      Good morning everyone

      Thanks for stopping by Mr G. Happy New Year to one and all.

      I am grateful for my health. Woke up this morning to the news that cousins daughter had died. Early 40’s and think alcohol played a role in it.

      Awake very early but now it is bright I will take doggies out for their walk. Have a lovely day everyone.

          Sorry to hear that Rusters...a lot of people seem to die round this time of year...many years ago our 16 year old nephew hanged himself NYE...wasn't found until the next day..and alcohol on all sides contributed to that...so awful and by god....I'm grateful for so many things I have to think and choose...but over EVERYTHING...I am eternally grateful that alcohol is out of my life completely...not just white knuckling but utterly and completely irrelevant to me...that is a gift beyond price.
          HNY to you too MrG....would love you posting over here more often so we know how things are going for you? !
          I'm a lazy mare re. reading around the boards!
          Enjoy your walk Rusters. We had a marathon hike yesterday so today...right now...IM STILL IN THE BED!!

            Got me thinking they put a warning on cigarettes they should start putting them on booze.

              Hi army folk. That’s awful Rustop.
              Ethanol is a toxic chemical, why would I drink it?

                  Happy new year guys.
                  Mostly grateful for having found you all here and the support you give. For most of us, it's life changing.
                  So sorry to hear about your cousins daughter [MENTION=15758]rustop59[/MENTION].
                  And your right about the drugs replacing booze.. those poor dogs

                  Well we had the usual drama last night. One of my daughters friends got so drunk, she vomited all over another friends bedroom (party in the house). What was most worrying though was that none of them were drinking. This little one had something in her bag and was drinking on her own in the bathroom. They are all so annoyed.

                  Nice easy day. A good start to the new year.

                    God love her - she's obviously the one who will need to be vigilant. Self medicating her social anxiety as most of us did
                    Was she really the only one drinking ? Was it a case of " wasn't me" Ma

                      Morning

                      Lord knows with them. Take everything you are told with a pinch of salt. At least you have a clear head dealing with it Mary.

                      Just did airport run with daughter so holiday is officially over. Airport was much quieter than I was expecting. Are the Germans still with you Satz? Actually looking forward to going back to normal. Work in the morning.

                      Going to have a nice relaxing day today.

                        Haha...we had one of those occasions...5th year school tour...the 'only one drinking' was caught having a sneaky beer (6'2" 15 Yr old...how to tell!) by the teachers...the rest of the virtuous classmates only caught out when 3 of them vomited on the bus home ;-)
                        I never believed a word out of my kids mouths till they were 21!!
                        Normality is wonderful Rusters...now to get rid of all these tins of sweets and biscuits!

                          Afternoon my lovelies.
                          Bit late as we've been to Hobbycraft to get me through the winter. Got a tapestry and a painting by numbers...............Mr. JC got carried away and bought one for himself .......the painting by numbers as he couldn't thread a needle to save his life.

                          I'll admit that I was drinking at 15...........we used to get the bus into town on a children's ticket then put our make-up on when we got to town. There was just one pub that didn't give a flaming feck who they served.

                          Ma-in-Law has been moved to another posher nursing home which she finds much better than the last one. She may be 97 but she's a cracking snob.
