Boring Story .... But I Just Had To Do It

[-Talbot-]

So I'm watching Royal Ascot and having a few bets
I'm also on AB.. commenting on a music thread by andy hughes
I start singing a few songs
I get an earworm....♫♪♫ for the benefit of mr kite there will a blah blah blah ♫♪
I then spot a horse named. ..yep you've got it 'Mr Kite'
I think there's a Mr Kite on AB you're singing the song Mr Kite (bored yet)
So, doing ok with the betting anyway, I thought 'why not?'
Stuck 50 on @ 6/1

Do you believe this was a message from "god?"

Good luck x. Andy Hughes is God? Wow :-)

[-Talbot-]

Message from God?
No, I'm probably just a little bit stupid!

In fact I call people who bet this way... stupid!

[Broseph]

/Andy Hughes is God? Wow :-)

If the op wins then maybe we should start taking more of an interest in what Andy has to say particularly about large asteroids on a close call with earth and the lottery number predictions ;)

[pixie374]

Lol :-) will wait and see....

[-Talbot-]

It did win, hence the thread. Do you think if it had lost I would fess up?

[wolf63]

So, as my late mum used to say, 'sharey shareys'

[pixie374]

Clearly not stupid then.... Let me go and find Andy....

Nice win Talbot, well done.

Talbot, some would call that a 'mug's bet', others, myself included, call it a coincidence bet. Couple of weeks back i was on Neymar to score anytime for Brazil and a horse called Neymar in a 9/1 double. Both came in. Had tried it a couple of weeks before with Arsenal to win and a horse called Arsenale - both lost. The first was a coincidence bet, the second a 'mug's bet':-)

So do you usually pick just on form? £300's a nice win. what are you buying us?

[Broseph]

/It did win, hence the thread. Do you think if it had lost I would fess up?/

Nice work. Maybe your run of luck hasn't ended yet and you should actually go out and buy a kite? You could be flying it in the local park,it could come crashing down in a bush and you might be led to a large sum of money hidden there or something. Then again it could just come crashing down on someones head resulting in them suing you or worse into some nearby power lines leaving you to think as you lay in hospital "Why the **** did I listen to that idiot online.

Ken, I go along with the mugs bet. I remember a long, long time ago at the races with a non punter.

"I've bet on a horse called... you know the rules" he tells me.

'Why For Funks Sake it hasn't got a cat in hells chance'

"Well before I came out the missus told me a few do's and don'ts for today"

"Don't get bladdered, no night club etc, etc"

The ****ing thing won at 33/1 :0(

Haven't you just asked someone on another thread if they had been drinking, Bro?


It's Friday, Pru...fish n chips and maybe a pickled egg?

[Broseph]

/Haven't you just asked someone on another thread if they had been drinking, Bro?/

Ye I did as it appears he had been.

[Prudie]

You're on as long as the egg aint runny

[Psybbo]

Well done, Mick but don't fly your kite tonight!

[cazza247]

Did you much luck at Ascot then, just curious as I work on a betting shop

[Ken4155]

Personally i've had a terrible Ascot with just a few placed in e.w. bets. Though i am consistent, if nothing else, as i never have a good Ascot. One guy on the racing forum put up an ante-post bet earlier in the week; a £10 e.w. treble, Tuesday - Solow @ 11/8, Wednesday - Acapulco @ 6/1 and Today - Ervedya @ 7/2. He got £811.11 at PP. At least someone's taking money from the bookies.

Not boring to me. But I love betting related stories.
