I can't help it, I love books, mainly old books but any nice book that I would like to read will seduce me 8O

Lately I have been buying books and boardgames online at a great wee outfit in Auckland.

I suspect I am developing a compulsive/addictive habit :oops:

It's too easy and the anticipation lasts so long between committing to the purchase and taking delivery of the goods.

The only drawback is the absence of the sensual component a good second hand book shop offers.

Oh well no-one gets hurt and I still eat properly and pay my bills.

peace j

Honestly, if you can go cold turkey for awhile it will help.

If you get habituated to the high, you'll need more and more to feel the same--and then it does get expensive.

One month on, one month off.
