    Wow, surfbabe, you've been on the Wii already? Very good. Hypno, how you doing? I watched that trading programme last night, it was fascinating. Part of me thinks well, what did they expect with *complete* beginners - its well known that everyone loses money at first.... still, it was really good stuff.

    Oh, and I'm definitely up for a matched betting challenge!

    I will def be watching the traders programme again......the old guy who wants to make money out of trading in his retirement has certainly got a lot to learn.....he was soooo nonchelant, but if it was his own money at stake I reckon he wouldn't be quite so blaze! And not everyone loses money at first......my first trade ever was on Laura Ashley, back in the day, and I made a whole £30 :rotfl:

    Don't mock it, if every trader had made a £30 profit over the last year we wouldn't be in the poo pile we are now :rolleyes:
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Too true!!

    I spent that £30 on a pair of roller blades, that I never used and ended up selling on at a car boot for a fiver........not such a good return in the end then :rolleyes:

    Been on the bingo scratchcard thread reading. Finally signed up to TAB thought silly not to 35p so far. Noticed several people on thread say that they occasionally play bingo on their free scratchcard sites to stop being shut down I haven't played on my miniver site since right at the beginning to get my cashback. What do folks on here do. Don't really want to play but don't want to lose free scratchcards either:confused:.

    Have a good one

    I cleared all my accounts pre-holiday in the summer and never got back into it again. Starting to get the buzz from finding good matches -it's just frustrating not to have decent float-but time will cure that :)

    Correction
    I *thought* I'd cleared all my accounts
    Checked through them this morning and found £15 in one, £21.88 in another and £30 in a third ! :j

    Me too duchy!

    DT - I haven't played bingo on either of the ones I've got. Every morning I expect to be shut down, but so far I've had £33 from them. Nice money .... I might start doing one game for 10p every week or so, especially the st minver when they give you £1 a week or so....
