:grouphug: for you legs, what a dreadful year you're having. I think any progress you're making on the AF side is amazing. If just drinking when you're out is a help then go for it. The cost will probably help you to limit what you have anyway.:(

Like MissP says that puts my drinking into perspective. I just like it too much:D

I'm not going to sign up for the SNC this week as I expect tomorrow to be my only AF night, I'll have one with a meal on Tuesday and then Wednesday I'm off on a short holiday. When I get back there won't be much September left!:eek:

Off on your hols again? You little jetsetter!:rotfl:(yes, i'm jealous!:rotfl:)

I was going to read and run as I have no more AFDs to report but I wanted to send some positive thoughts and vibes your way Legsand, that's too much to have to deal with in one year. I hope that the last quarter makes up to you and yours for the rest of it. Well done on the AF days you've been having and big hugs to you from me this morning. :grouphug:

Legs - Just wanted to send some positive vibes to you. What a horrible year. Big (((hugs))), things can only get better.

MissP - Hope your dad is doing ok

14 for me thanks Shaggy. I haven't beaten my target for ages and intend to do so this month.

If Chris Evans shows his face here, I'm off, can't bear the man. 20 pints of lager a day, how did he ever leave the toilet? :eek:
