Thanks for your sharing that story John. I have been gamble free from gambling through GA for 10 years and that was a good reminder that I am only 1 bet away from insanity. Guess the old monkey will always be sitting on my shoulder ready to jump, although to be honest I very rarely think about gambling these days. I gave up smoking two years ago and also very rarely think about smoking but every now and again will wake up and think I will have a smoke or sometimes even dream of having one. I treat these odd occassions with the same thought and say I no longer smoke. Say the same for gmbling - I no longer gamble and just work a bit harder with the twelve steps.
Best wishes
