15/25 AFDs - I've just worked out that I can't make my target of 25. Note to self -- that doesn't mean you can give up giving up, okay!
I only have 5 more days to go to reach target but I don't think I will make it with the bank holiday weekendI almost succumbed TWICE today! BIL came for lunch unexpectedly but fortunately refused a glass of wine, so I didn't need to join him. Then almost celebrated DGD's GCSE results but can feel happy for her without a drink. We'll celebrate properly another day.
11 AFDs and 3 for the SNC please.
Well done for resisting the temptation Maman :T - I did succumb and had a drink last night but only 1/2 bottle of Cobra & a 175ml glass of wine so even if I am not AF then I am still drinking much less that I would have done. Probably won't be on here much over the next few days so do have a good Bank Holiday weekend all - whether you drink or not :j0 -

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 -

It certainly has been quiet on this thread this weekend!
Gien, pop me down for 4 for the SNC. I'd completely forgotten that I shouldn't be drinking tonight and had a couple of drinks after dinner.0
