these comments hit a raw nerve!!! Ouch! Throwing out milk because tomorrow is the "best before" date ..... but it was really about having an excuse to go to the supermarket in the morning.
Speaking of doing things sober for the first time - we are on holiday next week, but it suddenly struck me today that it will be the first AF one I have had for a long time (20 years??). It is "safe" - long way from any retail outlets of any kind! But I am also caught myself mentally checking out where the nearest supplies were. My head is still in a spin over that, but I keep going back to the fact that our destination is in the wop-wops (is this a culturally translatable term??!) and that I would have to be pretty determined to drive 40 minutes to buy a bottle of wine. And I've even got to the point where my concern about carbon emissions would take priority over my desire for wine which is a pretty big step for me!!
