Thank's for clearing that up mate I'll have to have a watch as it sound's good .
I was worried I'd have to find my waders out , get up and dig some bait in the morning :(( .
Hi Sarah
Ha I'm loving max and nev
I can't believe iv never watched it, it's crazy that people can go years thinking they are talking to a completely different person I don't know how they don't know,iv just watched one and the fella thought he was in a relationship and was engaged to Katy Perry.
I'm about to drag myself to bed or I will be sat here watching it all night ha,
Good night
Cheer's for the spoiler alert Lee :)) . Anymore you want to tell me the ending of ???????? LOL .
Night Mate !!
Well I can tell you several.. there was the one.....
no no I won’t do it but suffice to say a lot of people think they are talking to pictures like supermodels. Never the case and yet guys will send pic with tops off and abs out. Girls in bikinis but they won’t video chat because they are “shy”.
a lot of the people have body confidence issues and are not supermodels but some are people enjoying keeping these people hooked and then they get a tough time. Show started as nev got catfished. Thought he was talking to a woman. Turned out to be the woman’s mother. They made a documentary about it and that’s how show started.
some are crazy and some are a little ludicrous as lee said. You get the odd one where the people are real and they said they were.
glad it’s a good distraction.
have a great gf day everyone x
Hi lee

sarah
Hi Sarah I'm good thanks,still engrossed in catfish I'm up to season 4 already ha,laylas in respite this weekend she goes about 1 once a month and she's there till Monday so iv got the twins staying with me this weekend.
How has your day been
Hi lee
stayed at mum and dads last night to help care for dad. Then work. Then back here now. Looking after dad all day tomorrow then hopefully home Sunday early to have a chill out day and housework. Positives will be busy Sunday. Negatives if dad has a quiet day Saturday temptation to be bored. Hope you have a fab weekend with your boys.
Yeah tomorrow will be a big test for you but you've done amazing so far so I know you can do it.
I'm just off to bed the boys have had me up the wall and worn me out I'm sitting on the couch half asleep ha.
I will check in with you tomorrow I know it could be a tough day for you.
Night Sarah x
Hi Lee
Hope you’re well and I hope Layla is doing well?
Pay day has been and gone and I am still gamble free. At this moment I am not tempted although I take nothing for granted. I am trying to keep busy in the evenings I’m not log on to anything and therefore not see advertisements or emails even though I’m signed up to GameStop.
I hope your weekend with the boys was good and I hope you had a lovely time and got to spend some quality time with them.
How are you doing and are you still gamble free let me know.
How are you doing and are you still gamble free let me know.

Hi Sarah
I'm good thanks, iv only been on here a couple of times the last few days but iv not been talking and mainly just reading people's threads. Yes I'm still gamble free and not been tempted at all which has really surprised me but like you I'm not taking anything for granted.
Yeah I had a good weekend with the boys and layla had a nice time at respite.
That's great that you got through pay day and have still not been tempted, its pay day for me tomorrow, it was my last pay last month that I last gambled and blew about 500 quid in minutes, I know I won't this month but I'm spending the day with my mum just as another barrier for me to not do anything,
That's wise that your trying to keep busy of an evening and not logging onto anything, is your dad OK after his bad day on saturday
Hi lee
dad has had a quiet week bless him. Glad Layla had a good weekend. I think great idea to spend time with your mum. Maybe treat yourself to something so no money to spend. As you have been clever enough to not get in to debt enjoy your abstainance.
What can you get. Mmmmm what about a good box set?

Hi Sarah
Payday has been with no problems, I do have some debts I have 3 payday loans but today I have paid £150 off one of them and that one is nearly paid off now,paying that much in one go is something I never would have done while I was gambling, even when I had a big win I still wouldn't pay anything extra off my debts cos I'd always want as much gambling money available as possible, I used to always think when can I get a top up on my loans but now I'm pretty confident that I will be able to get rid of them completely in the next year or so.
Hope you've had a good day
Hi lee
how are you doing?

hi Smartie
it's not quite 45 days last Friday I had a bit of a slip. It's the fobts I play and for over a month I hadn't had any urges at all but I was out shopping and I don't know why but I went into the bookies.
I put £10 in and quickly lost that and with me when I lose any amount even a couple of pound I won't stop until I at least get it back or lose everything. I ended up putting £60 in but luckily got up to £90 So was able to walk out but I felt really horrible even betting again so I gave the £30 winnings to my sister because I just didn't want it so hopefully that was a good sign that I can stay away and iv had no urges at all since then so just have to take it 1 day at a time.
I just seen on your thread you've gone over 6 years,that's brilliant mate well done.
Yeah the fobts are very much my kryptonite, iv never had a problem online and never bet on horses or anything its just when I'm in front of them machines something takes over and I did not know what I'm doing.
Even this new £2 limit they have found a way round by letting you bet up to £30 on the roulette board but having to win a £2 gamble first so they hook you in by in theory being able to win £500 off a £2 bet but you can still and I have done lose hundreds on them in minutes, so even though its sad that people are losing their jobs I'm glad to hear about these bookies closures and hopefully there's many more to come.
I have self excluded myself from a few close by and am looking into a nationwide one.
What was it that you used to bet on
