Everything was going so well! I was going through long periods of abstinence and on the odd occasions when I did have a drink it was never in excess. I even had the audacity to give advice on this forum. It's such a pity that I can't follow my own advice.
We are back in our place in the sun, Lanzarote, and I have been drinking every day since we got here. My worst day was Saturday when I had two bottles of wine, two pints of lager and double vodkas after that ,I don't know how many vodkas. And a pretty bad hangover on Sunday. This is the old me back to how life used to be and I don't like it one little bit.
I am sitting here at 4.30 am full of resolve to get back on the wagon and waiting for daylight so that I can get out walking.
Here we go, day one again.
