    Have a good week, flimsier. I watched first episode of Educating Essex last night and thought of you. I loved the DHT's sense of humour and his relationship wth HT.

    I was accused of being like him and said "I'm not that camp!". But I loved the episode this week as well!

    2 for me please!
    Can we just take it as read I didn't mean to offend you?

    Can I join you please? Am also on the smoke free challenge too and am 1 week 1 day smoke. Have found that not smoking is helping to cut down my alcohol intake too. Need to lose some weight so after reading the inspiring posts here, thought that cutting out the booze would kick start the weight loss.

    I like to go 25 days alcohol free in October.

    Hi Everyone - hope you've all had a fantastic weekend in the sun. :cool2:

    I'm feeling quite pleased that I managed to stay AF on what will possibly be the last warm and sunny garden/BBQ day of the year...it was orange juice and soda water all the way for me today :A:p

    Lots of AFD's already being declared for October...I have a feeling we're going to have a good month.

    1 AFD for me please shaggy and, if you're running the SNC could you put me down for the full monty please bearacus?

    Lots of AF vibes to you all for success in October xx

    Morning :hello:

    Clocked up my first AFD of October.

    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.

    On a side note, if I'm super-duper frugal this month I'll be debt free by November :jIf not November then definitely December, just in time for Christmas :rotfl:

    How fantastic! I became debt free about 18 months ago. It really is a great feeling!:T
