we're having weather like Lenny's for an hour then sleet/snow for 10 mins - it's spring!

Gemmzie

Well done Lenny :T

We moved around our entire conversatory around today, thankfully just before the rain came in!

Betfair usually settle pretty quickly on the footy so if there's a clear winner from the gee gee's it should be within an hour

Whoooo hooo, one of the eight horses i spread my bets over won! £33.00 in my winnings!

Plus i bet on Celtic to get beat by Motherwell (and yes, i am a celtic supporter but i had a hunch!) and they did get beat, so another £30 up!

£63.00 off my free bets, plus £50 in Quidco!!! omigod!!!

I won over a hundred quid on my free bets and that is without the £30 cashback from quidco. hurrah, that will make a small dent in my credit card - yippeeeeeeeeee. Just waiting for my free £25 to cash out.

And there was me wondering how I would manage to keep on track for my pay £20k off by xmas this month with loads of birthdays to go to. Problem solved thanks to Martin, Betfair, Quidco and a couple of rather speedy horses.

Can I just say to anyone who's bet and won/lost - PLEASE don't get into regular mug betting. You will end up losing.

If you understand the layout of bookies and want to almost guarantee a profit - look into matched betting

Good point raised Gemmzie.

I used to gamble on and off...never very much, but too much in the cirumstances. I stopped gambling because I was worried I might go down another wrong path, so now I only matched bet.

I only gamble with free bets, but yes good point Gemmzie. Easy to get carried away with offers like Betfair etc.

Lenny......... well done on the shed, but i'd love to know what you intend to put in a shed so small?

Or is it deceptively large? tardis like?

1820 tonight, Dr Who starts again! I cannae wait!!!

Whooo Hooooo another winner here, £64 on the horse and £50 from Quidco...turning into a good weekend!!!! DH is annoyed now that he didn't do it...he's far too sceptical and said I wouldn't get the money back.

Lenny the shed erection is looking great, well done you!

Cheers Gemmzie - couldn't agree more.

NEVER bet more money than you can afford to screw up and flush down the toilet

(that was a lesson handed down to me from daddy Poor)
