Thankyou Maman and cathybird!
Very pleased to say that the quarter bottle of wine is still there. And I'm pretty sure it wouldn't have been if I hadn't have joined up to this thread this am.
Instead, I took down a very nice glass and filled it with low cal tonic water and a splash of lemon/lime and mint cordial. It's a very nice non alcohol drink that reminds me a bit of a g n t...I think it's the herbal/mint flavour that does it.
So....1/6 for me please cathybird.3 -

10/10 please for Sunday. A rare success for me but very low numbers of AFDs. However much better than no AFDs which I have managed before.

Good morning folks,
Had a very good nights sleep (have recently discovered sleep music/hypnosis on youtube, amazing!)...always something to rejoice about.
Lovely new thread for November, thankyou Cathybird!
I'm going to aim for 15.
But I really want one of those hot air balloons, like yourself, maman and redofromthestart .....where's a clapping hands emoji when you need one!

still 17/20 declaring early for Monday will get me to 18/20
20 seems very doable sometime sand sometimes a stretch
I will stick on 20 for November thank you @cathybird Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!1
