Not much surprises me these days. But was pretty shocked at that line. Title: Re: Your place or mine?

They mean for money. If it doesn't involve gambling, it can't really fall within their jurisdiction, can it? Title: Re: Your place or mine?

If you're all playing with Nanny Ada's jar of coppers, given she counts them back into the jar of Bell's on your way out, you could be any age to play. That's my reading of it, anyway. Happy to be wrong. Never get me gambling. Whatever I do, there's no hope of monetary gain. |
