Good Morning All!
Well done everyone who stuck to their school night pledges, you're all doing great! :T
And LaLa, you stick to your guns - you are doing brilliantly! I'm sure sometimes people question when others don't drink because they actually feel guilty about drinking themselves - hope that makes sense! It's YOUR body and YOUR choice! Have a lovely weekend LaLa and I hope you enjoy the match
TooMany was not a good girl again last night I'm afraid....
not REALLY bad, but definitely not AF (2 small glasses of vino). As Bearacus said though, I'm not going to feel bad about failing - on this occassion it was a choice to have wine with my meal last night as I will not be having wine tonight (even I find it difficult to justify with egg and chips!!!).
Oh now I've written that down it sounds utterly pathetic!!!
Anyway.... have a fabulous weekend everybody, and keep up the good work! I'm going to be trying my hardest to earn my green leapy thing this weekend... we'll see! :cool: (OH does NOT make it easy!).
TooMany xx

Hi Bearacus
Please count me in - I'll have my own special 'can TooMany do better than 2 out of 4 on the school night challenge' going on behind the scenes :rotfl:
Need to do better than this week if I am going to manage this months AFD target of 15!
PS Egg and Chips - oh yes! I'd not had egg and chips for years, had it about 6 weeks ago and it has now become a regular weekly thing! Yum Yum

Was AF last night so 3 in the end for the challenge. I'll join in again next week for sure. This weekend is a quiet one at home before the holidays so I don't know whether I'll be drinking or not.Trying to keep in budget.

Good afternoon all!
Bearacus - would I be able to join the Mon-Thu challenge please?
OH's just left to take StepD home and pick up StepS. So tempting to wander up the shops for a bottle of wine but am sitting firm at the moment!:(

Hi - not been on here for a while as been on holiday. Managed to stay AF for 5 of the 7 nights. One of the nights I did have a little drinky was my 30th Birthday. So so far since I've started doing this I've done 10AF out of a possible 12 woop woop!0
