Title: Getting that cold turkey feeling already!! Post by: Triple X on December 21, 2005, 02:43:22 PM Tomorrow morning i go on holiday with my family for 12 nights - and the laptop is staying at home!!
This will be the longest i have gone without playing poker for 18 months. In the summer i did take the computer on hols so that was not so bad Just thinking about it is making very shaky!!! All is not lost as i have taken cards and some chips so the hotel guests had better be up for it!! Anyone else going cold turkey during the Xmas period?? In the meantime Happy Christmas / Happy Hanukah to all Blondeites and hope you all have a great new year. Been good fun being part of this forum and whilst i have been on the periphery and not been able to give as much time as some it has still been a great laugh. Special thanks to Tikay, Ironside and all the mods for putting in the hours and for making this such an excellent forum. Title: Re: Getting that cold turkey feeling already!!

Have a great holiday, and recharge those batteries.... Title: Re: Getting that cold turkey feeling already!! Post by: Triple X on December 21, 2005, 02:53:37 PM Thanks Tikay - my summer hols were spent on a certain boat so you can imagine that there was no getting away from the poker during that break!!!
This however will be a real test of how long i can live without poker... Title: Re: Getting that cold turkey feeling already!! Post by: Robert HM on December 21, 2005, 06:13:57 PM I'm going to friends of mine for Christmas Eve and returning to them on Christmas Day, great setting, a farm seemingly in the middle of nowhere but still within the M25 circle. They have no poker software in their PC and I will be leaving my chips at home. Will I get cold turkey?, nah, I bought them a poker set for Christmas and as they follow their German tradition they open the gifts on Christmas Eve, Yippee.

I nearly attempted to learn the language but the motivation was lacking. |
