Ian (teetotal) has issued me with a challenge. He's said this before and he said it again tonight - since my father was ill and since he died, I've been drinking more than I normally do. Ian has been a friend for teens of years so he's allowed to say such things.
Those bottles represent a fortnight's drinking at Nellybert's and the other picture is Nellydrunk (taken a week ago)
I gave up nicotine 17 months ago and soon afterwards I gave up cannabis, as smoking it with tobacco was the only way I could handle it. I don't miss nicotine or cannabis at all. I'd been a habitual dope smoker for over 20 years and of course the nicotine addiction followed from that. I got fat after I stopped smoking but I've been addressing that. I eat a very healthy diet these days and I walk at least 25 miles a week. But as my good friend Ian pointed out I have replaced smoking with drinking. Hence his challenge. I've accepted it. Teetotal for two weeks and Ian reckons that if I stay off the wne for two weeks I won't resume. We shall see. Here goes.

Thanks. It is also a lovely thought that I have cyber-supporters too.
This is a good challenge. One that you'll be able to do easily. Just watch big brother every night and wot they got up to when their drunk and you will automatically want to abstain from the booze.

What is it about kids that they prefer sober, straight parents? Katy I knew that was you in Norfolk - who else? Delia Smith? Amanda Holden? The Queen? Craig's parents?
Good advice Hannah about BB although I'd like to think I could handle my cups better'n that lot.
Good luck Nellys-if you can give up one thing you give up 'em all!

Youse are all too kind. I'm only giving up getting lushed for a couple of weeks - at least.
