Hi, my names Carol....

[carolfoy]

.... and I'm a disaholic. It all started innocently enough, I'd booked another two week holiday in 'the world' and thought I'd just have a scout around on t'internet to see if there were any tips or info I was missing out on. I'd bought Simons guide (I know, I know, the start of a slippery slope!) and picked up on this website. I lurked for a few months gathering info - how much didn't I know??? there seemed to be no end of useful stuff. It wasn't long before I hit a few buttons and what do you know? I was registered!
I asked a couple of questions, innocently and naively I feel they may have been about pool hopping and refillable mugs - don't laugh, it was all with utmost innocence, How was I to know that 14 months and over 3100 posts later I'd crease up at the thought of asking such stupid things?
Low and behold I got replies - within minutes, what? there are REAL people out there? how odd! I discovered the UK forums, this was when the real problem started, there were people, I mean REAL people who were also doing this! I even started to recognise a few regulars. They were chatting away about all kinds of things, they even seemed really nice! yes, its that old line of 'I want to do what they're doing' ha ha, I know there are many of you who'll be rolling your eyes and thinking, 'that sounds familiar'. you too will suffer withdrawal symptons when your pc needs changing and you can't log on for a few days, wait and see!
Anyway it wasn't long before I asked a couple more things and guess what? 'they' answered! now I'm fourteen months down the line and I can't seem to help myself logging on every morning.
But I can stop anytine I want to, yes, I really can! just as soon as I've posted my opinion on that debate on the US comm board......

I refuse to admit to a addiction, it's just not in my nature to be like this!

I like the Dis but I'm not a Disaholic! really I'm not, I have it all under control I could give it all up tomorrow, just like that (snaps fingers) really I could!




but only if I resorted to drastic measures

Carol I want you to know that I've just snorted some v expensive gran reserva Rioja out of my nose and all over my keyboard!!

I do feel so sorry for you poor addicts - of course I don't spend pointless hours checking flight prices to Orlando for times when I know I can't go anyway. Nor do I continually browse the shelves of Waterstones for any new guides to Central Florida!!

My DH is not in the sitting room right now wondering why its taking me forty minutes to E Mail my sister and the kids don't tell me to shut up aout Disneyland Paris! I could go in denial or just admit that I'm one too.

Excellent Carol
