The January Abstinence Club

[DTCwordfan]

Co Presidents, Sibton and I

Purpose - one month of the booze starting today, a support group to help, cajole, berate any ABers to meet this goal. The benefits being the drying out of the old leather known as the leather and a lack of ethanol in the body helping to lead to weight loss - which can be a couple of pounds a week.

You are welcome to join us and rant away with our grumps and withdrawal symptoms and then become all-saintly and righteous when we get towards the goal.

Any questions? Though sibs and I won't necessarily answer them. Will Sqad contribute on any medically related issues?

thanks DT.

It's five years in February since a drop of alcohol passed my lips. Now, where is that halo polisher??

one for you, chrissa...........meant as a laugh!

[chrissa1]

Ha ha DT. I hope my liver is thanking me. I still smoke though.....Well, a girl has to have one vice.

[DTCwordfan]

now that I don't do....other vices too but not including gambling either (minus a flash on the National)

Could do with something like this thread only with chocolate and cakes, especially iced ones. I put on 2 lbs over the Christmas week, so it's back to the grindstone for me. I really enjoyed every last mouthful!

Sitting with my glass of Adam's Ale, your health DT, and everyone else, one day at a time. Good evening all.

DT - i know my knowledge of english language is not perfect but should that read Co Presidents, sibton and Me or even Me and Sibton?

[DTCwordfan]

I would have thought "I" as it could be seen as the subject of a non-existent verb......however, I stand corrected if so, and there were enough other errors!

So when are you stepping on the wagon, sibs......?

[lady-janine]

DT - not trying to be pedantic, really just want to know. hope i haven't offended you. did not mean to.

[lady-janine]

sounds to me as though she already has.

[DTCwordfan]

Not at all!

Penalty, a slug of gin perhaps? lol

[DTCwordfan]

Now you learn something every day on here. I have never heard the expression, sibs.......

[lady-janine]

okay i'll take that penalty, don't trouble yourself.

[Psybbo]

DT, I hope you are well, I've had the munchies tonight, 3 pints of water, now a cup of tea

[DTCwordfan]

3 ginger beers and a packet of cheese and onion crisps, not withstanding the Adams Ale as you put it, before I headed out.

[DTCwordfan]

non-alcoholic I hasten to add........

[Psybbo]

DT, hellooooo
