    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.

    Hi. I'm new to this forum. I've been AF since new year's day. Aiming to be AF free until 28 January which is my wife's birthday night out. Determined to do it!

    Brilliant and l_good_luck.gif with the rest of the month. Do you want to join the January challenge?

    Afternoon all, really proud of myself, Girlie sat night in (i'm female) with pizza, goodies and dvds. Still no wine, in fact seem to have lost the compulsion to drink as a reward at the end of a long hard day!!!Hope it continues!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Off for a swim; this new healthy lifestyle will be the death of me.

    Hey Peterbunny well done on all the smiley_swimming.gif and the AFness. Do you want to join the January challenge? No pressure, just thought I'd ask....

  • 9 please, Shaggy, thanks

    Right, birthday celebration(?) over, back to being AF during the week. The only way I will achieve my target is by being af for the rest of the month. Not sure if I can see that happening, but will have a go.

    Hiya Miss P, great to see you back, and well done for all your AF-ness - I think you are allowed to slip a little with your sad happenings in RL at the moment.

    Have a good week everybody!
