Yeah, right - like we all believe that :wink: ! Once C.U.P.S. is contracted, there is absolutely no cure - you just keep on buying magic! Trust and believe me, I'm just like a Doctor :shock: .

A good sign of C.U.P.S is when your Post office collection depot for missed deliveries knows you by name and knows you practice magic.

I am that man :oops: Ooooh the shame

OK, another DEAD giveaway sign is that you have bookmarked at least 5 magic websites ready to find the best price, fastest delivery and 'in stock' status.

And you know the CVS number of your credit card off-by-heart.

Tell me about it! I mean, I have Brown's Pure Effect and Absolute Magic on loan from the library. i pop in every few weeks and renew them. Why then have I just spent 70 quid on them when what I really need is a 40 quid portable air conditioner? answer: Because it was free postage!

I'm emotional touched to know that I'm not alone in this debilitating illness. And NUMS is making it worse :wink: :wink:

They might as well just rename this board CUPS Sufferers Anonymous! Everybody on here is suffering from CUPS and theres no point in denying it because if you do we will know that you are just in denial, as Larry said!

Personally, my magic budget is bigger than my food budget....but only just.

I was born with Multiple Personality Disorder. Luckily, they are all me, they just dont always get along...

Yup. Turns out you can't live on tea and biscuits alone :cry:

The only section of the forum with more views than Reviews is Support and Tips!

EDIT: In fact, when you think about it, we make the perfect consumers. Hmmm.... Don't tell Tesco!
