    OK, tried again and it came out the same - £9.17 - weird!! I have no idea why it was wrong last time!!

    But I read on the post that you should only lose about a pound in £25 - what sort of odds are you looking for to get that??
    I've got my own flat :j:j

    Now I have to pay the bills :eek:

    And feed my interiors addiction ;)

    Very close ones, e.g. 2.0 at the bookie and 2.02 at Betfair. I think a 10% loss per bet is more realistic, certainly when you're still learning the basics.

    Cool. Is it north or south Wales you're going to?

    Central West sort of... pretty much right in the middle... some farm lol.

    50 hairy smelly bikers? Brave man! :p

    I will be passing by Cardiff as we'll be coming over the bridge then following the south coast until we turn North, is bit of a trek from Cornwall, luckily my mate is putting his bike on a trailer and we're driving.

    Most of the bikers come from ooop norf and we have quite a few attractive ladies in our group too :j

    I'm sorry, pickled gherkins???
    Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending
