My trip away....

MONDAY:
travelled up to Knutsford services and stayed at the travelodge. Milked a few machines before playing Little Devil...up to £10 on the cash stack first board, decided to force (wrong move!)....£60 later, about 4 boards...walked away. Shocking gameplay. The mrs was not impressed!

TUESDAY:
went into Blackpool (stayed @ the south shore travelodge which i recommend), didnt find any £5jp GG's ready in any arcade, so quite a bit down on the day then went into the central pier, 25p play £25JP GG's (my favourite)...2 of the 3 were full and made plenty on both. Went on down to the pleasure beach and lost a bit on the GGG's and plasma monopoly's.

WEDNESDAY:
was supposed to go Blackpoo Zoo but the weather was shite so we drove up the coast to Cleveleys, none of the GGG's were ready but £1 into an Extravaganza and the bars spin in for £35. Also walked past a party time with XXX on the winline, stuck a quid in and got 'player 2 its you...' only for it do go straight back down again without a spin on the top reels, weird? Then drove to Lancaster, lovely town compared to any down here (kent) and went in an arcade (they had £15 party times) hadnt seem them in years!!! Played the 10p OXO's for a quick profit. Then onto the Lancaster travelodge.

THURSDAY:
the weather was awesome so we went to Blackpool Zoo. What a disappointment. The layout was rubbish and we were in and out within an hour!!!! So back we go into Blackpool for a nice Pizza Hut buffet. Then the slottin begins again. Went into Coral Island and it was packed, literally coudnt get on any lo-tecs as people were playing 3 at a time! Mad. Then the streak begins. I forget which arcade it was but went on the £25 monopolys. 2 of the 3 were full and made loads on and the other one stuck a £1 in for £30 whistle. 10secs later the mrs puts £3 in a party time and walks away with £53. Then go back to the central pier and one of the £25 GG's is full again from Tuesday, so more profit there. This is where i may have got talking to one of you. A bloke was milking a Round The Bend, asked if i was a full time player and if i had a key, and if i was doing cash attack's etc. Then he mentioned about a mate from Bournemouth who plays fulltime and has just had his house taken away by the police due to not proving how he bought it??? (might be bullshite, might not?) Anyway nice bloke was there with his family. Walked away on the day well well up!!!! Drove down to Talke, had a lovely carvery and got a super streak off a £1 on a ROTJ....guess wat stayed @ a travelodge.

FRIDAY:
went to Alton Towers. Had a good time....played one fruity 'The CodFather' £4 in for an IM and got £9 off super streak. Drove up to Pott Shrigley and stayed in a posh hotel 'Shrigley Hall' and had a lovely meal in the Cock & Pheseant and £4 off a cludo of a £1. Whoppody Dooo!!!!

SATURDAY:
went to Haydock Park for the races. Great weather and great venue. Here were my winners:

2.10 Fat Boy 10/11F & forecast of Fat Boy & Tajdeef 9/2
3.15 Major Cadeaux EvensF
4.20 Gee Dee Nan 11/2

From six race's 3 winners and a 2nd, and a forecast. Not bad.

Then back to Shrigley Hall.

SUNDAY:
drove home back to kent. Stopped at Leicester Forest services and put £5 in the Rainbow Riches for 3 Lepracauns which paid out £40 plus 5 10's for £10. Then £5 into the one next to it for £50 of's Rainbow Riches symbols. So £100 of a £10 my gf was sooooo happy!!!!. Finally got home about 4pm, and my gf was convinced we were on a lucky streak so we drove to our secret location for the evening, and made another £160 on the GGGs.

Unbelievable week and had an awesome time. The profits outwayed the losses which always helps!!!!!

No mate, he had fair hair and was definitely northern. Those golden games were flying tho, i saw some other bloke play the multi game £35ers, he put £5 in and every spin gave him a feature. Easily won over £100. Never seen them play like that. Also....the people who work in there watch you like a hawk!

No, i stay away from DOND's and tend not to play hi-tecs. I have a full time job but lately i seem to be making loads on GG's and GGG's. In the last month probably easily over £500 profit. Off topic but i saw two lads plugging a X-BAR-SEVEN every 5minutes the other day, any thoughts?
