    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.

  • 5 more AFDs to add for me so finishing January on 21/19 please as will be having a drink today.

    February - will go for 19 again please Shaggy. Thanks again for all your hard work. It must take up quite a bit of your time keeping a record of everyone's AFDs - we really do appreciate it! :T

    Everyone seems to have done really well for January! Well done to everyone who've managed a dry Jan and to everyone who hasn't for trying to moderate their drinking. For me, it's still a work in progress. I find it easy not to drink until I'm in a social situation - it's then that I need to watch myself and find that stop button!
