WELL!!!! Hello to a lot of new names & a few "oldies" (no offence, spect I'm the oldest).
I've not been on MSE at all for a year, well out of touch with this thread, but hey needing you guys still / again. Total crap at being af but trying to work myself up to getting there, haven't been lurking on here just thought I'd dive straight back in.
Not even going to try & start af until Sunday......hope that'll see the start of it.
Going to spend a couple of days getting to know the newbies (except you're not now) & catching up with those who were here before.
So, hi all & look forward to joing the challenge v shortly (is it a perm job these days shaggy?)

Morning Everyone :wave:
Hope everyone is doing well.
Maman & Melg - If you've struggled recently try not to dwell on it. Today is a new day
Shaggy & Bearacus - I know lots of others say it, but thank you for taking charge of the challenges so well :T
MissP - How are your eggs doing? Have they fertilized?! :rotfl:
I was thinking last night, I have been coming on here about a year now. Lots of things have changed in that year. Unfortunately lots of things haven't. We're back up to an average 2 1/2 bottles a day nowI know there's not much I can do about it, but it is on my mind a lot. Health reasons, financial reasons, general behaviour and responsibilites reasons. That quantity everyday is just wrong on so many different levels.
But I want to say thank you to every single one of you that has helped me and listened to me ranting over the last year. You guys are fab!! :iloveyou:
