Am I allowed to announce another big winning bet without you getting disappointed again... :))


Backed McIlroy a 10s and Dustin Johnson at 24 at start of the St Jude. With 3 holes to go they were first and second fav, Johnson won and an overall profit of ?150 on the two bets.


It seems to be never ending. What will I do with all the money. I might buy a hedge trimmer, to cut down all the hedgies in the local area.

Still got Italy, Russia and Torres as top goal score all now in trading territory. I also have put a bet on Holland tonight at 34s and hedged it with laying them against Portugal. If they lose nothing lost if they win they'll plummet down again in my opinion ready for a trade....don't worry Mick I'll explain it all to you one day


Plus, in the Golf - Donald, Laird and Hansen and,er, Watney.

Really - there is no need. I understand Trading - Its when Quids looks like he is going to win a bet for once, and he decides to give the bookies back half of the winnings. Trading is a bookie's dream.

Just watched the wonder from down under Black Caviar. Job done but only just.


Probably not the best ground for her and a long trip to the UK is going to take a fair bit out of the horse.


The Aussie jockey is taking it very badly, really feel for him. In the end he tried not to be too hard on the horse, and nearly messed up, but it still won.



The end of the BBC coverage of Ascot is sad. Not massively keen on Claire Balding, but I do like the fun she has with Willie Carson, and I think the BBC deserves some racing.

A mixture of Football, a massive night on Tuesday :)-D and being in Ireland meant I saw very little of Ascot and no bets but I did see Frankel on the news, absolutely awesome.


Layed off Torres for Top scorer for a very small profit or a bit bigger one if he gets it (unlikely); Just holding Italy as winners (compensation if they beat us) and have reduced my risk on Laying Spain by backing them at half time tonight...but will still be in the red if they win. Also layed any hatrick at 1.32 or something as that seemed worth a shout for a minimum risk. er sorry edited to say layed No hatrick at 1.32 :)

Using my poker Forum I did Webb Simpson to win at the US event this week at 21. Forgot completley until about 8pm tonight went on BBC and he was leader by 3 and avaialable at 1.5///so, I layed for a 60%/40% win either way (60 for the win). He's now 5th, one over for today and having a nightmare...oh I love a lay...



ps thinking about only betting on golf given my form recently :)

    • Since you’re clearly not experiencing what we are I’m not sure I agree with any of your points. I also asked for anyone else having a similar problem… it’s absolutely fine if you’re not but I’d appreciate less of the “go live your life”. There is no need to comment with that tone, it doesn’t provide us with any help for the matter. Nor is it polite. We’re a very kind family simply not wanting damage and don’t find the actions necessary. It’s been the same driver/delivery for a while and this never used to happen. I wouldn’t post this on the forum if it wasn’t getting so frustrating. Again, the kids and myself have kindly asked for this to stop a few times with no success. We all work hard for our living and would never want (nor are we trying) to rid someone of their livelihood. But similarly, I don’t find it fair. Please feel free to PM me if anyone has any advise or shares the same.  
    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who, by moving to your position on the right, are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand).
