    I'm joining people on the wagon today and hopefully all this week. I drank Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights and I feel like carp today.:o :rolleyes:

    I am going drink lots of water and hopefully have AFD until Friday at least!

    Thanks Shoppie! Good luck to you too.:T

    I fell asleep on the sofa last night as well and woke up about 5 wondering why I felt so squashed, my neck is sore today. :mad: I used to fall asleep downstairs a lot when I used to drink quite heavily, it seems like a few other people on here fall asleep downstairs too, I wonder if that is common with people who drink.:confused:

  • Another weekend off the wagon here, just 4 beers in total, not feeling rough, just didn't really need them.
    Think the seatbelts on this wagon need checking every friday night....
