well.

    I'm doing great these days, loving my new flat, really enjoying my part time cooking job, having a blast with the rowing and my finances are doing ok with my DMP in full flow for 3 months now.

    Drinking far less now that I'm feeling more comfortable with my lot in life, so much so that I've actually begun to appreciate booze as a treat rather than a necessity as it used to be.
    jusqu'ici tout va bien
  • Hi everyone

  • 12 AFDs for me, please Shaggy.


    Pen - I managed Mon, Tues, Weds, would have managed Thurs, but DH suggested we have a few glasses of wine while planning skiing trip for next Feb half term :oHowever, I didn't go overboard, so I'm OK with that.

    Hope everybody having a good Friday - hope you feel better HB. My DD2 is off school this week with foul sore throat and headache - I'm just glad that I'm not starting my new job until Monday, so i'm able to be here with her.

    Been cleaning carpets today - you woudn't believe how much muck has come off them - very satisfying!

    Bi for now

    xx
