    I can't see why you shouldn't be proud of what you've achieved this month, Dizzy. Jolly well done.

    Welcome aboard, Libertus! Are you doing Belle's 100 Day Challenge? Well done on reaching Day 23.

    You're racking up some seriously impressive number, Barny, very quietly.

    27/30 please, Shaggy.
    Better is good enough.
  • Please can I have a target for October of 16
    What goes around comes around.....I hope!

    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.

    12/15 for me please Shaggy
  • Evening all, sorry haven't been around for a few days and I've slipped ever so slightly off the wagon. It was a neighbour's 90th birthday, a friends 60th birthday party and son's house warming, so did partake!!!


    Declaring 24/30 for tonight, so won't reach my target this month now but waking up with a sore head after the 60th party made me remember why I was trying to abstain!!


    Could you put me down for 21/31 for October please, on holiday for a week and it's my birthday but will try to be low alcohol not AF on those 10 days.


    Thanks Shaggy for keeping score and to everybody else for the motivation
