Morning all,

Missed the coffee.. Catching up from work.
AF hubbys.. Lucky! Although since I stopped, Mr Yam’s intake has dramatically dropped too. He does drink, but doesn’t measure or calculate like I do, or should I say DID.
Spill your beans Shambles, Id like some horror stories before I attend my first AF party!

Thanks JC, have geared myself up for it. Kids attending too, so it’s probably an easier one to start with, but there will be a good few vino pushers attending that will be surprised to see this dry 'sweet potato'. Taking your docs advice, will arm myself with a drink as soon as I get there.

Satz, keep meeting to ask, what happened when you took the swig of vodka last weekend, did you swallow it? Spit it out? Obviously it didn’t open a mad floodgate.. Last quit I was pushed so hard to taste this ‘spectacular’ red wine. I was so annoyed, but then they didn’t know. I had a teaspoon, but just moved on from there.
NOT planning on doing that again, but I suppose if the head is strong, these little obstacles can be defeated?

Our Molls is now going to skewel to learn all about alkies so things can only get worser :haha:
Case histories abound here though !!

Runs off .....

Evening,
Have we decided what Mrs Yam is wearing tonight?

[satz123]

evening darlinks! enquiring mind (nosy cow?) returning from work and reporting for duty ;-) Mary -- I remember years ago being on quite a long quit -- a few months anyway and I accidentally picked up a glass of wine instead of my beverage from the table - we were having people in -- and I did drink a good old slurp --- it terrified me that it would put the longing on me -- but it didn't -- and I sort of felt because I had no intention of drinking alcohol that my brain 'let me off' with the mistake -- whereas if the 'permission' was in my head to drink it it would have been a whole different ball game --- that's prolly a whole load of bollix but it felt that way at the time... wouldn't want to risk it tho

Yeah I get that Molls.
A gulp of alcohol is not going to mean sending us off into a binge - that's mad.
To me alcohol is only as strong as we let it be in our minds as Molls says.
Proof being that a 'normie' can have a glass of wine but does not feel the need to continue on chasing the buzz ....
Sounds bollix too but I think I know what I mean :haha:

Yep Mary I swallied it .... but no it didn't do anything at all.
Was like drinking sour milk or something by mistake - in that :I rinsed out my mouth - it tasted AWFUL and said "won't do that again"
