    Yay, I beat my target last night, now 14/13. I must admit I was really tempted a few times during the evening, but the thought of being over target got me through - still another AFD to come on Monday as well :j:j:j


    Looking to seeing a string of icons after my name this month :)
    What goes around comes around.....I hope!

    Do you get to reset the year as well as the day?;)

    Sadly no! But I don't feel like carp any more so that's as good as feeling at least 10, possibly 20 years younger.

    Keep going ManPants. It gets more straightforward the longer you keep it at the forefront of your mind. Temptation will always be there whether you own and run a pub or not. You know we're all rooting for you.

    I think the weight thing would be a clever thing to commit to tackling - empty calories in booze and all that. I've got nearly 6 kgs to lose and this summer I'm pretty determined is going to be that much lighter by the end of it. I hate carrying around this stomach.

    Well done Elusive Lucy! It's a real achievement when you beat your target. :T:T:T

    29/31 please, Shaggy.
    Better is good enough.

    Hi All,

    Apparently long threads have been disappearing so I'm going to ask the mods to lock this thread and I'm starting a new one Part 14 Here

    What do you think Fermi ??? - it's only a matter of time before this thread gets deleted as accidents happen with the spam button....

    Some people have expressed concern as they don't want to lose our thread which will have been running for 10 years in Feb....
