Had my first icons in ages at the weekend!BFK wrote:I do like on electros how, it doesn't spin on until you've hit the start button. Nothing better than waiting a few seconds, bashing the start button, seeing the lights fly up and a nice tasty win spin in!! But it's the anticipation part I like, the will it? Won't it? moment!!
Thanks to this very post, I stood back, admired the £70 in the bank, enjoyed the anticipation for a moment...
Whats it going to be? £140? £164? £175? or even maybe the fabled £210?
...
and press!
Reels spin. Great.
It was probably for the best, since the local company had decided £130 was more than enough to float the thing with, and it was there on both.
I should also confess that I was lucky enough to see the icons immediately after screwing up a number runner for a tenner!

Me and my mate Tony had an attempted lock in in a shit hole called The Fox and Duck or some shit in Ham (near Richmond, South side of London). 4 against 2 it was, we were accused of 'doing a circuit'. I choke held one of the brave idiots and put him over the bar, my mate did some boxing practice, the bar woman was begging us to stop and the door never actually got locked as they were just a bunch of drunken weeds. I'm sure I've told this story before, it was mildly humorous.
I've also been 'mugged' in a pub in Harmondsworth Village called The Six Bells. For 'doing' a - the name escapes me, the clone of Empire Strikes back - basically the whole pub vs me, 2 blokes with me in a choke hold, threatening to cut me open if I ever come back, the £70 in the bank was 'theirs' as I had used a key (I never even had 1!). It was about 15 vs 1 on a Saturday afternoon after the football. I walked out, a few scratches around my neck and was offered a fight by 1 of the 2 who 'held' me, I just gave him a dirty look and thought, "How brave of you, you want to fight me in front of your 14 mates!"

I'm glad u thought of this post, can't beat a bit of fruit based banter!
It was a bittersweet moment of anticipation though. Possible huge bank weighed against the prospects of leaving alive! A modest IOU was a decent result, I think the barman will probably be getting a beer if he sorts this one out.

Had a Landlord if a shit-hole in Ashford being held back by two regulars demanding to be let go so he could "rip my mate's head off". After a few moments one of them tells us to go or he'll let go of him them "You've had it".
"Let him go!" says Manning from Margate.
"Right! Fine" says one, and let go.
The Landlord is lost now and just says "Just fuck off and don't come back" and back behind the bar.
Who looked the bigger cunt?
