Weakness

I suspected as much... my crisis times are when having to kill time waiting for trains. It's not so bad on my little commuter line home each day, but if I have to kill time at a major station I'm in trouble. Waterloo - shame on you - not only do you tempt me with WH Smiths, numerous forms of coffee and chocolaty croissant shops, but you have a Monsoon, an Accessorise and other fab and definitely out of bounds emporia just trying to lure me in.

I've taken to texting friends for moral support at such moments but I think they are getting a bit bored of 'Help! give me a displacement activity to stop me shopping'. Then... I get on the train and a lovely person comes past pushing a trolley of delicious (well only cos I can't have them) comestibles. These people should be charged with dealing - but only after I've been done for possession of a coffee and a shortbread biccy.

I guess I could just stay home for a few weeks.
