I'm a tad late for the Annual Challenge but I'm up to 210 AFDs in 2020, including 60 in 61 from July 31. Bingo!Now a gainfully employed bassist again - WooHoo!3

I won't add this to the main list cos it's too big but well done Season of Mist, what a fantastic effort and here's your special emoji!4

Thanks for the annual score Cathy. I'm almost averaging 16 a month, over half when I target a third . I'm delighted. A silver lining to lockdown. 😁4

Thanks cathybird! I love those jazzy letters. Also thanks for the comments maggiem, marahouti and maman.
Looking back, the encouragement on this thread has been a huge help to me and has really helped me to achieve the following:
In 2018 I did exactly 3 months in a row AF.
In 2019 I did exactly 6 months in a row AF.
In 2020 I am 6 months and counting in a row AF (hoping to reach 200 consecutive days).
Also apart from those long stints I have been able to cut back more generally which to me is just as significant as the dry months; I have checked back to the start of this year and we are on day 274, I have been AF on all but 9 of those days. This is from someone who drank too much, for too many years. I never did believe it would be possible to break that spell - but it really can be done.5 -
Great words Season of mist, well done3
