Can I go for half a year? If so, I'd say the first 6 months since the £70 JP was introduced!

Surely to god you can't beat the thrill of yanking pot after pot off a space raiders? Never did have the body for darts though.

I think space raiders would be great on £1 £70. But no, we must love take it or it leave and double deals.

2006 was my year as I was a single man, things change when a woman is on the scene, had a driving ban in 2008-2009 so that slowed things down considerably. Nowadays, I'm out 3 times a week to cover the bills, night outs and a few holidays

I'm with you there 100% with the Vivid era. From a casual's point of view, I liked them because they had very original game concepts for a fruit machine. The only thing that got a bit overdone were the cards games. The Rat Pack music rocks though :-)

I would say that when the £70's first came out was the best time in terms of money making without using blatant cheats.

Silvers/indys aliens/leps electro's were all huge when they first came out.

I'm a total piss head and waste money left right and centre on anything but still managed to stash a few grand away even living my stupid lifestyle!!

good times.

Quite enjoyerd 2009 but that;s only because I was Flukey McFluke for most of the year. Still, managed to buy myself a few things with my winnings which is rare enough, so yes I suppose 2009 is my best year

you would make between £3 and £5.50 every 8mins or so depending on % or which chip ie. skill spins or reel blasts and then you would always end on a quick one off the melons... very boring but cert money.... always a good start to the day...

Thats why I got banned from Hopton arcade. The owner said he phoned the police and they sat through the video watching me doing it for 2 or 3 hours!! Talk about a waste of the Police Force's time and money!!
