So nearly sploshed tonight - but didn't! Yes, go us!

Yah! Go us!!

Yay even!

Yah is total yuppie!

I know! I'm from Essex, no hint of yuppie here

Are you sure hooch?! I'm imagining you, lost and ponz being a bit wolf of wall street! I'm northern and am EXACTLY like Liam Gallagher in every respect!

Ok yah in the wine bah
Not really, I'm common as muck really and dh is totally cockney guvner.

Lol are you Serial?! Nope common as muck here, originally from London so Cockney/Essex slang. Can talk proper when I try though Dahling

Up the old apples and pears soon me old chinas. I'm cream crackered.

Cream crackered here too. DS threatening to go on last minute sleepover so best go lock myself in a cupboard before I go on naughty night manoeuvres

Hey, what's occurring?

Are you ok Dusty? I'm just about to go to bed and I think Hooch is in a cupboard (?)
Hope your surfboard hasn't floated off.x

I'm down t'pit!

With me whippet and flat cap!

Alright our kid, I'm off to get me head down like.

*translation: hello friend, I'm frightfully jaded and I'm retiring to my boudoir.

Ok lost, see you at the hacienda next weekend love!

Mad fer it.

Ooooh you've all gone mad for my shoe you lovely nutters! I've actually managed to leave it alone tonight but am a bit boozed up.

As a Mancunian I'm feeling a bit aggrieved to be accused of southerness but have lived in London for nigh on twenty years so kind of fair enough.

Good work staying sober surfettes today.

Onwards and upwards. I'm knackered!

I fell at the last hurdle I'm afraid, I'm such a twat. Mr Rehab called..

Ah Hooch that's just the sort of thing I'd do. Someone throws you a curve ball and you dive in.
We're all still quite fragile on our surfboards so it's understandable. A tiny gust of wind can send me overboard!

Be kind to yourself today Your weekend hasn't been a complete drug fuelled bender. You still did great Friday and most of Saturday!
Stay positive x

Never mind Hooch, it happens to the best of us!

Ah Hooch it did look a bit suspect when you introduced the idea of naughty night manoeuvres ( also made me smile). It's SO HARD when availability meets timing meets motivation to indulge. You need a seven nation army to resist it. Mr BI is the equivalent of my shoe. They both need to go.

for you today and sending hugs.

Mr BI is the equivalent of my shoe. They both need to go

Are we taking out a hit man for Mr BI now? This is has all gone a bit Reservoir Dogs

Well done Ponz for yesterday. How you can resist it when it's there is beyond me. You're way stronger than you think.

I suppose we all have our weak spots; the shoe, Mr BI, Mr Rehab, husbands, dealers that make courtesy calls or um oven dishes.

I agree lost and thanks. I can easily not do s massive binge it's just constant one to two lines three times a week to keep me going. Then the odd blow out. If you think about it my DP doesn't know so I can't get wankered. If I'm honest alcohol is more of an issue for me .

It sure makes me feel shit though.

We all have our foibles Ponz. I can see how constant dabbling with it would become really draining and very addictive! You're doing bloody well getting on top of it. I think we're all pointing in the right direction, hold on to that.
