hearthammer Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 There's a race at Catterick this afternoon involving a limited field of 2 horses. The bookies have the favourite at 1/25, yet the other horse is only 8/1 to win. Surely if the favourite is priced as "canny fail" at such an outrageous odds on price, the other runner should be at least 25/1 as it's seen as the no-hoper of the pair ?? Bookies and the betting industry have everything weighted in their favour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Khaki Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Cheese and Onion crisps in blue packets. The UN should have issued a proscribed list of approved colour/flavour combinations, with any supplier violating it being subject to a resolution and their premises bombed/occupied. Cheese and Onion - Dark Green Spring Onion - Pale Green Salt & Vinegar - Pale Blue Ready Salted - Dark Blue Smokey Bacon -Dark Pink Prawn Cocktail - Pale Pink Tomato Ketchup - Red Pickled Onion - Purple Steak/Beef - Brown Other exotic varieties should be approved on a case by case basis, but only after a formal vote and reserving the right for individual member states to veto. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the road to chaos Ah... you could go with the Tudor approach of a mostly white packet, with pale green trim. Clever.
