Another lovely day here so the rest of the sheets have been dried outside, I love the smell of line dried sheets although it's not great for the pollen allergies...

Once you get over the 2 week 'shakes' it gets easier;) I've made it to three and a bit months now (although the 'bit' does only equate to 3 days!) honestly though SS I have saved so much not buying that 'it's the weekend/I've had a tough day/it's Easter etc bottle of wine. You can do it!February13 - £74990 (or thereabouts)

I think you are right Natty, did it a couple of years back when I was training for a half marathon and found after 4 weeks or so I didn't fancy the idea of a drink, that said I have a large glass of red at my side right now:oMortgage OP 2025 £7050/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

That's it exactly - I don't even want to have a drink which is weird. I figured that having no alcohol in the hose was the key, but currently have 2 bottles of wine in the fridge (daughter's purchase) and absolutely no inclination to drink.....

Yep I'm here and at your side Skinty ... Thing is for me that's not really such a challenge I didn't drink for 5 years before we went to Las Vegas ( that place would drive you to drink) so I may add a wee extra something on if I may ?0
