Hi Ginge,
Thanks very much for your supportive post on my diary on Saturday mate.
I don't post too much these days, but I did feel the need to post on Satuday. It was nice to log back on and see your support. I did not bet on the race in the end. I was far too busy digging at the end of my garden til 8pm to even let it bother me. I did however partake in a few ice cold Peroni's too quench my thirst 'mid-dig'!!
Concrete being delivered tomorrow and the project is taking shape. I find this keeping busy, occupying your mind with positive stuff so rewarding these days. And as Yazz would say me old mate...."the only way is UP!!".....for me these days!!
Sorry to hear that the Easter egg hunt wasn't that much fun. Don't you just hate competitive numptie parents eh! No f*****g common sense to let the kids enjoy a fun day!! I did one for my girls, I had them up and down the stairs about twenty times, out in the garage, up and down the garden and by the end they were knackered.....when they found the smallest egg I could buy!! You should have seen their faces!! They thought that was all they were getting!
Keep strong mate, and keep in touch
All the best
Ade
Hiya,

And Secondly very strong fact - ginger is strawberry blond! 😉
My little man (nephew) is strawberry blond and god d**n i know what ya mean about getting sun on that skin..bless him.

Hope all is good in strawberry blonde land and you're keeping the fight up!
Keep winning and making the right choice, proud to walk the walk alongside you
Take care

ONE HUNDRED & FIFFFFF-TY 🙂 You know what voice to use, I couldn't wait another month & risk missing the treble top 😉
Get that sun cream out my Strawberry-blond-with-salt-&-pepper-streaks friend...It's about to turn out nice again 🙂
Thanks for your lovely post Ginge, and look at you 150 days of winning.
Great going and lovely milestone.
OAU my friend.

Hey up Ginge, I've already filled up with petrol & I'm dressed up (jeans (skinny) & a hoody) just awaiting the invite 😉
You sure do have a good memory for an old timer 😉 It always strikes me as weird that sometimes a few words can mean the difference between s**t or bust...I'm chuffed that you liked what I wrote but these 22.57 weeks are all your hard work & don't you forget it!
HD, it sure did turn out nice again & despite Mr Gamble's presence this morning, I, like you, am still moving OAU ODAAT! It don't get better than that - Juuuuuunie
Hey Ginge,
Sorry it took a while to get bk to you. Hope you're well and keeping up the good fight! Of course ya do! Strawberry blondes are made of steel 😀
Am trying to keep on running, but unexpected health problems crossed the path recently, but will b back on the road soon enough 🙂
Keep up the good work, keep winning and reaping the benefits of abstinence! You and yours are sooo worth it!
OAU - day at a time 🙂

All the very best.

Oh Ginger one, what are you doing putting ideas in my head?!? I didn't realise I could actually drive the train :-0 I had to hover like the leeches waiting for 'my' machines for 5 minutes but boy was it worth it 🙂 I'm loud & I'm proud "Please mind the closing doors, MIND THE DOORS!" Ok, I lie but I'm deffo driving (just like real life, I could do with being a bit smoother on the brakes) just doing the other stuff in my head! Plus I'm also telling everyone to keep an eye on their bags as thieves & ne'er do wells operate on the transport systems, not to eat smelly food especially with their mouths open coz they're liable to get my fist in it & to ensure they take their rubbish with them, coz I can do without delays in the tracks 🙂 I so could do this job! Oops, nearly missed my stop :-0
Suffice to say, I am indeed a sight to behold perhaps just not in the way most people would choose to behold sights 😉
Choosing not to lose ODAAT - Juuuuuune
6 months Ginge (I waited patiently for this but you do have an excellent excuse)...Whoop whoop 🙂
If you do run into a BBC, can I suggest you avoid taking advice from young Sandra 😉
Hurdy, gurdy, gurdy, goo - Juuuuunie
Fantastic going Ginge, on 6 months
OAU my friend, ohh HDs indeed ahead.

Hey Ginge,
Awesome transformation and your strength and commitment to recovery is really inspiring!
Hope holiday is going well and you're enjoying every minute of it 🙂
Keep on winning, you got nothing to lose now
Take care and enjoy your new found life

Hi (the ginger one 🙂 ),I
Thanks so much for popping by with your warm message of support.
Here's to another day of it having sure turned out nice again,
OAU we go fellow abstainer to a much brighter and safer future, ( taking one day at a time of course lol)
Take care 200 is getting very near now,
The blondiee one xxxxx
Ginge, there's only 1 place where it is acceptable to sprinkle 100's & 1000's & it ain't toast :-0
Who needs friends when you have Golf Balls like yours...Just like I cannot watch the Money Supermarket advert (Ade in his denim shorts & high heels) without snorting, the Specsavers one (which made me snort a bit anyway) will now have an extra special place in my heart 🙂
Wonderful to hear you had a lovely family holiday...Here's to many more!
OAU ODAAT - Juuuuuune
