thanks for your excellent support guys. . Yes back into swing of grafting after having last week off. . Sad to see curly retire from the diaries tonight but wish him every success in the future. . I suppose we cant hang around these diaries forever. . When i finished tonight though i was invited out on a riverside walk with my ex and bairns. . Thoroughly enjoyed it and what does that cost. . Hee haw 🙂 today i did not bet tomorrow i wont bet. . We can do this folks. .
Just checked the news before replying to your post mate---seems no bodies have been found in a river near you so I take it that the walk with the ex passed without major incident!!!
I think it is great in a way that Curly has moved on as he says he is now content with how he feels. I am sure he will pop in to the diaries in the future.
Hope you are settling back into work this week as it is always difficult after a break, why not drive the train a lot slower until you get used to it again!
All the best

Hi wp,
I'm really glad things are looking up for you. You certainly seem a lot chirpier.
Take care,
Grippa
Hi wp,i'm really pleased for you right now,you seem to be spending a fair bit of quality time with your ex and the bairn.
Thanks for the reply on my diary,like you,i know that for me no gambling at all is the only way i will succeed,if others can control there betting then that is absolutely brilliant for them,and i wish them well,wouldn't work for me though.

Hi wp,
Thanks very much for the post on my diary. I can assure you that you have not lost a friend. I'll still be chipping in on this and other diairies from time to time.
I've said before that i have been totally overwhelmed by the amount of support i have had from you and others since i signed up here. I too feel like i have many new friends and in a perverse way i am glad that something good has come from the reckless gambling that brought me here in the first place.
I've total admiration for every single person on here but i find your story particularly inspiring. You are teaching me a lesson in what can be achieved with total determination.
Keep up the good work wp.
Hi Post,
I'd like to echo what Curly has put in the last post. You are a top fella who is very inspiring. Keep it up mate.
Stay Strong
Steve
Without wishing to jump on the bandwagon, I too take great inspiration and strength from a lot of the people on here, particularly wp.
I dread to think where I would be now without this support.
I think you are a complete pillock and I wish I had never heard from you, oops sorry mate I thought this was the HMRC website for a moment then---actually I think you are an alright bloke.

lads,lads,lads....i was reaching for the tissues there till ole stumps put me in my place :-)...these diaries are for us all and if i can be of any help to someone then al do my best to post some advice....what my point is its YOURSELVES winning the battle not me...lets call it teamwork because we are all fighting this evil together so when one feels low there is always someone (hopefully) on these diaries to pick us up likewise (god forbid me)if someone has a nasty slip...ive swapped on to lates for a few days as the school hols are still on and it gives my step kid a chance to stay in her own place before being shunted off to her grans.....today we took the little one to the park and that made me so happy far far better than the dark days sneaking off to the bookies and beyond...today i did not bet tomorrow i wont bet...we can do this folks
message for the moderators. . Are you really gonna fall for a new diaries utter s h i t e thats been posted tonight. . A quite laughable P i s s take for us all. . Come on ROB mate where are you now. . Surely you can see it. .
Hi wp
Thanks for a really thoughtful post on my diary the other day. I wasnt offended at all - you always put a lot of thought into what you say to people and I appreciate your perspective. As for having a bet I cant say how it will go for me but today I didnt and tomorrow I wont.
I agree on the Kelso point - its a lovely wee low key track and I always loved working there. Really friendly wee place.
Glad you are getting enjoyment from the family time at the mo. Hope it continues.
Also hope you arent too upset by that idiotic diary that appeared. Wee need you here my pal.

Post--how are things mate--hope your train has not been lost in a cloud of Icelandic volcano dust.
thanks eyes. Viggo. Stumper for your posts. . Eyes yes when i read that post i did become disillusioned with the diaries thinking that maybe my personal postings should be kept to myself knowing any idiot can read the diaries and could be made fool of. . Then i thought it was just a one of attention seeker. . Stumper. . Glad you been posting otherwise i was giving you the blame. . Thought you ve gone too far this time lol. . Viggo. . Keep it going mate your doing fantastically well under your own personal circumstances. Today i am going up again to see the kids and see what day holds. I am happy at that.today i wont bet tomorrow i wont bet .we can do this folks. .
