The Horror..........

[David Humphries]

Thought that it would be a good idea to nip in to work a little earlier in the mornings to get my hit.

This was killing two birds with one stone.

Less ear ache from the 'strife' for ruining her evenings and destroying what little adult company she has after a day looking after the nippers, plus TO GET MY FIX, THE HIGH, THE RELIEF, AND TO SLAKE MY UNENDING THIRST FOR ALL THINGS WOODY !!!!!!!!!

BY HECK I'VE GOT IT BAD,

Mr Bullman you are a bad bad man, suppliers like you should be banged up to protect the weak.

 

So imagine my sheer horror, the pain, the withdrawal I felt when I cranked up the Pc this morning to find.............Your access to this site is denied, Web Watcher has blocked access, your internet browsing has triggered this action, you must contact the administrator blah blah blah......

 

It took me three threatening e-mails and a couple of angry.. ....well not quite ,she sounded quite nice on the phone......calls, to argue my need for this product, this manna, this sweet sweet

 

After a couple of sweaty, fingernail bitting cold flushing hours, finaly got my prescription back.

HALLELUJAH, Thank the good shepherd.

 

Take stock fellow Arbs, regulate your useage........or at the very least hide it away from your boss and more importantly,

your other halves. :wave:

Oh dear, you've got it baaaad. There is no cure..... just madness.

[Pete Mctree]

I agree Andy. Lost cause, it's only a matter of time now before he gets " the talk"

[David Humphries]

Not "th th th the talk" I'm rightly fraid now.

I've heard whisperings of it afore.

Thought it was just an Urban Legend

 

Are you guys at liberty to divulge more of this dark secret :wave:

The "talk" is the most feared situation you can find yourself in, to have your addiction exposed to others!! The significant Other Half has no comprehension of this forum, no understanding of why we feel the need to discuss work-related topics all evening. Silence follows, I find the best way is to let them have the greatest gadget ever invented, the TV REMOTE!! Once a bastion of masculinity, this has the effect of silencing the whinging and moaning, at the flick of a button. Channel hopping is power, they get so involved in it that they forget to notice how long you've been here. They contentedly watch Bid TV or whatever, you get to surf!!

[David Humphries]

I think I was pushing the boundaries a tad last night;

Arb talk - Trees on tv - Beer(s) and the only two topics of adult conversation all night were; the logistics of going to Ashridge woods this morning to savour the Beech and Blue Bells plus informing of my intention to do me mates 40th out in Spain later this year..............whoops ! :wave:

[skyhuck]

I found that best counter attack for "the talk":scared: is to agree and surrender.

 

I was given "the talk":scared: and just said yes dear your right, I do spend far to much time on arbtalk, I'll stop going on.For the next 3 days I did not go on, each day she would say "are you not going on?" I would say no your right dear its best if I don't, by day three she was saying "for pity's sake will you just log on! your making me feel so guilty!".

 

Hee,Hee, not had any trouble since :wave:
