Wecome to here.

I was the new boy at one time, and it's daunting, isn't it? As an observer everyone seems really nice and friendly to each other. I thought it seemed very clique-y and put off posting because I thought I'd be seen an an outsider, but everyone's cool.

Us blokes are also vastly outnumbered I think, so you have to overlook the oestrogen-fest the thread becomes every now and again.

Well, I break up on thursday for 4 weeks, which is great, but I have loads of work to do over Easter, and then I have to start revision for finals as well. Get my draft of my dissertation back on thursday, to make final tweaks to it over Easter, and then that'll be handed in the first week back. Got another 2 essays to do as well over Easter - its all fun! :rolleyes: I hope work is going okay for you today, take care sweetie xx

morning all, losing track of what day i'm onto, gets like that in school hols, every day feels like the weekend lol.
welcome phil, we are all really friendly here, so feel free to post
been to supermarket this morn, which was stressful enough, and when i got home, and was putting the shopping away i dropped a 4pt carton of milk, it exploded, and jumped all the way up the kitchen walls, all over the fridge and freezers, all over radiator, and the carpet. cleaned it up, and made myself a cup of tea, and even though i was fed up it had happened, i didnt get so upset that i started crying, so fairly pleased with myself.
off to make some lunch in a bit for me and ds, then i to go see my counsellor at the alcohol clinic this afternoon, be good to talk to him, and i dont feel too bad about going, as i have made massive improvements in my drinking., and hardly touch the stuff now, maybe a glass of wine a week.
big hugs to everyone
