He was a strange chap, not that anyone knew until his daughter talked to the papers after he was gone. Back then there was a Head Of The Household approach to families which corrupted the men as much as it ruined the lives of the women and underlying it was the absolute taboo on discussing such things with anyone. It's been a major shift, these last thirty years.

Anyhow, that's an aside. Back to the betting.

What? Wide Boy Mickey? I think I can manage 5:1 for you, special offer for the regulars, can't say fairer than that. If you put 1,000 casino dollars on you'll win 5,000 casino dollars if he shows up.

If you consider that I'm liable to be down 63,000 casino dollars by tomorrow and the most I can win is 8,000 casino dollars it sort of makes one wonder whether I need treatment.

I had 3,200 casino dollars before I started the bookie shop, I'm up at the moment.

What's stopping me from expanding isn't capital, it's punters. I've put the link into my sig but there's still less than ten players. I need word-of-mouth advertising or I need to make books on more exciting contests. Any suggestions?

well i think at the moment the x factor and celebrity are more just for the british people on here,,, why dont you put up a thread asking other non british FG'ers what kind of thing they would like to bet on,, is there not any reality shows going on there at the mo?
