i lost 3 weeks of work (IT Technician, use my right hand quite a lot, not just for wanking) so i had every right to persue a claim...i was actually advised to do so by the police.

so there you go, fuckers, DONT help anyone who's getting the shit kicked out of them as you'll probably get turned over yourself.
that sounds a little better than your 1st version which sounded bad!

i had similar. stopped 2 CUNTS battering some weed on a bus. was upstairs at front. went and pretty much hauled them off and chucked them down the stairs. got off the bus(with 2 mates) and wee bit down the road said cunts appeared behind us. they started a fight and hit me i kicked the living shit out of one of them but broke my bastard hand in the process

I used to play fuities a lot when I had a source of good info .

Biggest win in a day (and I mean a 24 hour period - when something was about I'd batter arcades all day and service stations all night) was well over £1k, closer to £2k when the first section 16 scam came out. Similar amounts on a number of fiddes including emptiers for supercharged, joker poker, ready to rock, money laundy (hell I've even forgotten half the names now!) and god knows how many other methods for machines like Vamp It Up, the good old Vivids and Barcrest knockbacks and sparking/rodding scams for golden game, homers meltdown etc. I even learned to read lo-tec fruities like magic 7 and bar x 7even and could often turn a good profit of £500+ in an afternoon.

Shame I became heavily addicted to roulette and blew the lot and plenty more in a 9 month period of utter madness, leading to all sorts of loan sharks and shit looking for me, and a long stint at Gamblers Anonymous.

Haven't gambled for 2 years on 6th October after trying god knows how many times to quit, and I'm definately a better person for it.

Remember kids, gambling is for mugs! Its no coicidence the Ladbrokes is an anigram of broke lads, and that they can afford to have a shop on EVERY high street.

Fair play to you!

The only thing I've ever won is some stuff from a competition run by 'Striper' chews year ago. It as to write a slogan. God knows what I wrote but I was one of the winners. Turned out they had so few entries that they shared the 'prize fund' up between the winners. I got loads of sweets and a Striper headband and sweat band things... Rubbish!

yeah he bought a monte cosworth, the last focus Rs ever made, and his mates a lousy £1 shot of vodka each (yeah i know, twat) and headed off to malaysia where apparently you get FAR more for your money lol.

To be honest not a bad way to do it, as his bank account is now also home to a large variety of moths along with the 100k aswell.

i never play on the fruit machines, but in my old old job io used to play for the skittles team, turned up early one night and they had just plugged the machine in, put a quid in and on my first 10p i won the £75, adn the £75 reserve bank jackpot lol

had to carry around £150 of £1 coins till the end of the night lol

a round of drinks later and on my way home the clutch started slipping on my 205 gti... that cost £190 to get done, but i guess it cost me £40 so to too bad lol

one year when i was over in the bahamas , while the others were getting ready to go out, i popped over to the Casino to get a packet of fags from the machine on the wall but like everything in the states, it takes 1/4's so i changed up ten bux and got the said fags.
Anyway, on my way out i thought i would pop a couple of the 1/4's in one of the bandits. Well after a couple of goes all the lights flashed and it started to play music and shit then it dumped a fcuk of load of 1/4's in the below tray.
Went back to the others with every pack of fags the machine on the wall had in it and a couple big cups full of 1/4's as well.
