Hi stopnow, cheers for your vote of confidence.
I have now went over a week without gambling.
Wife was working a backshift last night, and after kids were settled in bed, and I had sunk a couple of beers I suddenly had an urge to jump online and plays a few hands or a few spins of roullete.
Purely I think out of habit, as thats what i've done in the past couple of months late fri/sat night after/during a few beers.
I resisted the urge.
I thought seriously about it, and despite having no bank card visa etc, I remembered that my card details were saved in my online account, as previously you only needed to enter the 3 digit code from the back, which I have memorised by now.
So I could have easliy went on and gambled, and seeing as I had just been paid, I had a fair bit sitting there.
I feel much better for not doing it, and I haven't missed the usual fixed odds coupon either this weekend, if anything its meant I can actually enjoy the football, as opposed to willing someone to score/win!!
Onwards & Upwards, I WILL beat this, no rephrase that, I AM beating this.
