    Love the December smilies!

    22/31 please, Shaggy.
    Better is good enough.
  • Made it to 8/10 on weds night, but went out for an early birthday lunch with work colleagues yesterday and had a glass of wine. Made me sleep all afternoon.

    Doubt I will be AF for a while now - birthday today, birthday meal tomorrow, then Christmas eve, but still hope to get closer to target for the month, could be tricky!
    What goes around comes around.....I hope!
  • Since I last posted I’ve had 3 hungover mornings and no alcohol free days. It’s good to see how busy the thread is in December this year- you’re all doing really well!

    I want to commit to another one this evening which will take me to 7/10 in December please Shaggy.

    Happy Friday everyone!

    Happy Birthday lucy. Enjoy!:)


    I'm undecided about today. I'll be happy if I can have another AF day to add to my total but not sure when.


    Hope you're successful tonight wbf. Certainly don't want hang overs.:(
  • Happy birthday Lucy!

    16/5 AF . Going into the real Christmas period now though so unlikely to get more in next few days. Will try to keep posting though.

    Good morning all, 19/21 for me please. :)

    I had drinks with a friend yesterday at lunchtime and then went out in the evening. All together it came to five and a half drinks over an eight-hour period. Today I slept in very late and I did wake up at 3.30am and took a while to get back to sleep. But apart from that I pretty much feel fine. Even last year I probably would have totally overdone it on my "days off" and woken up with a massive headache and feeling ill. So I'm happy.

    11/15 for tonight please - a real struggle as I usually enjoy an end of the week drink on a Friday. Won’t be able to have an AFD tomorrow as friends visiting but don’t intend to drink much either.

    Happy birthday Lucy, hope you have had a lovely day.

    Last night was pretty easy, although I have woken up early with stuff running through my head. I hope everyone has a good Saturday.
