    Evening all!

    Note to self : CAN have a good time without a bottle and a bit in me!
    xx

    I can totally relate to this Miss P! Do you think it will make it easier to do next time?

    To me thats the biggest problem with drinking - once I start I just go on and on - I would chew off your arm if it stood between me and the bottle opener....great to see someone else enjoying just a couple...:T

    24 days for me please shaggy!
  • Evening everyone!

    Jungle Jane - You do sound like me. Once I start I don't stop. So to stop after a couple of glasses is a huge effort for me! :rotfl:

    Busy day today. Have done a lot of scouting around on the internet. Nowhere on-line seems to do the sort of History course I would like to do :( Our local college has one starting in 3 days time but its fully booked.:( May have to be patient and wait until the new year.

    Had a good afternoon though - went swimming at Basingstoke and then onto an American Diner for tea. Had a Philly Steak melt (torpedo roll with roasted onions, peppers, steak, monterey jack cheese and sour cream). Oh my god, I was in heaven!!:D Back to diet tomorrow!:rotfl: Piglet had a lovely time and will sleep well tonight!:D

    Hope everyones ok and having good Saturdays

    Morning :hello:

    I wasn't AF last night but I probably only had 2 or maybe 3 units.

    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.
