    Well done everyone for putting in the booze-free days. I appear to be using having no target as an excuse to drink every day and feel tired and jaded as a result. Shaggy please pop me down for 8 in August when the time comes around.

    How about setting a target for the rest of the month ;) Might help you get back on track :) Good luck x

    I am calling early for tonight. 1 more please Shaggy.

    6/20 AFDs please Shaggy.

    Today and tomorrow will not be AFDs! Off to the races to see Tom Jones tonight and off on DSD's hen night tomorrow! Dreading the double hangover on Sunday already :o

    Determined not to go overboard though and remember Shaggy's (I think) stop button....I will report back on Sunday :)

    Have a good one everyone!

    an AFD yesterday and still feeling yuk, so I know there'll be another AFD for me today, therefore a very early call of 9/20
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    Sorry to hear that satchmo. At least it's Saturday. Take care of yourself.


    I'm feeling yuk too but it's all self induced.:o Planned drinking last night but I've become such a lightweight that it's left me feeling hungover. I can't believe I used to drink this much every night of the week. :eek:
