Just cracked open a bottle of Capt Morgan’s Spiced Rum. Didn’t have anything else in except the 2 bottles of whiskey I bought when each of the kids were born. They aren’t getting opened until their wedding day. So they are up in the loft out of the way. Couldn’t trust myself otherwise.
Been supporting them for over 50 years and am basically a tea totaller However, turned me to gambling, so haven't got away scot free. Still "forced" my 3 lads up to suffer with me
I love a bit of money on the football. Had a manual acca on Sat. Bet one the 4 PL games one at a time. Started with £5 and after 3 games I had £42 on the mags to win. found myself in the disgusting position of willing them to score with a few mins to go. Felt sick
Not sure if I could have done that I have been in a competition my youngest asked me to go in, called the "Killer", where you have to pick a premier league team to win each week (can only pick a team once). Anyway, only 2 of us left this week and I picked Liverpool to beat Palace ⚽ The other guy picked Spurs to beat Leicester ⚽ BOOM, £150 coming my way (although go halves with my son).
Wife (no) and daughter (no) just seen Salma over my shoulder as I was reading this - interrogation started immediately
In another one with my son, where you get an imaginary £5 to split between 2 bets in all 4 leagues. I am doing ****e but he is top with 1 week to go (stops and Xmas with a new one starting in the New Year), so we could be having another share out.
My niggle is that it’s a bit bourbony if you know what I mean. I’m not a connoisseur though so that might be the actual point for all I know
