Mick Mac Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Thanks Quids - I'm at work - no can do. Moral of the story Michael: After, in this case, backing a Player put in a "Lay" at the odds you choose before you go out and it might, just might, be matched while you are away and your player may not Win. Of course you can put in a "sliding scale2 of Lays. Maybe the first "Lay" to get your stake refunded and proceed from there. You can't do that in a Live Football game with any confidence as the Market is Suspended every time there is a Goal and a New Market is formed, thus cancelling your offererred bet but you can do it in Golf M8.

I backed Laura Robson @ 3/2 First Set today at 9/2 and laid her back at 2/1 ( money back ) and 5/4 after she Won the Set. Could have Won ?160 if she Won and lost ?40 if she didn't but I traded out to guarantee a ?30 Profit. Just as well I did as she lost. Moral of the story, take a guaranteed profit, as nobody ever went skint doing that Guys...

SimonM Wrote: Fair enough I suppose...but I still think watching Rodney win the League Cup Final for them was a bit special! :)) More than special as they were 2/0 down, as I recall. Used to love popping down, spontaneously, to see QPR in the late 1960's/Early 1970's. Rod-nee was The King and a great act, though he did not take too kindly to someone attacking him with a stick at The Old Den during a 1/1 Draw..:)) Ken Bates (for it is he) .....Lovely fella--Wanted to electrocute his own Chelsea Fans with a proposed electric wire...lol Once bumped into some Chelsea Headhunters who broke into his mansion and poured blue dye into his private swimming pool... Life sucks sometimes, eh Kenny...

*Bob* Wrote: Anyway, back to dogwalking. Minimum wage. ?6 tops. After all, you're only walking a bloody dog, aren't you?. Travelling costs, Public Liability Insurance, Tax ( naturally) , small charge built-in for all the times that the Owner cancels, built-in small charge for the occassions where the weather prevents any walking. Advertising costs... ?10 oer hour, irrespective of the breed seems fair to me "bob"... When do you want me to come round M8?B)

Thats "per dog"...I know in The Borough of Greenwich that you are only allowed to walk 4 Dogs per person ( even if you own "5" )...luckily I own "only" 4 !...and I use Avery Hill and Oxleas Woods all the time.

Are any Forumites aware of how prevalent or numerous Professional Dog-Walkers are in your area. Would there be a demand do you think and is that demand being met? Interested to see what the demand is in your area Guys...

Some of us are a 2-Bin Family, don't you jolly well know... Didn't do me any good with the Bin Men recently though... "Sorry, Guv, only allowed to take 1 Bin per household.."...getting more like bleedin' Greenwich every day....you can't do this, you can't do that, you need to have this to be able do that...jokers... Off to the local B and Q's to dump all the excess Black Bags I went. ( for anyone else doing that do NOT leave any items that you can be traced with)...

What can I say, I was born in Acton! 1964/65 QPR V MILLWALL--Rodneeeee Marsh, The Morgan Twins, Millwall taking over both ends of The Terraces and singing "Bollix To Rangers" throughout the game, especially, as per usual away, we lost 3/1. I have to say I don't remember seeing you there barty...B) Following year Rangers Won 6/1 and the Millwall Fans staged a sit-in protest on the pitch DURING the game... Memories ...:))
