Oh MD it is nice to know you better hun, any tips for the National
:D:D Only joking..
You are absolutely right, few years ago when I used to have good wages (sigh), I spent over £700 within a week or two in the Roullette machine and I stopped since then almost altogether...I think I was a bit depressed with my study etc
I only do a couple of bets every now and then but I prefer competitions ...and love it here. I am converted

I only ever bet on the National nowadays, about £20 total stake which includes a couple of reversed forecasts, e/ways, tricasts type bets.
Was fairly lucky last year as I had a decent priced 2nd, 3rd or 4th placed horse (can't remember the name or price, but got my stake back and a little more as I recall) My beautiful eldest son went to Aintree for last years Grand National and placed the bets for me... :T
I have a smashing piccie of him taken by his mate at the meeting which I have as my wallpaper on my laptop... :j It's a very special pic for me as he hates his photo being taken even though he's bloomin handsome young man (sorry biased I know, but he's my first born baby) and he doesn't let me take his photo even a Christmas... :eek:
