Bloody hell it’s cold! And I don’t like it. Not. One. Bit.
What I also don’t like, is drawdowns. And to start a new year off suffering from one is very much on my “Not Like” list. What else is on that list?, I hear you clamour.
- John Terry.
- Teddy Sheringham
- Drawdowns
- VAR
- Referees
- All the above.
Other than that, I’m a fairly affable, easy going chap. Oh, apart from people who don’t indicate at roundabouts. Don’t like them either. And spiders. What is the point of spiders!? Let the world be overcome by flying insects, I say. It’s got to be better than those hairy, eight legged monsters who have no idea about what direction they’re going to scurry in next. And I swear they’re getting bigger.
Anyway, my betting has been like a spider this week – all over the place and horrible. And nothing’s won.
Looking on the bright side, after Round 1 of the golf, I’ve got three players all in a share for top spot, and another couple just a shot or two back. Loooong way to go yet, and if things go in a similar way to the rest of my wagering this week, my best performer will finish 8 over par after having his leg chewed off by an alligator at the 17th. Do they even have alligators in Hawaii? Probably not, but knowing my luck there’ll be one there that’s got himself lost. And hungry.
Note to WinnerOdds Football. Please can the really high staked, very short priced bets start to win? It would make the world of difference. Thank you.
Note to The Value Machine. Can someone there please do something about this weather. It would be nice to have something to bet on. Thank you too.
On a serious note, and a little addition to the portfolio for the near future. eSoccer Edge looked very interesting when I read the blurb. Small stakes to start off with, as is my usual way when trialling something new. Let’s see what happens.
Right, I’ve a bottle of wine to drink. First week back at work this week too. Not used to it. Exhausted!
Have a great weekend, folks.
