    It sounds like another lovely weekend in the Brizzled household. Well done on AFDs. Maybe I should try that again as I gained two pounds last week.

    For anyone who likes GandT I recommend a tall glass of skinny tonic with lots of slices lemon and lime. You won't even miss the gin.

    Hello lovelies - that sounds delicious pooh.. I am currently quaffing green tea from a flask a dear friend gave me. It tastes luscious even though it's the second time I have used the bag! V :money: :rotfl: I will probably have wine this eve as going out for a long arranged event using loyalty points and a bottle of wine is included :D but it'll have been almost two weeks without alcohol which is pretty darn good for me. I do feel better and as though i wouldn't have managed without removing it. Had 4 hours sleep last night interrupted by a trip to collect students from a delayed flight.. :rotfl: so reckon I'd be very challenged if I wasn't looking after my health. Do need to work from home one day soon to get my classes up. Otherwise first class I can do may be Friday?

    In MSE news we have a houseful and most are paying guests :D Have batched cooked for first few meal and planned a few more. Charging phones as ever at work and on trains. Will nag OH to put in his overtime sheet. No bids on the auctions yet. Must check my CS totals as can put that towards my tax bill.

    Hope everyone is good

    A NSD yesterday :) but not a AFD :) but very low key. A glass of prosecco and a glass of wine. Could have been much worse. The best thing was 9 hours sleep... much much needed.

    Thanks for all the lovely comments folks - greatly appreciated

    Two more AFDs, and a couple of TTs.. one of a princely 94p!! :rotfl: not sure of plans today - have some paid work to do, but awaiting on others for more. May try some more sleep and maybe an exercise class.

    Hope everyone is well
