So day 15. That vaguely half way point. I think I may just have lost a little weight by not drinking. Which is one of those unexpected outcomes because I am sure I am eating more cake than usual. So being sober isn't really saving me any money yet but soon when I return to my wicked ways I will need to drink less because I'll have no tolerance which will be fun.

At the conference I even met a few more go Sober victims so we huddled together…
This post will be short, I'm getting up at 5am to go to the Cancer Voices Conference at Gatwick. I am already so tired I had to count how many days into this issue am. The 3rd of the month would suggest the 3rd day Aphra!
I am looking forward to the conference. It's a great chance to meet the wider Macmillan Community and to find out other people's hints and tips for life from around the country. It also will be…
