Hi each, life is now back to "normal"! 4/30 here and a football week-end, 3 games in 3 days (Lewes, Maidstone, Bowers). 10 goals and 2 red cards! Back on topic - still don't fancy a drink, last time was April 5th (maybe 4th) so well pleased with my efforts!Now a gainfully employed bassist again - WooHoo!5

Good morning everyone.
4/25 please cathybird. Thank you. XA former work colleague has contacted me to say that she is doing Dry January for Action Duchenne and would I support her and perhaps join her? I said I would certainly support her with a donation and sponsor myself to complete DJ or as many days as possible. A relative has a milestone birthday this month and is hoping to have a big bash so I am uncertain whether I will attempt the full 31 days. I shall leave my target at 25 however.2 -
That's a good plan @marahouti. So the charity will gain regardless of whether you go for the whole month.
Glad you enjoyed your football @RobM99. Ours was postponed because of Covid.
Out this evening and driving so definitely no plans to drink.
