Same here HB and no, you don't sound preachy to me either FPT. I am bossy by nature (or so I've been told:D) and I, too, find it difficult sometimes on message boards. I do my best with words and smileys but I'd hate things to be taken the wrong way.
A drink in the sun did cross my mind too cuppa but I'll join you in refraining. There's always tomorrow which promises to be equally sunny. It's all too easy to have s*d it days after getting to target. I know June is going to be a write off as I'm away for most of it so I've told myself that May and June together must come to 2xtarget=20. I hope that makes sense. It does to me.:D

Unfortunately, I will be a couple short of target again this month, but glad to say that a few of the alcohol days only involved one glass - hurrah!
