Good afternoon everyone,
5 please Cathy
Well it's not just buses that come along at once. I've been waiting over a year for two surgical procedures I had almost resigned myself that it probably wouldn't happen until 2021. Unbelievably I had a phone call from different departments within an hour of each other this morning offering me a date. I wasn't expecting two calls, so accepted the first procedure, hopefully there is light at the end of the tunnel. Obviously things can change up until your wheeled into theatre, but I'm keeping everything crossed.
Enjoyed some lovely sunshine over the last few days.

4/20 Another Thursday but now no father in law to have a beer with as he isn't in our bubble (that's another story).
Nothing to see here, move along.5 -
Probably too cold to meet him outside 1:1! I think that's allowed. Well it is here.Coveredinbees!!!! said:4/20 Another Thursday but now no father in law to have a beer with as he isn't in our bubble (that's another story).5 -
Stuck out last night and ended up being designated driver and drove some customers home at the end of the night. Today Ive stayed AF as well which means I'm 4/26 done. I've used up 1 of my allowed days so far. And regretted it!
BTW Has anyone seen the "One year, no beer" movement on social media? My understanding is that you can do challenges i.e 28 days, 3 months or 1 year without alcohol.

Well done Manpants, I think I would find being AF very difficult working in such close proximity to alcohol.
Declaring early for today Friday so 6/21 please.4
