    Morning all!


    14/30 please, Shaggy.


    Good luck with tonight Aneres. I realised after you said you'd stopped for six months a while back that I was trying to teach granny to suck eggs. *Respect*
    Better is good enough.

    I don't think I called or insinuated that anyone else is alcoholic.


    Speaking personally, you do come a little close sometimes.

    This thread probably wouldn't need to exist if we were all normal social drinkers
    Though I would think that most social drinkers are 'take it or leave it' and don't need a forum/thread to keep on top of their drinking. [Emphasis added]

    As relative newbie, the posts that I find most interesting are the 'helpful and supportive,' rather than didactic ones.

    Apologies, not my intention.

    Agreed. :)

    Advice is always welcomed HB.

    Well I only went and did it and had a really good time.

    80p for soda water I couldn't believe the price, switched to cans of diet coke at £1 can. I thought I may as well have flavour for the extra 20p.

    It feels great to wake up fresh, I don't think DH will be able to say the same when he surfaces, is it wrong that I'm quite enjoying that thought? :rotfl:

    Pleased to say 15/30

    Have a good Sunday everyone.
  • 14/30 please.

    Thats great to hear aneres & I don't think its wrong at all! :D

    Well done Aneres. OH is feeling it today as well after five pints yesterday watching the rugby and football followed by red wine with his pizza. I feel free and rather tempted to have a good old snigger, so if that's wrong, I am too.

    HB and aneres, I think sniggering is allowed (but best do it behind your hand).;)
