    Did it! Thanks for asking Chardonnay - stayed till the bitter end when gins and whiskys were getting knocked back at a scary rate, and I didn't feel the need for anything beyond a slice too many of very chocolatey cake. Am super happy with myself, so 11/15 please shaggy.

    Yay! Well done Dansmam! It's a great feeling when you achieve something like that isn't it?! A feeling that no amount of alcohol can replace! :)

    16/22 please Shaggy. Monday again! :(

    16 please, Shaggy, thanks

    I did Parkrun on Saturday morning, then to a wedding party, then on to another friend's party (everything happens at once) but unfortunately I had eaten hardly anything and the wine went straight to my head and I still feel awful now. When will I ever learn?

    Onwards and upwards ....

    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.
