Many thanks to Ade for pointing out to me that it's 80 days for me. I'm no Phileas Fogg but 80 days is 80 days, I'm sure Mr Fogg wouldn't begrudge me my moment of glory. have a great night fellow abstainers.....onwards and upwards....Ginger
Hope this great adventure is one that has plenty more days left for you mate, and d**n right you deserve your moment of glory. Don't suppose it was you I ran into drinking champers at the Reform Club this evening? 😉
Keep up the good work, and well done for dealing with your debts positively. I found it easy to get mired in them, but the satisfaction of closing down a card, or reducing an overdraft was always a good feeling.

Hi Ginge,
Thanks for dropping in on my diary.
Glad the Mayo jar and two beers story struck a chord with you. It sure did with me too, and I think that Duncs has it stuck on his fridge as a constant reminder....
Hope you are keeping strong
All the best
Ade

You & Ade game me some food for thought last night but I still can't find the words to explain what is effect my version of your 'ramblings'.
Good to see everyone still winning & thanks for making me smile!

Surely empathy was the top, middle & bottom of your response? No need for anything more, I was only posting so Ade didn't send the boyz around 😉
....did you want onions with that?!......
still only 4 days behind you.....;0)
Just realised you had me running a marathon yesterday & I didn't drop by to say, no flipping way 😉 I'd much rather sit in Suzanne's roller coaster even if I do get rather travel sick :-0
What do you mean you don't consult the good Dr Google? That's sacrilege man! How will you know if you're ever gonna be able to get your head out of whence you last placed it 😉
Keep on being ginger - ODAAT
It's Peroni o'clock old boy!
I'll raise a toast to Ginger and all the Gamcare recoverers (is that even a word?!) and our ongoing recovery!! Cheers....
Pretentious?!? Enough with your fancy words Mr Freud for I am but a CHAV & I do not understand them 🙁
It sounds like you fawt I was insulting you but you said you had your head somewhere which is why you missed my ramblings!
Do I detect a hint of a bromance between you & the Guvnor? I was all for jumping in the jam jar, & collecting you on the way through but since I didn't get a response to by BBQ post I'm not gonna bother because 3's a crowd & all 😉
Is it just CG's that never sleep :-0
I'll drink to that Ade your a gent... as for spelling, i have to spellcheck everything...For instance I can't spell armegeddon..but it's not the end of the world is it...Ginge
