Courageous thread you've started Dave , Keep it going and well done , Your friend Bill
Thanks William sorry for the late reply mate. Not sure about courageous, I needed to get it out in the open and talk about it.
Remember when I first mentioned it in a thread a while ago, I realized then that I had a problem.
A couple of months ago I was out fishing and could hardly tie a knot because of my shacking It was then that I knew I had to do something about it, I love trout fishing Bill so if I cant tie a not I cant fish Thanks Buddy
Sounds as if you are making forward steps...well done I have nothing but admiration for you.
Early on you mentioned it was during the day that you thought AA may be more helpful. I believe there may be a daytime meeting in Moe..Is that too far from you?
All the best...... enjoy your photography....looking forward to seeing more of your work..... and.......reading more of your comments/cc .
Moe, Just around the corner la thanks I will look into it.
Gembrook Thats a nice area la. I lived in Mt Evelyn for about 10 years but that was a long time ago, I was shocked the last time that I went through the area I could not believe how much it has changed Still a nice place to live though
Hey Dave,
My admiration and respect to you, as many have already said you have made the first and biggest step ... admitting you have a problem.
My thoughts for you echo what everyone has already said, and said well and thoughtfully.
Best wishes for your difficult journey ... Stay courageous Buddy

We have lived in Gembrook for over 20 years now ...boy has it changed in that time. My husband says as soon as we get a roundabout or traffic lights .....time to move on!
My grandparents lived in 'outback' Africa and said it was time to move on if you could see the smoke from another man's chimney....sounds ideal.
Pleased to hear you still keeping an eye on your goals! Well done!
Cheers Lal
No offence here either, I actually think you add a sense of humour to the posts which I really like
I'm sure you can beat this problem, but you know this place will be here to listen if your having a rotten day
I choose to capture my images with bodies
I share my love using Canon & Sigma

The country rd's that once were are now like major hwys. Still the Yarra Rangers is a nice spot to live and visit, it has a lot to offer for the photographer

Thanks Mike. Been feeling a bit off the couple of days mate.
Good to hear your still batting on .good on ya
I am just wondering how you are going, Dave? Hope things are continuing to improve.
Going camping and estuary fishing for 2 weeks so that will keep me busy, which hopefully will help me cut back on the grog.
Its about time I got out and lived a little instead of festering at home
You are very brave I think.
Good luck in your journey - you can do it !!

Just thought I'd check in and see how you are going. Glad to hear you are off for some fishing time ,,, enjoy! Hope you remembered to take the camera gear just in case you need a photo of the one that didn't get away!
