  • 16/29 please Cathybird, counting today. Had a drink on Sat evening but sort of regretted it even at the time. Just don’t really seem to enjoy it anymore. Had been for a long run earlier in the afternoon and would have been much better off just re-hydrating properly and getting an early night. Instead I was tired, lethargic & grouchy all day Sunday.

    I think it means alt's wife wants to buy a £17 500 handbag which isn't budgeted for. It makes not drinking (or the other stuff) quite an achievement. 😉
