fella all those things are on offer.
You have to want them more than you want the next punt, the next one is the most important one.
Why??
Because that might be the one where you gamble away all those things.
for me today there is not a stake big enough or odds to tempt me to risk losing.
It is not about the money.
I hope you make the right continued choice

oh the old form guide!! I remember it well,funny because my own form guide should have said this
Great at picking the odd,acca,the odd big win,but will just be used to feed the compulsion.
This runner cannot win because he cannot stop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In black and white any bet how ever much knowledge I have,however great my odds of chance will mean the outcome will be financial gain it will only be a very temporary gift,oh and boy oh boy it will be paid back with great interest!!!
fella robby box wrote on these pages something profoundly true
GAMBLING IS A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME.
fella don't waste your valuable time,spend it with that boy of yours
f**k he is worth more than any punt.
Keep gambling and you might lose him,it happens sadly all to often.
As always I stand by your side

Hi Bear my old friend.
Great to see you back here but sadly i don't like that you have written "helped at least for today" it sounds like a part time effort to give up ? hope i am completely wrong. This is bloody hard i know but you can do it, hope that we can start this journey together. Your friend Dark Place /
