alf , stay with us . Your car can't stop on it's own. You can do this. I would also suggest you start a thread of your own or stay right here .

Hi All, I'm in for a sober three-day weekend. I took today off (most Americans actually had to go back to work today although how many of them are actually doing work is questionable ).

It is hot as heck in Philly today. Got up early this morning---which would have never happened on July 5ths past---and looked around my two neighbors' yards. Empties everywhere and one poor guy laying in the sun trying to sweat it out while moaning in agony. Got me thinking, "We really ARE poisoning ourselves with drugs and alcohol...why would anyone want to be in agony like that after what is supposed to be a fun party?" Reminded me of looking like that far too many times (like every day in the end) and how I never, ever want to look/feel like that again.

Hang in the alf044, and mecanix's suggestion is a good one about leaving the money and cards behind if you can. I used to do that too. Only carried my license and would let friends hold the rest.

Alright, let's do this! See you all around here later and thanks, Ricky, for starting the thread!

Hi everyone, I am ready to make this a sober weekend. Slipped up the past 2 Saturdays ( after having 48 days). On Day 6 and do not want to start over, again. Made it through the 4th and now need to make it through the weekend. Let's help each other do this, please!

Hey Ricky,
Thanks for hosting / starting the thread this week

Have had the new shocks deliverd today , already have new mounts , need to get the air con emptied so i can put a new condencer rad and drier in , then get it tested and charged .

Am waiting for anti-roll bar bushes to be deliverd .

Have just got DAB and i-pod sterio to install as well .

All in all a busy weekend planned , i think i might leave the mechanix till next week and just do the sounds this weekend .

So sunny here it seems a shame to be under a car as i'm sure i'll see more things i need to do once i get there .

Day 671 and no plans to drink

Bestwishes, m
