    Many moons ago Winebox gifted me Alan Carr's Easy Way to Control alcohol. I am happy to gift it on now - Message me your address if you would like it to be you.

    Dizzy, your post made me chuckle. Well done and glad you also smell lubbly!

    Shaggy, I hope you're ok, fingers crossed for you. I haven't had any more AFDs so I'm still on 12/14 please Shaggy and 14 for March please.

    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.

    I actually had a pretty stressful day yesterday, taking pet to the vet and then my computer blew up (am currently on backup tiny travel laptop, which is in fact quite a useful little thing). Have had a really expensive Feb, it's just been one thiing after another. Around sunset I really wanted a drink but I didn't have one so am pleased with myself for that.

    Bit worried about Shaggy, she hasn't posted since Wed, that's not like her :(

    Hi Cathy - I try to post once on each page so I don't clutter up the thread with my posts - when the thread is a little quiet it can be a few days before I post - in January it can be everyday - in December once a week!

    I popped in on Thursday and the thread hadn't flipped over to a new page. Yesterday I was just mad busy in RL - but everything is good here :-)

    Same. Though mine was self inflicted sort off - I needed a new coat (old one ripped) but ended up buying 2 jackets in the sales plus I needed a couple of jumpers and new PJs and I bought another new top just 'cos I looked great in it!!!! £300!!!
    :cool:
