The daughter and me

 

There's a guy who goes in the Cheese who works on supply ships for oil wells and wind farms etc. Before lockdown, he said he'd arrange to have me sent a couple of distress parachute flares for when we won the league. Go about 100 metres up and burn red for two minutes. They didn't arrive, but I managed to get his mobile number and texted him my address. They still didn't arrive, so I texted him again. He said they defo should have and sent me a photo of the dispatch ticket - one digit wrong in the address and no such house number. He said he'd check into it.

About a week after, I was working on my laptop when I heard the letter box clang and looked up to see a uniform, so I shouted and opened the door. He gace me a parcel and a letter. I opened the parcel and inside was a pair of red flares.

You sure he didn't say distressed flares?

 

Went in yesterday afternoon for the Sunday crossword ritual. Phil the DJ (currently furloughed) said that one of the lads who goes in now and again (utd supporter) had done an acca coupon and everything was going onto Citeh beating Arsenal. I thought it'd be a tenner or something. He came in a little later and I said "I believe City let you down for a few quid" laughing when I said it. He looked at me and said "Yeah. £600". I stopped laughing and commiserated with him

 

should have carried on laughing just a bit louder .

 

When you see him again, tell him someone has pointed out, that he could have covered that bet with a lump on Arsenal plus the draw double chance and guaranteed himself a tidy return irrespective of the result. That’ll defo make him feel better about it

 

see knife , twist knife

 

That's a very valid point

 

The worst bit is, that the Gooners were 8/1 to win, so the double chance would have likely been circa 4’s.

So a ton on that and he’d have been guaranteed a minimum of about £400 profit and a max return of £500.

He’ll cry his eyes out when you land that one on him mate

 

Anyone else get the feeling RHC hadn't a clue what Tobes said here...?

 

Don't be ****ing ridiculous.

 

Quiz night again tonight. Can anyone stop the mighty juggernaut that is 'The Doobies'?

 

No they can't.

In other news, check out the Warrington Guardian website. 30 man riot in Latchford. Blokes I ski masks and balaclava. One man stabbed. Two arrested
This at 4 pm in the afternoon

 

It's only a quiz ffs

 

i'd never of had RHC down as a skier .

 

Ffs.

 

@Tobes . Saw that guy who had that bet. I passed your advice on to him. He also had 8- 1 double. Liverpool to win the league and Everton to finish in the bottom half. He asked me to let you know.

 

2 things there mate. Firstly 8-1 on that? Not sure I believe him, but hey ho.

Secondly, doesn’t alter the fact he pissed actual cash away on the bet you mentioned, the rank amateur
