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 :)

    • Surely increasing profits are not the reason? It's more about  preventing massive losses? You can't keep things going at vast expense because a few people still use them. We would still be in the stone age. There are always going to be some people who find it hard to use "modern" technology (which has been going for decades). I would have thought the answer was for those people to learn how to do the things they need to do? I'm sure lots of help must be available?  I'm one of the ancient ones, and around the end of the nineties I went on a free course to be taught how to go online and use the internet. It was quite a steep learning curve, but so is learning anything new. So in previous years was learning to use a PC and word processing. So was learning Excel and spreadsheets.  If you need to use something, you have to learn how to do it! Some people may not have the mental  capacity to do this, but in that case surely they will be getting support in other areas of their daily life already? And as regards the possible  closure of the crown post office (note - possible) we don't know what alternative arrangements may be made should this happen, so it seems a bit premature to be protesting about it at this point.
    • Hello, I'm Fran, an award-winning family photographer based in Dulwich, specialising in candid photography for families, children and newborns. My photoshoots are fun, relaxed and unposed, capturing beautiful photos of real family life. My photos have been seen in Vogue and Grazia.  For purchase during the Christmas period only, I have just launched my annual Christmas voucher promotion for a 1 hour family photoshoot at home and 10 edited high-resolution digital photographs for only £250. You can enjoy this to update your family photos next year, or gift it to others.  With £45 off my standard session fee, this is a real bargain. I have issued 5 sessions at this price, and there are only 2 left to buy! Grab yours here! Thanks, Fran
    • Just in case you do get a cheque you can pay it into your Monzo account or similar by taking a photo of the cheque in the app v easily.  I know my bank's app didn't work but that's probably the exception.  I have to say that if and when people gift me money in any form I'm always really appreciative and never get irritated.  But for those that are not tech savvy of whatever age, brain power or other reason, a face to face encounter may be preferable but becoming increasingly impossible so that company profits can be increased. 
    • I'm in my early 40s and I am not sure anyone (aprt from HMRC) has sent me money in cheque form for at least 20 years.  I would be slightly irritated to get a cheque as I would have to find time to pay it in.  I can well imagine a young adult being pretty baffled by a cheque.  Many don't even bank with places that have physical branches.
