    yes, indeed you should madam!!!!! you work incredibly hard at your full time job and the workshops too. it is natural that you will have "couldn't give a flying pony" moments and so shouldn't beat yourself up over it. Listen to your body, if it is telling you to stop then STOP!!! else you will be ill and will have to stop.......

    RIGHT!!!!!

    Okay........ wouldn't dare argue with you! :)

    :o I know you're right. I do have some days like that - just wish there were a few more of them - but I guess I should stop giving myself a hard time! Am going to get an early night tonight as I have to catch a train at some ungodly hour in the morning to go to Durham. Goodnight everyone.

    Good luck in Durham, my OH comes from there. A very lovely little city,
    and stop giving yourself a hard time.

    Hiya, can i ask a really silly question... just asked this on the gambling intro board but no reply, would you know? would really appreciate it...

    STOOPID QUESTION ALERT....

    Laying against a draw at betfair coming up "you are betting against the draw to win"

    Ie if the team doesn't draw the money will go to betfair? or the bet will "win" right?

    sorry just the terminology has confused me :(

  • Turnips are coming on a treat. I am watching them grow, but i had to give away one of their number today as a present....

    I have printed off the matched betting stuff, and also stuff on lay betting from betfair. My uncle is good at stuff like this, so may go and bend his ear as well. I did try an ex bookie friend of ours as well, but he said not to bother..what kind of answer is that? He is probably trying to save me some grief in his own gentle way...

    P. it means you are betting against the draw being the winning outcome! At least I think that is what it means!

    Thanks for your support yesterday guys - am feeling much better today - though have to say this morning I was not a happy bunny in the field at 6.30am trying to recapture the escapee (see P's diary!). But had a relatively good work trip and was home earlier than expected so generally feeling more philosophical.

    I am going to try to be more realistic and accept that I can only push myself so far. Things may take a little longer but I will be saner with it! :p

    Tonight is training - I take a dog and take a class (not at the same time) so will catch up again later...
