I will be the one on orange juice :cry:

Of course I will also be the one with a photographic memory of everything that goes on during the evening :wink:
There's no doubt alcohol leads to giving into temptations for whatever weakness one has. I tend to indulge in the wrong things after drinking and have been cutting back to one or two but no more as well. I had planned on doing Octsober (all of October alcohol free) but haven't been as disciplined as I should have been.

I will tell you no. Promise. You're not far enough along to be able to have the odd one. In fact, I'll go march down the road and have one and come back.

Yep, it's coming. I'll put up a list as per normal, maybe the end of the week, so we can keep Saint up to date. :cool:

You are all booked in for Friday 22nd. I'll be there but probably not late as Mrs S is now 14 weeks pregnant with our twins so by 9pm I'm normally running around trying to find her craving supper!

I'd say that would be perfectly understandable! You tell her to take care and you take care of her!
