    I got tickets for Monday, the Athletics morning session at the stadium. No finals or stand out GB competitors but I'm pleased to just have the opportunity to be there.
    1 more AF day to report please.

    Oh that's so brilliant!!! Just being in the stadium would be fab. :D
    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.

    :wave:pip, good to see you.:)

    I found stop button last night too. very pleased after a few over indulgent occasions recently. Wasn't really enjoying my final glass but did finish it over a period of time (watching football, Greg Rutherford, Jessica and Mo!!). When I looked in the fridge this morning almost a third of bottle left!!

    Morning All,

    I have had a very boozy weekend :o I am not going to dwell though. Not sure if today will be AF...there is a family celebration tonight though so I won't be too cross if I do have a drink, but will be on guard and hope my stop button is working! Then I have just 2 weeks until we go away so my plan is to be as AF as possible until then.

    I hope everyone is well, I'm off to get ready for work :( would much rather be home watching the Olympics!

    Morning :hello:

    1 more AFD for me. I did hear the bells in the distance last night - but they were quite far away :D

    Morning, well had a couple this weekend, expected and planned. Was quite nice to share a bottle on Sat night with step dad, but that was it - no more! Also Sun we had an event to attend, so the glass of champagne and glass of wine with lunch were (free) sum total. Not AF but quite OK with that. Nothing planned this week so going to hit the gym and stay AF until the weekend, we shall then see.
