Morning :hello:
No new AFDs to add, it's the hot weather!
ShaggyxWhat 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.0 -
OMG GreyPilgrim that sounds horrific!!!! TBH I didn't know it was like this, I thought that the Drs just gave people an extra big shot of morphine and you passed....What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again.

21 please, Shaggy, thanks
Well, as usual, didn't manage the AF Saturday night.Sorry, Miss P, I wonder if you managed it? Beautiful sunshine, Mr Pricey and I had a bbq and he bought a bottle of prosecco - I thought about it, realised we were going to be on our own for once, and decided to join him. I also decided that one bottle of prosecco would not be enough, and bought another couple. :eek: I actually feel OK today, because it was not very strong.
:oI am refusing to beat myself up because it was a really very pleasant evening. And I wasn't setting a bad example to the DD's because they weren't there. :cool:
DD1 phoned at midnight (I was actually asleep in bed by then) with SERIOUS boyfriend trouble, and I was able to advise and comfort her in a sober way. It's all OK again now, thank goodness :eek:
No more wine now until next Saturday night - I wonder what excuse I will come up with then?0
