Shaggy, I have just realised I posted the wrong thing this morning, I'm on 24, not 23, sorry about that!

I'm seriously contemplating a dry new year's eve....I want to start the year as I mean to go on....hey ho we'll see....

Me too Shaggy although I am not confident enough to declare early - will let you know tomorrow

Still contemplating about January - would like to think I could manage dry January but not sure if I can

Thanks to Shaggy, cathybird & baileysonice for all the hard work keeping totals for us - sad that we lost Baileys from the thread - hope that you are OK if you read this

PS the numbers might not be final for December for everyone and also let me know if I've got anything wrong. Also, not everyone going in next year's annual challenge went in this year's (if people are wondering why they aren't on the list) if only because some people joined the thread more recently. xx

hey have a Happy New Year everyone, hope everyone has a lovely time tonight whether at home or out celebrating, many thanks especially to Shaggy for her hard work running the thread, and really looking forward to next year and the new challenges xxx

Happy New Year

28 in January as my target, please.
Are you like me and not having a drink tonight? x

cathybird

Niknak, I'm not drinking, plan to spend a quiet NY Eve watching a bit of telly!

Happy New Year to one and all :j

Did have one glass of fizz to bring in the New Year in the end so no more AFD’s to add to my total.

Have decided on a target of 15 for January please Shaggy but I am also aiming to reduce the units I consume when I do partake

Haven’t made any New Year resolutions - just a general plan to be healthier and increase my fitness levels :T

Distraction is definitely a great help. I like visualisation too where I tell myself that when I get in I'm going straight to the kettle, making a cuppa and relaxing on the sofa with trash tv (or whatever suits you) and then feel smug when I get through an AF evening.:D

maman, I agree with this - when I get home I play two games of solitaire on my phone lying on my bed - it doesn't take long but just unwinds me somehow, and lets me leave the workday with its stresses behind.

1/21 for today, please I hope everyone had a good new year and feels okay today!
