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!).

Well done to everyone on the challenge :T
I am out myself tonight so definitely not AF. Will be doing another Mon-Thurs challenge next week if anyone is interested in keeping me company.

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:D:D:D:D Debt Free as of 26/3/2012

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
