    I'm on 4/16 please Shaggy.

    It should be more. :( Last week wasn't good. I twisted my neck on the way to work and it seized up overnight and was very painful. So I've had a week at home unable to do much but watch TV. I went to an osteopath on Friday and it has been improving since then. It was a locked joint apparently. It was painful to swallow but still managed to swallow wine. Going to get a grip this week I hope.

    Alex - please keep posting and don't be too disappointed. Put it behind you and plenty of time left in April to rack up the AF days.

    I'm not doing so well this month and as a consequence will not meet my target. Not posted on here as I am somewhat disappointed in myself.

    6/25.


    I am not doing so well this month either Alex and, like you have not been posting as much :(

    Congrats to all those that managed to have AF days over the weekend - I didn't manage any :o but I am determined to get back on track tonight so am declaring early at 5/12 please shaggy.

    Nor did I and I'm feeling really out of sorts today as a result. Not properly hung over just jaded. The same thing happens if I eat too much junk food.


    Calling in for tonight.


    6 AFDs please Shaggy.

    10/16 for me please.
    I found that I can cheat myself by just having a glass of tonic water, and forgetting to put the gin in! :)
