"You know what, Susie, I think I might do a Dry February. Maybe I should see if people will throw money towards a charitable cause while I'm at it."

Stupid bloody idea if you ask me, but I just had to go and put it out there didn't I? And then people went and nominated charities (12 in all) and The National Autistic Society were pulled out of the hat.

I'm half way through the month now, and so it's over to you. Help me to see the month through without the deep joy of a cold pint of beer or the wine-induced seratonin fuelled euphoria. Go forth, dear reader, and donate!

Oh, and you'll also be helping people with autism and their families. That's pretty cool too. Hell, why wouldn't you donate?!
