no win situation

Hi All

Up bright and early getting ready for golf.Lovely day for it.Stroke play today so i have a little bit more of a chance.though feel i would be hard pushed to make the top 3 but never say never eh.

Reading through the diaries it sounds like a few of us are going golfing today.

We may have to have a gamcare open one day.Curley you cant come in it.Its for amateurs only lol.

As i have said i will miss the football but hopefully i will be joining in the celebrations later (any excuse for a beer).

Ive booked tomorrow off work.meeting up with 30 of your mates for golf and going back to the pub when England have played could end up getting a bit messy.Yeah i think i will have a hangover.All the best Jeff .

CMON ENGLAND.

Hi Jeff. Just popped in to see how you're doing. It seems life is good for you. Enjoy your golf and the rest of your day. God Bless Sabine. x

Hiya Jeff

Thanks for your post on my diary, i know i have not posted too much on yours, but its great to read how well you are doing..

Hope you have enjoyed your golf, as for the footie, depressing, depressing and depressing...That goal should have been allowed then who knows what may have happened!

Anyway enough of that...I wish you all the very best in your recovery, DT used to mention you back in october... Wander how he is doing..

Take care mate, hope you have good gamble free week. ands

ps, have a large jd for me, lol!

Hi All

Ive not posted for a week.I had read a lot of diaries ,but im not getting home from work till late.

Im have been reading a lot of new diaries this week and im really feeling for those new members struggling.

Those first few weeks stick in my mind ,and i want them to stay as fresh as possible.They were dark days,but with that experience it keeps me from going back.Those people who have followed my diary know i lost everything except the most important thing.My family (although i did lose a previous missus and daughter in my early days).

Money will come and go while you are gambling.But it definatley stays around longer when you dont.

I am 9 months free today and i feel i wont ever go back.My life isnt perfect but its a lot better now i dont gamble.

I think the two sayings i can relate to most are I cannot win because i cannot stop and nothing changes if nothing changes.

Both are so true.

By the way fellow golfers ,i think i need to put in some serious practice.I played diobolical last week finishing 12th of 18.Hey but what a lovley course.Thank you all for your continued support .All the best Jeff.

Hi Jeff,congratulations on reaching 9 months bet free....,another great milestone for you!!!,you are spot on mate,when i read the newer diaries it always makes me look back to my own "day one",and i am always willing those people to stick at it,as a few of us now know things do get better in time.

Seano.

Smashing Jeff,

9 months is great,i often have a read of your diary and its warming to see that it doesnt matter what stage of our lives were at,ALL of us can make a change.

I appreciate your comments on my diary,i REALLY must try and keep up with replys to others but i think i get too wrapped up in spouting my own propoganda,LOL,still what the hell,i reckon i get things half right and that will do me,

Anyway keep doing what your doing Jeff,your a cracking fella.

Regards,

"" A NEW LIFE ""

Well done on 9 months Jeff. Super stuff.

I don't mind admitting that you are one of my heroes Jeff. The others are Duncan Ferguson and Homer Simpson so do not get too emotional mate!

12th of 18 mate. What has happened to the all conquering order or merit winner from last summer? Have they adjusted your handicap Jeff?

Enjoy the rest of your weekend mate.

Hi Jeff,

Well done on 7 months mate. Sounds like my cr** golfing is contagious lol. Only kidding mate, remember form is temporary, class is permanent!!

Stay Strong

Steve

Thanks for post Jeff.

I dont think Man City are any value to win the Prem at around the 5/1 mark. Can they win it - today I would say No, but depends if they sign some superstars who can actually adapt to the English game before the start of the new season mate.

Don't know if "CITEH" can win the premiere Jeff,i do know that they haved signed a very good left back though :).......,on the other hand it saddens me that they are paying Yaya Toure £200,000 a week,the games gone mad!!!.

Seano.

Hi Jeff,

I fear that City will have no chance of winning the league next season mate. Unfortunately they seem to be repeating the same trick as last summer by paying ridiculous transfer fees and wages for players that are a little short of top class.

I see Arteta is rumoured to be on Mancini's***t list for £25 million.

A little part of me will die inside if this happens.

9 months jeff mate.,. Whooos the daaadddy lol 🙂 as curly said heroic stuff well done your input is inspirational that its difficult to talk gambling on your diary any more.,best wishes we can do this 😉

Glad to see that gambling plays no part in your life anymore.

GAMBLING--Got Any Money Because Losing Is Never Good

All the best

Hi Jeff,

Just wanted to say thanks for your support, was going to post yesterday but you not wrote anything on your own, so I didn't know what to say. Anyways thanks you are a star and hope you are ok.

Take care,

Thank you as always for the posts on my diary Freda,Stumper,Captain,wp,Curley,Seano,Yorkie and Anl.

Ive not had a lot of time on my hands this week,so even though i have not posted i have still read your diaries.I will post to you all this week.

Really no time for me to have any gambling thoughts at the moment.Im glad to see all the mentioned are still going strong.On Sunday i was walking past our local bookies and an old friend called me over.He said he hadnt seen me in the bookies for a whileand i told him i had packed it all in .He said he wished he could.I replied whats stopping you? He shrugged his shoulders.I presumed he wasnt Quite ready yet.His time will come.Anyway stay strong all .All the best Jeff.
