  • Good point fakeplastictwee (you have to explain that user name to me I'm intrigued :D ) I do get through a lot of diet coke when I am conning my mates :rotfl: Its gone now so at least whatever it was disappeared much quicker than my legendary hangovers :o

    Have a great time at the cider camp that sounds like heaven :)

    Fake Plastic Trees is a song by Radiohead... I've had this username for all sorts since I was about 15, fakeplastictree was quite often taken so I changed the 'r' to a 'w' and it's stuck ever since really. Unfortunately people usually think that it says Fake Plastic Wee :rotfl:

    Don't think we're going to cider camp now so if I go out it'll only be to our local... although I have no money so it's up to the BF if we go out.

    hello
    No probs Miss Piggy, I hope you enjoy it!
    I managed to survive last night, and have no plans for tonight or the rest of the weekend so am confident that I can stay on the straight and narrow. Next week I'm going to visit my mum however, and it's my birthday, so we'll see, I'm not overly optimistic!

    I've only managed 1AF day so far and that was last night. I think it must be the weather and the fact that all the kids are off (I'm not unfortunately). It doesn't help when DH has a drink every day, though he seems to be able to stop after one or two, as I then think 'sod it', I'll have one too. Won't be AF tonight, it's been a long week and I want to go out. Normally AF on Saturdays though.

    Yoemma - Enjoy your work experience. I did my nvq2 Beauty Therapy at college (part time while I was working) and have done an acrylic nail course. I just do friends and family, but I love having the skills there.

    I love it! Feeling very nervous though. Hope to go mobile once I get some practice in! I'll need to keep you in mind for your Beauty tips :)

    Hope the little one is doing well and you are getting plenty of rest x

    Stay strong :)

    Bells have been ringing for me since about 2pm, been in the garden in the sun and there's a nice cold cider in the fridge. Trying to hold out though. Been in a bad mood all afternoon so drinking probably won't help.

    Evening all

    Really busy on here the last couple of days! :):T

    Not AF here tonight. Went shopping this afternoon with Mum, then spent few hours with Piglet at thier house. Not long got in but really fancied a glass of wine.:)

    Wierdly....there was a tap at the back door at about 8.30pm and it was a little boy from up the road. He's in Piglets new class and was wondering if he could come out and play!! They are 5!!:eek::eek: I walked him back up the road and saw him to his house. Told him he could come play tomorrow but I would want to speak to his Mummy first. I quite often see him out in the street. Really worrying:( Cannot, for the life of me, imagine letting Piglet go knocking on peoples doors!:eek:
