Argh, unlucky.

Returned £268.20 so a net profit of £143.20. Once again thank you Bet365 for free Aintree money. :cheers:

Back every horse @ £3 e/w plus and additional £1 e/w insurance on the five shortest odds equals £250 of bets for £125. Due to the long odds, the unpredictability of the race and paying six places, doing this has never let me down yet.

Thanks for clarifying your point, I get where you’re coming from now. Purely from personal experience, their continued use seems to be more prevalent in pubs up north. Does that match your experience?

I’m confused. You suggested that the ‘re-use’ of wasted beer didn’t happen so I pointed out the use of autovac systems in pubs, assuming that you weren’t aware of them but now you say you do and post a link about the not so good old days. They are still out there, landlords can still buy them...

I’m guessing you didn’t see the thread title before it was changed. :)

Anyone else massively disappointed when they actually opened the thread?

lol no. :D Just pointing out that SE25 and SE19 are actually pretty close to each other. It takes me just over 20 minutes walking to get from the ground to the triangle.

I guess you haven’t heard of autovacs then? Never seen one in a Wetherspoons but there’s plenty of pubs using them.

Which is just over a mile from the CP Triangle.

Thanks for the heads up on theses offers, order placed.

If I buy using one of those links, as opposed to the link in your signature, does it still help fund this place?

It’s only fair to admit, but you’d definitely find a sprinkling of them in the aforementioned Man in the Wall. :)

That may be true of their London pubs, but that’s certainly not true for plenty of their venues outside the metropolis. The Man in the Wall in Wimborne is an excellent example. It bears absolutely no relation to the image you paint.

Scrabster? You must have eaten at the Upper Deck then? :) I agree with you about Speyside, it’s beautiful. I go up a couple of times a year to fish the Castle Water, staying at Fochabers (which is also a bit grey for my liking. :wink:) May is my favourite time, the intoxicating smell of wild...

The relentless grey of the town, the quality of the hotels, the lack of good pubs or restaurant’s back then (The Upper Deck was considered the height of sophisticated dining ffs). The salmon fishing was excellent mind.

It was Dounreay where I was working when I was up there. I used to do all I could to commute daily from Aberdeen on the post office plane rather than having to stay in Thurso. :)

We were in the EU when the UK passed its own 1990 Food Safety Act. :)

I used to visit Thurso regularly many years ago with work, it was pretty grim even back then.

But he didn’t refuse to pay furlough which I thought was your actual point. “employees were paid as normal on Friday 27 March, and have been paid on every Friday since.”
