    I'll join you on that challenge Chloris!:) I've got to do it....beginning to scare myself now!

    Fantastic! Tomorrow will test me as my family are visiting for the day. So cue loads of cooking and housework in preparation. Usually afterwards I feel like a drink as I am usually exhausted and a little depressed by the whole thing:(. I might plan ahead and get some chocolate and elderberry cordial in and plan to knit the neckband on my nieces dress. There is no way I can pick up stitches whilst drinking:rotfl:.

    Thanks everyone

    Feeling lot better this morning. I know its the drink that caused me to feel so poorly. If I'd EATEN something that made me feel like that then I wouldn't hesitate to never eat it again. Yet, with alcohol, I know I will find it hard. Very wierd :(

    Chloris - I find any occasion when I have people coming is hard for me. I'm not a hugely sociable person (me and OH went out with his friend and his wife Saturday and I got plastered - pure nerves). I enjoy being with immediate family and thats about it. Hope you get on ok - the knitting is a good idea - I love knitting but can't do it when I've had a few!

    Rachel - glad to hear you are feeling more positive today. Yes, drink can make you feel more morbid. Lots of ((hugs))

    Miss P
