Title: Things ain't, really, what they used to be Post by: TightEnd on January 21, 2008, 10:43:39 PM Jeremy Paxman wrote to Marks and Spencer to complain that their underpants had become worse in the area of "support", compared to prior years.
What else has got worse over the years? here are two for starters 1 Curly Whirly's, specifically their length 2 Leeds United, specifically the talent of their footballers Oh and a 3rd, just for you 3 24, which was exciting but is now a pastiche.

At least when I first played 5 card draw many years ago in Ireland. Set = Trips Straight = Run Broadway Straight = High Run Flush = Blue Quads = Poker Title: Re: Things ain't, really, what they used to be Post by: Ironside on January 22, 2008, 10:39:35 PM Set = Trips both are different set is when you have a pocket pair and hit a 3rd on the board really hard to spot and very easy to "SET" a trap with trips is when there is a pair on the board and you "triple up" with one in your hand alot easier to spot than the set Title: Re: Things ain't, really, what they used to be Post by: TEX FITZ on January 23, 2008, 09:37:34 AM Quote Agree about raisins in double deckers - they were much better.
