Full to Bursting

[nsd_user663_59305]

Well, that's the works xmas lunch over and done with, and nary a wish of a fag was had! I even went outside to cool down at one stage and didn't even feel jealous about the smokers huddled in the shelter. All I was interested in was how soon I could escape to get home, put my feet up and undo the old top button pic4ever.com/images/Laie_52...

Nah, it was really quite boring - we all wanted an evening party but scrooge insisted on an afternoon thing

I always drive too, luckily I don't have to deal with country lanes anymore but I still would hate to be "that" driver who hurt someone just because they fancied a glass of wine :mad: I also had to cook blokies dinner, he was working a 12 hour shift and I felt mean making him have a takeaway when I had some perfectly good bangers to make a toad with

[nsd_user663_59305]

Oh no you fed him toad hope you didnt lick it first x

Duh - yep :rolleyes:

[nsd_user663_59305]

Bless you I don't drive it, because I don't drive! And winding roads when one is a passenger, in the back, having had a few is NOT good!

Wish I'd had toad in the hole for tea - proper cold weather comfort food - YUM!

I am the worlds worst passenger after a few and I couldn't eat my dinner, I was still too full sob sob

That's so good Jennine, I'm so glad for you!!

Having a nice time *without* wanting a fag, that is flipping excellent!!

My work do is next week and I'd kill not to go out to the smoking shelter.

But, next year I'll be the same as you

(last year I hid, lol)

Know I've got a bit of a reputation on here, but am paranoid about not drink-driving, i agree with you 'cos it would be awful to hurt someone because I'd had a glass or two :eek:

pic4ever.com/images/626gdau... :DWell there's my early Christmas pressie! I log on and here you are!

Welcome back Gemma pic4ever.com/images/47b20s0...

Like you, I really do enjoy a large glass of wine, or four (gulp, I'm on the wrong forum) but there is no way I would risk others lives or my licence for that one glass. I am lucky enough that I can walk to work, ok it takes me an hour but that's suitable punishment for not controlling my urges. I was so stuffed yesterday all I wanted was water A Friday night without wine, what is the world coming to pic4ever.com/images/shame.gif

It is great when we beat these 'trigger' situations. I always thought I couldn't enjoy myself without a smoke:o, how daft was I. Love how we are all enjoying our do's

[nsd_user663_59642]

I'm so glad it went well, Jenn.....yet another battle won in this war against fags, plus your early Christmas present, too, of course! Strictly tonight as well.....you're on a roll here, Jenn, and very well deserved it is!

Amazing isn't it? One thing I personally really, really took pleasure in was the fact that, firstly, I didn't miss any banter by being outside on my own, in the cold and rain and secondly, I didn't have to hold my breath and not join in the conversation as I stank like an ashtray These benefits just keep piling up, just like pressies under the tree :D:D
