I like getting on an empty train and watching as inevitably EVERYONE else sits at a table regardless how many of them there are and whether they need a table. We are basically all clones. I try to avoid sitting at a table If travelling alone, so I don’t have some random stranger sitting opposite me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mainly travel off peak so grab a table and usually get to keep it to myself. A few cans on the table and smiling enthusiastically at strangers approaching helps.

That was not a pretty listen and very much got on my nerves When I first started work the only channel I wanted to listen to was Radio 1. My old tradesman would only listen to Radio 2 which caused no end of friction between us. Now I would even listen to classical music long before I would even think of putting Radio 1 on. I used to be very up to date on my music but the stuff that they play on there now gives utter garbage a bad name. Once heard some utter saddo on there saying that they were going to have some shit by some rapper called Wretch32 as his first dance at his wedding. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you’re really unlucky and the train alcy decides you could be his mate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Placing a fiver on 4 favourites to win about £30 just seems like a huge waste of time and I can't imagine there's much joy when one comes in. My weekly accumulator has pretty much reduced to that tbh. Not quite as low as £30, but I'd say one of my 4 or 5 coupons in the month will only stand to win £50. I can understand the feeling that there's no real thrill in that but I'd rather a more realistic chance at £50 since I'm shite at gambling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each to their own I suppose, I much prefer placing one £10 bet on say 3 teams at decent value than backing various favourites on multiple coupons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone was a bit down as Cowden missed a late penalty to make it 7-1 then in the dying seconds former Pars youth-turned Cowden centre half carthorse thundered in a 30 yard consolation. ETA: it was on the back of our previous few games ending 4-1,5-1 and 6-1. Edited October 22, 2019 by Shandon Par 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stellaboz Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Pat Scullion. Won't ever forget that name. Was getting odds of around 150/200-1 all week on that scoreline and was considering a few quid for a laugh. Bucked on the morning of the game and stuck a quid on 100-1. Was at the Edinburgh festival with the missus and was trying to stay in touch with the score but the signal was shite, got a text from Baracus saying something along the lines of "you jammy b*****d nice win". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
