    Just trying to refamiliarise myself with you all (and vice versa) prior to jumping back on :o


    lol at 'lurksome' :rotfl: :rotfl: :T

    Ooh yeah tomorrow is the big day isn't it? Are you having a drink tonight as your last one? I forget - are you cutting down or stopping completely?

    Well...could be.I certainly get more compliments about my glowing skin now and I feel younger as well ,with loads more energy because I am sleeping properly for the first time in about 30 years.LOL:D

    Can I just ask ( I am sure you have already said this in a previous post but my memory is rubbish!) how long were you drinking too much?

    I have been drinking serioulsly(sp) since I lost my DH1 when I was 20 so have mostly spent the last 32 years being drunk or hungover.Have tried many times to stop.But having DH2 drinking everynight made it very hard.(He still does)Keep nagging him to stop too :D. Dont know how I have managed to do it so far but am determined that I must for my health and sanity.

    Love Mollypollyxxxx:A

    Guys and gals,

    In discussion with the present and final Mrs Lurks, we have decided to make a pact, whereby we abstain for a period of no less than 10 days, starting Monday.......

    I think we're going to need the help and support of you guys on here (Mrs Lurks...well....lurks :confused: ) and hopefully, together, we will get to at least 10 days dry...... and then take it from there......

    So, if I don't see you before, try and pop in sometime next week to offer some [STRIKE]verbal abuse[/STRIKE] words of encouragement :D

    Thanks all :T :T

    :DNeigh, neigh, and thrice neigh :D
