I would say once you start your job (well done getting that by the way) but it doesn't stop me coming on.

There is no point in fighting it - just give in and accept that you are addicted and from now on will live your life only through the comings and goings of the Forum.

The only cure is cold turkey and a 12 step programme to stop you logging on ever again.

Step 1 - either smash your computer or live in a house with no electricity?

no chance - I've been back in the UK 10 weeks now and I'm still here!!!

JaneRay, I'm on a 10 min time limit today....I say this every day and it rarely works. Or I say "I'll just read, and not reply" but that rarely works either!

Besides, it's probably taken me more than 10 mins to read the overnight updates of the 'EGO' post!!!
