    PLEASE PUT YOUR AFDs IN A BOLD RED FONT and good luck! (and if I've made any mistakes, don't be shy, please let me know!)

    EVERYONE WELCOME
    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.

    Morning all - need your advice..
    Last night I had a sip of larger to stop it spilling over my shoes, a sip of vodka and lime, cos the barman got our drinks mixed up(very hard to tell the difference between a lime and soda and a vodka, lime and soda!) and a sip of Southern Comfort and coke, just because I wanted to see what it tasted like :)

    So, have I now broken my 70 day run?!?

    Ended up on tap water as danced all night and needed pure rehydration lol

    21 please, Shaggy, thanks

    Tracy - no, I think you are OK!!

    Really enjoyed my wine last night - Mr Pricey came back after having been away for over a week, and it was actually nice to see him again!! So had a few glasses of wine together. I'm tired today, but could never give it up completely.

    Morning all

    19 please Shaggy

    Trying to get my little brain in gear to work out a target for May. Likely to be an up and down month and we are away for a long weekend in the middle. Ummmm think my Target will be 18.

    The boys have just headed off for a play-area. I cried off as the thought of going out in that horrendous weather was not at all enticing!!:rotfl:

    Tracey_36 - I'm with Pricey, think you're alright on that one :)

    Miss P

    Definitely not!! You wouldn't be saying that if you'd had a liqueur chocolate or a bowl of sherry trifle and I reckon the alcohol content is about the same. Onwards and upwards for you!

    Sorry to hear life is still tough MissP but you do seem to be coping well. Good that you've got an hour to yourself this morning. You always come across as such a caring and supportive person but the dowside of that is you seem to have the weight of the world on your shoulders (i.e. other people's problems). :T on resisting the wine. Glad that Hopsy is injecting a bit of fun into life.

    All is well here. My team is promoted to the Premier League after a very nervy few weeks.:j:T Unfortunately I didn't feel like too much celebrating last night as foolishly drunk too much on Friday night. Only as much wine as I was having daily previously but I had my first hangover in months. Good reminder for me. Anyway champagne is still in the fridge and we'll have it later. I have people for dinner so they can help us celebrate.

    Me too, Maman, and also last night. :eek: Not pleased about this enormous BLIP. :( They always happen when I've got lots of work going on. :mad: Still, onwards and upwards as they say. :j

    I hope everybody has a good week.
