    If there's one thing that's going to tempt me off the wagon, then you've just hit on it !!!!

    I could knock back Midori and Lemonade like it was squash - and did on one office 'straight from work' Christmas do. The others had never seen me 'under the influence' before, and one (slightly older) lass wouldn't let her hubby take her home until she'd seen me get into a taxi and give the driver the correct address as a destination :o

    Didn't actually take many to make me start getting squiffy either, as I rarely had more than a couple of drinks a month.....

    Don't worry Cheryl if you get to that point Hubert has some spare nappies!!!
    Oooh looks good BDINI, is it meant to bubble like that!!:eek::rotfl:

    ....I've had the same problem for the last few days, but got my first reminder in ages this morning....
    Strangely Chris, I had my reminder today too..perhaps it's the power of Halloween *looks furtively around* but it's good to know I wasn't alone IYKWIM.
    ....failed....
    :angry:Spread the word! We DO NOT do f@il on here :mad: Taking into account you're still in training, I'll let you off with a caution this time, but don't do it again please!Have a look at Thrifty's post & see if you can spot the difference ;)
    ....5 out of ten for me, on the last day. However half way to my target is better than nothing atall. Hoping for more next month....

    I had my headless coachman's costume all ready for tonight, then suddenly realised I would have no body to come with me laughing-smiley-016.gif
    So I've borrowed me muvva's spare coven uniform & double decker broom if anyone wants a lift. Are we telling ghost stories & pinning tail on the ghoul? Must keep the lubricant handy for oiling Frankie's bolt if he's doing the apple bobbing..

    Got No 20 yesterday & 21 today.

    It's just a jump to the left.....and a step to the righ-high-high-high-high-hight! Ouch! Why did I decide to wear 8 inch black stilettos? And what's that ripping noise? Oh no! My dress!
    Darlings, it's too horrendous for words.....I must find me a nice coffin for a little lie down.....

    I doing it :D
    And I've quite worn myself out doing it :(

    Off to the land of nod now - got my normal 5:30am alarm call tomorrow (and still need to reset one of my clocks for the second back-up alarm!)

    Don't have my usual 5:30am call on Tuesday though :)
    Got it on Saturday instead :o

    One of the ladies (who works Saturday and is normally off on a Tuesday) needed a shift swap as she has a hospital appt on Saturday morning, and "muggins" was the only possible victim to do it for her. Don't mind really, as the more I help out others the more chance there is someone will return a favour if ever I need a swap myself ;)
