Meh Garcia. I punted on him last time. Not a fan.

Yeah I made the thing for my dad's birthday and got it printed and it came out really well. He has it up in his pub and apparently it's a real talking point and people have been asking him where he got it from etc.

My plan was to knock up a kind of graphics design website and sell some stuff on there. Initially it was a pocket money project for evenings and weekends but now I might have to grind out some mortgage payments.. I have T-shirt designs, these canvas/poster date designs, along with some video templates. Unfortunately not had time really, life has gotten in the way work has been up in the air as I mentioned and my grandad died a couple of weeks ago so was helping sort out his funeral, then ended up staying down in London for abit to be with family etc. (He was my favourite person on this planet. Such a complete hero.  Actually taught me how to play poker (in before not very well..) along with other card games, rummy, brag, trumps and my all time favourite card game ever; newmarket aka kings.

Spent a lot of time making a video montage / tribute type thing for my grandad which was played at the wake and also spent a bit of time making a video for Amelie (my daughter) as it's her first bday tomorrow and I didn't want to give her something she could cherish forever. How quick time flies.

Anyway, that feels like some sort of morbid diary entry. So to brighten up the mood here is a link to Amelie's bday vid I made:

I also am planning on trialling yet another new system once the season starts. Max poss outlay is £50 per month, potential is deece. Not the nittiest mind, but i like it. Apart from those bets I will not be punting at all!!!!!
 

Like the Amelie Vid

The game of Newmarket, now that brings back memories

The £51 kept behind from the last comp's winnings have been sprayed accordingly:



Hope we get another good run. Really enjoyed sweating the last comp.

Talking of sweats in just over 3hrs time I find out if my branch of the company is being shut down resulting in 12 of us being made redundant. Trev don't suppose you have any vacancies for a junior trader do ya? or maybe space for me, the missus and a baby to kip? It's that or I might have to start Milli's plus size male escorts.


Followed those bets Smiley

Good luck on the job front, have you been trying to qualify for Grand Prix?

Narp, not played online or live for a while really.

Meeting didn't go well. Everyone in my department is getting made redundant apart from 3 people who have been there > 10 years. Although they will be getting the chop in < 18 months time. I have til end of September during which time I will facilitate the move to one of our branches in Asia then my 2 month notice starts. Hoping I don't have to work that though. Redundancy package is the abs minimum required by law. (2.5yrs service = 2.5 weeks pay)

God damn Asians taking all our women and our jobs. Could be the best thing that's ever happened to me if I stop being a lazy prick and try and make something of myself. That or I could be spending Xmas on the streets..

Anyways there's still much worse off people out there than me.

COME ON JIMENEZ. GL Redsi, you being on got us home last time. 1 more time.

That's the private sector for ya Si. If it costs too much get rid or get it done cheaper abroad. Which unfortunately for me and a few others does make good business sense.

Cheers Tightamous. It's make or break time really. At least I have a few months to get sorted. Some are pretty much straight out the door.

Might even get spinning itt again. Title change "Paying for shit - WOTN". I reckon I could scrape by on £1k per month so starting with £10 = £20, £40, £80, £160, £320, £640, £1280. That's ONLY 8 successful bets at evens needed every month. (Tongue in cheek, just in case Smiley)

If you build it..
