I've hit a couple very recently :thumbsup:

1. Not yet. Smoke in the evenings in the week again but not beating myself over this just yet. Will cut down again.
2a. Yup. Got promoted. Now a Senior Dickhead.
2b. Yup. Got a payrise, 10% so can't be sniffed at, but have gone back and argued for more. Might find out a bit more news on this tomorrow.
3. Yup. She said yes in Bali. Properly chuffed :)

Well done, 3 out of 4. Only the easy one to do!

Thanks folks.

The smoking could have increased dramatically when paying for (and collecting) the engagement ring last night.

Could still happen. Didn't say how many attempts I'd need... :lol:

1. Quit work / retire - might as well put this one in even if it doesn't happen this year..... NOPE
2. Travel more....... but not to weddings. Done waaaay to many of them over the past 3 years. Not bad. Been away a few times. Got back from 12 days in Sri Lanka yesterday.
3. Drink less, or at least not as often and not as heavily, so yeah, less overall. Up and down. Need to get back to it.
4. Get back into shape / lose a bit of weight, see No. 3. Up and down. Was good Jan to April but then injured my Achilles. Needs to get back to it.
5. Possibly move somewhere else...... i'm not sure but I may be starting to get over Dubai. Not sure where to yet but I think I need a new adventure. NOPE
6. Find myself a GF. Possibly. Met a cool chick who lives in Dubai when I was in Sri Lanka and traveled the last 5 days with her. Lets see.
