  • Another day without booze so 3/20, also been making my own lunch for work so not been near a fast food joint so far this week. Hoping to be losing some pounds and saving some pounds.
    Nothing to see here, move along.

    Ah Manpants I'm so sorry you have had this reminder that alcohol can be poisonous and hope you are feeling better today after yesterday's abstinence. Draw a line under it, all it means is that you have used one of your four planned drinking days this month 🙂X

    Morning all!    5/28 here, pumpkin-in-a-hat on the horizon.
    That's 248 AFD's in 2020 for me, since July 31 I've had one bottle of St*lla (camping trip!) and one small bottle of Corona (ooh the irony - because it was "Up yours, Covid" (being Corona :smile: )) and it was only 49p ! So that's 96/98 alc' free days since then. Therefore since end July I've saved nearly £500 towards the new car - £1,240 this year. 
    Only a couple of times in that 98 days have I thought "Oooh, I fancy a pint!) which is really odd, considering the state I was in. I'm not telling you this and you're not reading it...I used to, on occasions, be at the mini-market @ 0810 to buy beer because it opened @ 08:00 (I've never been one to keep drink in the home, if I wanted some I'd go buy it, take it home and drink it). That's bad, I know. But now, I'd rather have a minty choc-ice!
    Now a gainfully employed bassist again - WooHoo!
