*** 100 DAY CHALLENGE ANNOUNCEMENT ***

Dear GF friends,

One of our number has had a blip and gambled. However, Klamm honestly reported this on his thread, showing us total respect and we fully support you, as you brush yourself down and try again, and this is, I read, what you are going to do! We are human, Klamm and we are on your side and with you all the way, day to day!!! So, no worries - you're back in the saddle and back GF. Good man!!!

(Don't forget there is plenty of support on Gamcare, here on our forums and lots more to help you recognise what went wrong. This is a valuable experience that will help you. You will come back stronger!)

Our 100-day count resets to 0, because the challenge is for us collectively to reach 100 days GF. It's a tough challenge, but, by its very nature, one we are striving towards. Starting today, our target end date is April 11th 2017.

Our individual scores continue to rack up of course. ALL HANDS REMAIN ON THE TILLER. We are NOT distracted.

Let's look at the positives - we reached Day 16. Let's beat this as we try again. There are a lot of us part of the challenge - 34 now! But does that mean we are going to slip again? Let's try our utmost NOT too.

We are with you klamm, and you're very much part of our group.

Ok. We collectively start from 0. THIS time - We CAN and We WILL.

Klamm

Get back on the recovery trail again. Very honest of you and honesty has been something lacking with most of us gamblers.

Bal in for the day x

Hi mixer I also had a blip on the 31st and want to remain honest. I was in a pub and thought last day of 2016 what harm can it do so put my last fiver in. Then thought about this challenge and thought oh no I might have ruined the challenge. Then been thinking about whether to confess or keep it to myself. I haven't gambled since and on day two today . Apologies adam
