    Hi there,

    Been awol for a week, I've realised! Now on 8/10 please Shaggy.

    My son's results were inconclusive and he's due to see a specialist but he is actually getting better. We think the doctors have missed the fact that he was pulled off steroids really quickly and his illness has been the result. Ho hum. More to come!

    I've managed 4 AF days in the last 7 so I'm quite pleased.

    I can't set a target for 2018 yet as I have no idea but I will do at some point.
    My January target is 15/31 please.

    :)

    10/18. Doing better than I thought.

    PollyAnna I can’t relate to what you’ve typed completely. It could be me typing it. Well done on resisting last night. There would have been a time you couldn’t.
    Live for the moment and plan for the future
  • 6/10 for last night for me please.
    What goes around comes around.....I hope!
  • Morning

    Morning all, 13/21 for me please.

    I was out on the town last night, had red wine, had a very nice time and this morning am feeling fine so clearly did not overdo it, pleased with that.

    This "What's your drinking nationality" quiz on the BBC website this morning is quite fun and moreover instructional: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-30500372

    I got Turkmenistan - that's got to be good, isn't it? ... :rotfl:

    It is good to see I drink a lot less than the average Brit, though it makes me wish the average Brit would also drink less.

    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.
