theoak, I think that you are correct in that it adds greatly to your perceived respectability and often puts landlords on the back foot if you talk to them clearly, firmly and intelligently.

It's not that you were allowed to keep your money, rather that the person who 'caught' you knew that he had no legal right to take it from you, even if you were doing something wrong. That's what police are for. You never want that to happen though, as it takes ages to get your cash back off them.

Imagine the pickle you would have been in if someone had tooled the machine prior to your playing it ! But of course, proletarian logic dictates that if it was short, you must have robbed it because it couldn't possibly have been anyone else at any other time.

I suppose at the end of the day it depends on what pub you go into, i know which pubs i would key in and which ones i definately wouldn't round here, but as said, the majority of people i've spoken to refer to them as 'cheat keys' so i'd imagine pub staff would think the same and not look too lightly on it, at the end of the day don't get caught, and try minimise your winnings rattling the tray.

How realistic and/or practical is sticking your refill key up your bum in the middle of a pub?

Should get all on here (unofficially of course) to ring up at all hours and tell them what you think. Tell them you work for the East Anglia Daily Times and want their side of the story or are from the licensing department of Essex County Council.

Tried that extreme again last night it was 'stacker' strake away then moved on to the secret location set of games and two of
them were 'clackett' and the other wasn't but was whipsnade.

Ripped boxes on RR wedged for MS which was breaker for £70, followed obviously by another set of lines yanked for £35.
