Hi all, I'm James and have been playing fruit machines since I started going to pubs (around 15 years I guess). I hope I can contribute to the forum, it looks and interesting place :)

Happy new year and welcome. Will go into more detail at a better time but basically it's like the size of a USB dongle and has 4 mini switches on it. Various combinations of on/off give you different stakes and prizes. If you've got an Impact manual you'll know exactly what is what but otherwise it's trial and error and piss the neighbours off with nonsense settings that make the machine alarm until you get the right settings. Is Oak amusements still open in Ripley?

Hi I'm Alex. Used to play puggys a lot in the late 90s. Used to make quite a bit through being disciplined and just playing machines I knew how to play, fort boyards, king kebabs, snake rattle and roll etc. Met my wife, had kids, stopped playing once kids came along, kids at school now so bit of spare time on hands so I get chance to play a bit more. Live in bathgate, got about 10 pubs to choose from, thing is these days I feel like a munter playing the Puggy as they've changed so much. Hopefully joining here will help me get a bit of knowledge about fruities again.
