Think Red

I'm certain these were getting emptied a few years back. Can anyone confirm?
I never knew the system and the couple of players I still keep in contact don't know the empty either.
Anyway, one of these has turned up in a pub near me.

Might still be sensitive? PMs appreciated.

Waiting outside a pub this morning and so was an ex mate but he was in a different car park so I didn't see him when I drove in. He rings me says I'm waiting for it, even though he said he was in there last night(blatant lies) when I question him about that he starts getting funny and says he will ...

update - over two months without a gamble for me now and i've paid one of my credit cards off. in the last few years it was the combination of playing machines in pubs of an evening weeknights along with a beer that made me realise i'd had enough (generally making about £50-£80 each eve) which sound...

Longest you've gone without having a bet?

As an adult in the UK, what is the longest you have gone without having a gamble. Being in jail or somewhere where it isn't possible to have a bet doesn't count. Also, I know some might say that when they play a machine it isn't a gamble, as they know they will win, but there is always the risk fact...
