    Sound like you have had a very productive day. I have signed up for the betdaq offer via quidco and I am now searching for some good matches.....

    Once I get going again I should be fine. I too have a deadline of the term starting holidays are going very quickly this year.

    Enjoy the footie.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    I've just done another little matched bet, was an in-play one and the odds changed, so if team a wins 2-0 I end up with £5.03 profit and if they don't I get £2.70. All profit so its good :D Off to do another little one on the England match tonight ...

  • BBAM.... you've exhausted me just reading what you've done today :o And here I was,,,, thinking I'd been good,,,,, by doing my "Spring" clean on the bathroom :rotfl:

    Ironing ? ...... What's that then ? I have to say, it's not something I tend to do - gosh I am just so lazy :o

    I keep reading about the matched betting ... just havent managed to pluck up the courage to do it yet ( not to mention lack of "Excess" funds to committ to it and it seems a shame to "waste" some of the good intro offers that come around by only doing a "small" deposit / bet.) I understand the principle just fine....... it be when it comes to the actual "doing" of it :eek:

    Catch up soon

    The England match will make me £3 :D:D
    I know how you feel Greyhound about the matched betting, but one day it got the better of me as I couldn't bear to think of all that available money I was missing out on ;) :rotfl:

    Greyhound - don't panic over the matched betting. I'm thinking of starting a Facebook group off for people who want to understand MB but can't / won't / don't.:rolleyes:
