Sad scenes really.

I miss the old teletext days in some ways. Technology is moving way too fast these days.

It's less than 20 years since we were all using teletext and betting by phone. Looking back, it's no surprise there were so many angles to play.

Now everything is spoon-fed to everyone and there's no incentive to putting the work in.

SpIndex P604, City P609, Hills P601-603? Wasn't S.J something random like 539?

Ladbrokes was def 606-607  ig index 608 i think.  Can't remember what coral was maybe 677?  Stan was 634 i think or 639
