I'm glad you posted a smiley face in response to my gag about "Poor Grandma" Rob.
As soon as I posted it, I realised what I'd done.
What if "Grandma" had just been taken ill, or worse.
Wouldn't have been the first time I'd put my foot in it.
I was at a London train station with a mate, when a guy asked us where he needed to go to get a train to Frome, and was it a long journey.
"Paddington" I said straight away, "And get yourself a couple of newspapers, or a good magazine as it's quite a long ride".
Then I realized he was a Thalidomide victim with literally no arms.
God, I felt bad as I really didn't mean any offence, but just said it without thinking.
Then I was in a pub in north-west London with two very good hits in, so had to really get a pint to avoid any heat.
The barman was getting on a bit, I don't know, maybe 120 years old or something, anyway I ordered a Guinness and a cider for my mate.
"Seven pounds eighty please" he says with his hand outstretched.
So I put a two-pence piece in his hand, cocked my head to one side, smiled and said "Back in the day, eh?"
He obviously thought I was calling him an old cunt, and slapped the coin on the bar.
"Seven pounds eighty" he says again with no humour whatsoever.
Miserable old fart.
My mate shook his head, smiling and said "Jord, mate . . . Sometimes . . . !"

hate some workers !playwithrob wrote:People who work in pubs are right strange. I used to work in one.
The late pub in dartford that has 2 flickers & 2 deals has a bossy chef! He saw me and bob playing the tioli and stood watching then I was about £30 into it and he came saying " haven't I emptied the machines yet" & "how many machines have I played today" the he stood talking to 3 barmaid right next to the machine saying how I should play the game and how it's only leaving me the 70s then death. I told them the game won't give me what I want, the a few boards later I took the game and just kept jabbing the leave it button for mega lol. I can see me getting red card soon coz that twat!
condoms... ribbed for her pleasure! turn it inside out and its ribbed for my pleasure

I'm a casual player, have a full time job and have played the machines for about ten years on and off. I've never known any emptiers or anything like that but used to win a fair whack with my mate when there was Red gamings everywhere, we could easy make 3-400 on a saturday, even a novice like me could read them. I still play now but rareky win anything to speak of aside from fluking a m/s here and there. I don't think I've adapted that well to the 70 j/p's and my style of play at the mo is a bit shite. It's all relative though I suppose, compared to some I'd still be considered a pro.

Pro must mean earn the wage from fruits. Though if you are covering an area that isn't touched you can get a decent income. I know of at least 2 people who get things even later than me (if that is possible lol) but they have sites pretty much untouched my players. The odd time the units are down they just adjust the schedule. To burn out the visitors.
