My smokefree night

I managed not to smoke last night. I went to a charity quiz night and drank a fair amount. Normally that means I smoke like a chimney. Not only did we win the quiz, but I said no when offered a cig. That makes me the winner of the night.

This morning was tough too. Normally my hangover cure is a cuppa and a smoke. Instead I dragged my sister out for a croque madame.

Now I'm back home and relaxing before birthday fun tomorrow

Oh and the picture is of the most green place I've ever been. It's in Hibernian Football Club Supporters Club. The greenness amused me no end.

Hey Ellie, great going girl! I went to a quiz last night but we only came third. :( Are you a bit of a quizzer on the quiet? Apparently the winning team are always quizzing and always win this particular one - perhaps they should have given the prize to the team that came second! :|

It's not something I ever normally do. My secret weapon was having some journalists on my team. Those guys read papers and news sites for hours. Nothing gets past them.

We gave our winnings back. The night was raising money for Maggie's Centre so they needed the money more than we did.
