Tell me about it. My main problem is that I have got my daughter (nearly 12) on to the Young Persons Adelaide Brits site and we are fighting for the 'puter the whole time - the sooner she goes back to school the better

Unfortunately there is also no known cure for this addiction. No 12 step programme and no alternative but to keep posting.

Ah well I'm now resigned to staying here forever and ever and ever...

A few weeks ago, my husband came into the study and put his wedding ring on top of the PC and said, 'you spend more bloody time with BE then you do with me'. I got the message and am trying to cut down, really I am. Ive fallen off the waggon a few times though!

Just to change the subject, what did you think of Sir Bobby Robson being sacked and who do you think will get the job? (I'm a Mags fan myself)

For me, logging on this site is priority.

You start to get quite attached to people and get excited when you get private messages.

Its quite easy to stay logged on all day.

Oh dear, I shall say it.

My names Sam and Im addicted to Expats :scared:

Hmmm.
I think I would rather my daughter was addicted to this site than some of the other stuff she gets up to!
Anyone know if here is there a "Young Persons Brisbane Site" equivalent??

Solution: Each of our kids has their own PC ...LOL (and we have 4!)
I check BE so often throughout the day it's not even funny anymore... BUT... Mr. Siren is just as bad! Hahahah
