  • Good morning all.

    18/24

    HB I have the Beatrix potter books but at my mums house so I think they have gone to my niece who is 11. I think they are still "in" but I also have no children so not sure. I'm going to buy he gruffalo for my other nieces/nephew. Mamam thank you for recommendation.

    The thing you have have written HBabout alcohol not kicking in as soon as you drink it. This is something my previous boss said to me very kindly when we had a big Night and everyone drank too much.
    He said that he was watching people who had drank too much then drinking more
    Before the previous glass had even hit them. Then getting on the train home. I think he was a bit disappointed in me putting myself in this stupid situation .

    But also i think he too was reading the papers and getting quite concerned.
    He was asking me about my journey home and trying to get me to think a bit more about what could happen.
    In recent years the alcohol culture at work has accelerated. But I think sober October and sober January are really good things that are helping to turn the tide. No alcohol plans today and next week last week before payday should be quiet one.
    2017- 5 credit cards plus loan

    2018 plans - reduce debt
