    Thanks guys, had some wobbly moments last night I must admit. Tonight was plain sailing which is unusual for me on day 3 so that’s good news. I have scoffed a chunk of cheddar this evening though!


    I remember HB saying that she cut herself some slack with chocolate consumption when going AF. It's best not to be too hard on yourself, one thing at a time. :)


    5/10 AFDs please Baileys.


    This could be the last for a week or so as I have a very social weekend coming up and then we're off to Italy for a week. Plenty of month left when I get back though.;)

    Actually re-reading my post I look a bit callous re my workmate's illness, not jumping up and down with joy over that, he's got a cold and is not too bad really, it's just that he's not up for a drink :)

    8/31 for today please although I am seriously tempted due to a wasted day on the phone caused by a major retailer having a meltdown of their delivery system due to snow, they have now lost my business and item will be purchased elsewhere.
    I understand snow causes delays but do not understand how a 3 day delivery can change to a 12 day delivery and then change to the item is out of stock (as in they sold my already ordered item to someone else)
    Sorry rant over and as I am on day 47 in a row I am not blowing my upcoming 50 in a row for J**n Useless L**wis

    Oh dear! Seems like snow is being used as an excuse for error. JL is certainly not the store it used to be. Profits down today and now you've gone and made it worse.:rotfl:
    Well done on your resolve to stick to AF.:T
