If I give you the address of the bookies, the time I'll be going and a description of what 'll be wearing, will that help you?

Would you trust a cheque from a bookie?

After all, gambling debts are binding in honour only and are not legally enforceable.

Will they give me a cheque or will it be £ash?

I forgot to have my annual punt, so I've effectively won because I usually lose.

Life is sweet .....

Have you ever noticed how permies are more that happy to take your money, but when it comes to paying out ....

On Friday I was asked to take part in the company sweepstake - no doubt they thought that as a contractor I am minted and can therefore afford to subsidise their winnings - little did they know that I would pick the winner !!

Oh, how I've enjoyed coming in this morning to collect my winnings !!!!
