I Too am in this mess because of online gambling, lost a fortune over 5 years. I think the pushing of these sites on the Internet should be banned and regulated. It is really difficult to stop when you are being bombarded all the time. Even Orange my mobile phone provider push Jackpot joy. at least not being able to afford to gamble gets it out of your system! Good Luck, keep strong and focused and dont go on the computer when bored!![:X]
I'm glad you have managed to sort yourself out Vanessa. I agree that there is far too much temptation on the internet and on TV. It doesn't help either when some places have free bingo days!
Nothing is free - you'll probably find that by the end of the free day a lot of people are hooked.

There are too many adverts for gambling now, but to be honest I'm not anti-gambling, providing it's done responsibly with money you can afford, and not using credit. I know Dave does some online gambling now and then and I don't have a problem with it, and I certainly didn't have a problem when he had a big win a few years ago!
