    Well done MissP, that's brilliant!:T

    Great to hear from you lala, that's fantastic that you're keeping at it. I always worry when people go missing that they've fallen off the wagon.

    Welcome mittens, there are loads of 'excuses' documented on here for going AF. I think it's best to just say bluntly you're having an AF break for the sake of your liver. Failing that, you can always try pregnancy:eek:

    Good to see you DB, this is a great thread for meeting virtual friends old and new.

    I've not been AF tonight (as planned) but hope to be back on the wagon tomorrow.

    :wave: to those I've missed.

    Thank you everyone for the great posts! Really inspired by reading through.

    Miss P - blinking ink, that is a great loss!

    I am on 18 AFD in August and 1 SNC (please can I go for the full monty Bearacus). I will be target free for September.

    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.

    Soo....10th September will be 5 months for me. It feels like a lot longer though!

    Thanks again to you all - congratulations on all of your achievements - even lurking on the board is something to be proud of. I couldn't have done it without you.

    Much love,

    Hi all,

    Its been months since I posted. Please may I join you again?

    Been having a read through the last few days and its great to see so many people doing well.

    Hi to Maman, Miss P and Shaggy and to all the new names I don't know yet.

    I've not been doing well on the AF front. Only had a few days here and there. Time to try again!

    Can you put me down for September TF please Shaggy?
