    Good morning Shaun, Hypno and all. We may be stuck at home and not whizzing down the slopes but it is still a beautiful morning and may it continue to be so. This is my last day of freedom before I go back to work tomorrow so I shall make the most of it. Have a good day everyone, and if Martin Lewis is out there - love the ears and teeth!

    Hi Hypno! Thats great that you've had a good ski already - keep going!

    savingmore - matched betting works because the marketing sections of the betting companies have worked out that if they give people free money to bet with, some of those people will start to bet regularly, and thats where their profits will come from. Matched betting exploits a loophole, just like "free daily scratchcards" or clickthroughs, or anything else. I'd advise you to print out the introductory thread, and read it through. Make notes, underlinings, whatever you need. Ask questions. Download the matcher, the little piece of software that shows you how much you need to bet each time to make a profit. Ask questions. Do some trial runs, and do it on the thread for newbies questions each time - the experienced people are extremely generous to newcomers, even if a little cantankerous sometimes..... there's a lot of money to be made, truly.

    oh THANKS so much Karmacat: that is so useful, will think i will do lots of research and trial runs as you suggest, I have been so impressed with how much benben has made and others that i think i must give it a go!

    Hypno: glad you arrived safely and have skied...:T:beer:

    bonjour!!!!!

    just nipped on to check online banking....no free internet access so have to ration myself big time, but need to keep check on the finances....

    Lots of skiing done, and the kids have managed to get their fix of racing too so all is well there. Everything is far more expensive though than last year, which is really noticeable. GAH!!!

    Hope you are all well xxx
