Hi all

Another weekend is here and another gamble free one we shall have with our loved ones, so much to spend your money on other things rather then waste it.

Which brings me to a quote from the great late George Best, “I spent all my money on fast cars, champagne, women and gambling, the rest I squandered”.

I've spent my 54 days money wisely, I bought brand new carpets, the expensive kind with thick underlay, expensive curtains, the money spent on one pair 2 months ago I would have made do or bought 4 pairs for that!

I've got a beautiful home, thanks to you and Allen Carr and this forum.

I don't want to gamble ever again. Certainly can't now for 5 yrs which is a blessing online.

It’s cold, rainy and dreary outside but nothing can beat that feeling of staying gamble free.

You’re doing excellent. Don’t get complacent. Keep pushing forward. Keep the faith. 14 weeks is superb. You’re inspiring me to be a better person. Your post the other day out the blue gave me a massive nudge so thank you.

Hi change

If we can help one another through this journey then we all become stronger and it is a journey, highs and lows but we shouldn’t lose focus of the message :-

1. Gambling is a con.

2. Don’t place that first bet.

3. Never question your decision to stop gambling.

Hiya lovely..
This moving to a new place means my broadband connection is fitted 29th December so I'm day 57 and happy. I was at my sisters on Saturday she was stuck to a slot game and I never looked, heard the tune but narr not interested. I didn't ask her what the game was. She knows I have banned myself for 5 yrs. My choice.

So.. Well done to you. And next time I am in a WiFi hot-spot I will log in.

Keep smiling and chat soon.
Bella xx

Another day and first major day count is reached. Thanks again for your post. Always gives you a little lift when you come on here and there’s a response. I’ve been failing to quit for way to long. Gearing up for a great 2019 and you’re well on the way. Keep the faith.

Hi guys

Thanks for the messages, 100 days but we must keep going as it’s just a number. What a fantastic start to the new year we will be having. Keep going no matter what life throws at you, that is the key as returning to gambling will only make things 10 times harder.

Shaun
