OAU Ginger

Hey Ginge...I know you're not posting these days but I keep telling everyone Onwards & Upwards & the saying always makes me think of you my friend!

I do hope recovery is treating you well...proper fish & Evian all the way 🙂

Onwards & upwards ODAAT - Juuuuuune

Yay, welcome back Ginge, I've missed you...I was just thinking this morning about how it sure turned out nice again - HD 🙂

Absolutely chuffed to hear you've been here all the time, still marching onwards & upwards & sincerely hope that Mrs Ginge has recovered from her fright without too many scars!

Have a wonderful trip to the seaside & have a sand angel on me - Juuuuuune

Hey Ginge,

I guessed you would be reading in the background and am pleased to know you were.

Well done on your continuing abstinence, and enjoy your time at the seaside Ohh HDs indeed.

Onwards and upwards my friend and it will surely keep turning out nice.

Hi Abstainers

thanks so much ODAAT, (Juuune), Suzanne, (blondie) and NT for your kind words.

had a lovely weekend with no thoughts of wasting single penny punting, Sunday was egg hunt on the golf course at the holiday park we stayed, over 300 cream eggs scattered over a nine hole course The family Ginge found ONE, i was getting slightly irate at the actions of some of the families who didn't understand the 'spirit ' of the exercise, adults who when they found a clutch of eggs instead of taking one and moving on they took the lot...so you had grown (pillocks) with over a dozen eggs in their baskets and nippers running around upset because they couldn't find ONE!!!....Ginge wasn't a happy Bunny that morning.

and oh yes Suzanne i was checking in regularly because I've said many times before that the secret to my success is the help and support from my friends on here, and i was always gonna be there for the big milestones coming up I wouldn't miss them for anything because I personally feel that the help and support from fellow ex gamblers is more beneficial to me than any sessions of therapy with someone who's never placed a bet.... please keep traveling..onwards and upwards my friends and have a lovely spring evening...Ginge

Hi Ginge,

Do miss your dry and witty sense of humour on here, but I know you are always there,

How greedy taking the bunch of cream eggs, and not sharing Ohh HD indeed.

So glad it turned out nice again for you,

Take care my friend and keep going onwards and upwards

Hey Ginge, thanks for the continued support & a very timely reminder (I'll explain on my diary later)! Loved your support of Sandra especially the puzzle line...Genius 🙂

Hopefully you've recovered from not being able to find any eggs @ the weekend 😉

Don't leave us again, we need you here!

HD, it sure turned out nice again 🙂

Forever onwards - ODAAT

Hey Ginge,

You must remember the once a week baths and ohh sharing the bath water with siblings ( if any) ohh HD indeed, but we as kids did not give an IOTA did we, we or our parents lol, didn't know any thing else, it was the norm,

So pleased it has turned out nice again, in more ways than one

Onwards and upwards keeping one step ahead is the sure way for it to keep turning out nice.

Good morning my old friend

Great to see your still kicking it in the teeth 🙂 so you navigated your way past cheltenham then ? Im hoping to be here a little more often now. Catch you soon, Dark Place.

Hi Ginge,

Just a nudge to say have a lovely Sunday and keep winning! Slowly slowly catchy monkey 🙂

Embrace recovery!

Sandra

Hey up Ginge, thanks for dropping by 🙂 I'm pretty sure they don't refer to me as Carmen down @ the club (it's all I can do to keep my hair on my head) although to be fair some of them are old enough to remember her!

I hate to state the obvious but you're such a boy...Of course you needed that bath once a week 😉 Now, correct me if I'm wrong...Is seafood tea, fish fingers? If not, please explain & whilst you're @ it, what is Sunday cake?

Keep winning ODAAT - Juuuuuune

Well it's no flipping wonder you got a taste for the finer things in life (plaice) with that upbringing...Not sure real seafood would have been quite so well received in the ODAAT household! Fish fingers indeed...What was I thinking ;-(

We used to have strawberries & cream (with sugar) @ my Nan's on a Saturday (our bath night) followed, I recall, by Knight Rider, the A team & the Dukes of Hazard (boy them were the days)! That is until I ruined it...By deciding the strawberries ruined my cream (with sugar) one night! Mum got to clean that mess up & I don't think I had a bath for the next fortnight 🙁

As for Mrs Ginge's order...Seemed it did fit after all so what you moaning about 😉

OAU indeed - ODAAT - Juuuuuune

Aggrrrrrr!!! Lol..just posted my lovely story and Internet gone down..twice..breathe lol....me not angry..but cmon!!

Ok..take three 😉

Thank you for your lovely post and support on my diary.
Simple things in life are the most important ones and guess what..surprise surprise lol, - they're for free!!!!

So good to see you marching on and winning every single day. Embrace recovery, it will never stops giving and you my dear friend are worth all the good things in this life.sharing the freedom with your loved ones is priceless!

Keep on keeping on and be kind to yourself

Sandra ☺
