I own up, this thread makes me nervous cos I've no idea what any of it means, but I love the seediness of it. Suddenly there are odd characters on street corners and a crackling kind of atmosphere. Monaogg has a horsey swagger. Johnny's Arcade is doing weird hand signals. Lurcher dogs everywhere. It's just the numbers that have floored me
LOL!! That is what it is all about. Just a bit of fun!

Used to work in a bookies. Blummin hard on the feet but great fun and a real view of an otherwise hidden side of life.

Hello, please may I have £10 on Option 5 too? I think that's the most likely time at a guess, hopefully! Thank you!

I'd like £10 on Alison to go on Saturday, please Johnny.

And £10 on Option 4 please.

To be fair, quite glad Judy didn't go last week

Can I have a £10 on option 7 please and £10 on Alison to go. I am hopeless at the normal betting when I do (which is rarely), so thought I give a try at this. Fun but no money losses.

I'd like to put a tenner on the result being announced Option 6.

I'd also like to put the same amount on Scott being in the dance-off.

You have a tenner on option 6 @ 2/1. However, I am not quoting a price for Scott to be in the D/O. I am however offering 6/4 Scott to go this week if you are interested.
