Does anyone have any tips for (hopefully cheap) non-alcoholic alternatives I can make that are 'grown-up' and a bit more interesting than orange juice or Ribena...?
Cadbury's drinking chocolate is my poison - summer or winter....

Hello all
Sorry to have been awol. Real life got a bit manic. My Uncle died two days ago. We've known for about a week or so that he was going downhill fast. I'm just pleased my Mum got to see him before he went (he lives in Surrey, some distance from us). So we've all been a bit all over the place. Plus I've been supporting my best friend, whose BIL (age 42) has just been diagnosed with terminal cancer. I think we are all beginning to wonder if anything good will happen this year??
Soooo....I havent been AF for a few days. I know my totals gone up a bit but have lost count I'm afraid
Hope everyone ok. Sorry to be so down. I'm actually ok. Will catch up with thread shortly.

What a cheap night, people were clambouring to buy me a 40p drink:rotfl: Not so sure they would have been buying if I had of been drinking!!
