    Hello
    I'm back from a totally perfect weekend away, I got to spend time with 2 of my dearest friends, did some lovely things and was totally AF. I realised how much I enjoy waking up in the morning and being ready to go rather than feeling ropey. It was easy because these are the 2 people who know about my difficulties with drink and are totally supportive of me. The first does drink, but ordered a diet coke when we went out for dinner, and the second doesn't drink any more but would have been happy for me to have some wine, but again was very supportive of me, and told me how proud of me she was when I told her the whole story.
    So, that brings me to 26 so far for August :T well done me, even if I do say so myself.
    I'd like to sign up for the whole SNC this week (is that 3 nights? bank holidays do confuse me), and I think I'll set a target of 28 for September, even though at the moment I have no intention of drinking, but just in case I get hi-jacked.
    Hope everyone is well and not too blinking cooooolllld.
    Say what you mean.. mean what you say... without being mean.

    Only 1 for me for the SNC, sorry. Went to a neighbours house and had a glass of wine to be sociable.
    Trying to keep in budget.

    Well done AnnieG, I'm glad you're proud of yourself but we are too:D

    In fact, well done everybody who's managed an AF night tonight (including me;)). Every one counts.:T

    Some very aspirational targets being posted for September. Go for it!!!

    13AF for August please Shaggy
    and 1 for the SNC please Bearacus.
