Read the 2 above posts from Byrdy and Fallen angel. We need to have a plan, then we've just got to plough through like a bullock through a muddy swamp, and keep going at all costs untill we come out the other end into the daylight.
Summery weather here still. 30c on average this week and more to come. I love it, but some parts of the area badly need some rain. Rain hail or shine i'm ok. Why? Cause i'm sober today and staying that way.
Have a great day or evening everyone. :h

Hi all, well I totally resonate with all you day oners. Most consecutive I've managed is 26. Seems a few of us around the same mark. Shall we try for 7 days and go from there?
Early start and late finish today. Felt fine all day, then as soon as I finished BIG craving hit. Ate and now in bed. It passed. Day 3 and tea in bed again, phew!You were born with wings, why prefer to crawl through life? Rumi

Morning all from downunder!
Great stuff FF!
No hangover, and no negativity. There's just no room for that anymore.
Have a good one out there.

Hi everyone,
Keep pushing through to the light!
FF. I like Russell. Any chance you could post a link to that documentary?
Wishing all a safe, sober, and magical weekend.

Hi G,
Just finished watching documentary. Very moving. Russell spot on and hit where it hurt. I've tried to post a link for you but not yet available (probably because it's just been shown). I don't know how it works from Oz linking up to UK sites but you can try bbc.co.uk/iplayer and then searching for, 'From Addiction to Recovery'. If you have no joy (but give it a little time), let me know and I'll try posting a link when it's available. Seriously worth watching. He knows what he's talking about, promotes abstinence recovery and challenges certain medics who 'know'. Hope you get to see it.You were born with wings, why prefer to crawl through life? Rumi

Thanks for the heads up on, and link to, the Russell Brand doc; great viewing. I think it would be a good idea to post it on general as I'm sure a lot of folks would be interested in it. (I'd try but probably fail :-) )
