    10/23; please Shaggy. Back from the mini break! I did split a bottle of wine with the OH when eating out on a couple of nights and I enjoyed it but didn't feel the need to have anymore than that - straight back into the AFD swing. Well done everyone for great Feb. totals.

    Oops, mini slip up.

    Not only did I drink Fri and Sat, but also Thursday and Sunday, hmmm.

    Can I join the SNC and go for 4 please? I'm up to 1 this week.

    My total for February is 5/14 and for the year is 33/183.
    Pink Sproglettes born 2008 and 2010
    Mortgages (End 2017) - £180,235.03
    (End 2021) - £131,215.25 DID IT!!!
    (End 2022) - Target £116,213.81
  • I decided my conscience wouldn’t let me have a cold cure with a shot of whisky in and still claim an AF day, so I held off and am now at 11/25, thank you.

    Instead I picked up some Night Nurse and interestingly (OK maybe it’s a little boring), the leaflet says it contains 18% alcohol which sounds like a lot, and in fact 20ml of this medicine is equivalent to 72ml of beer or 30ml of wine! So I probably could have had the whisky hot toddy after all...

    Hello
    I ended up drinking on Sunday, finishing off the last of the beer in the fridge. So, today is 2/5 for the SNC and 8/15 for February.
    Say what you mean.. mean what you say... without being mean.

    7/20 and 1SNC please.

    I have had some wine Sunday and Monday as I am on holiday but none tonight so yay, got a smilie! I'm not sure how the rest of the week will go but do want to make a choice to drink rather than just because, if that makes sense to anyone except me.
