10 weeks ago i started a thread asking for help - i was in a very desperate place, totally dependent on alchohol, unhappy, lonely and floundering around trying to make sense of it all. i was in danger of losing everything i hold dear.

in those few short weeks, i have got my life back and picked up a few computer friends along the way - we help each other, support each other, and laugh and cry together - if you would like to join us, please feel free - no judging, preaching, sermonising or moralising - we are simply ordinary people with a bloody awful illness!

I never do the monks tour at Fountains Abbey now though - thought I would just walk round behind the dc's but no. The adults had to wear habits too. On a packed sunny day. Oh, the shame :o

toclear - I say scone to rhyme with gone too. The other way sounds extremely posh to me!

Ripon, Harrogate, York all lovely places!

RedMoomin · 10/08/2010 14:02

Have not tried the monk's tour toclear but it sounds hilarious!

Yes, I think watching from afar would be the best option!

Is it possible to 'catch' toothache?! If so, I blame MissP! In a bit of pain here....!
