just looking in b4 bed

it's early,
but i feel totally done in.
a bit of convo would be nice.
failing that.
i'm off.

Long nights, shit weather, murky changes in the same. Enough to fuck anyone off, Eric.

trouble is,
i'll be climbing the walls at 3.00. in the morning.
but feeling really tired right now.
might just stick around to watch an inplay mkt later.
we'll see.

Are you just football, Eric, or are you looking at other stuff?

I was actually thinking of watching some US Football later, partly because it is a game I can follow and do enjoy, but also for having a penny interest on the outcome as well. Fuck me, I sound like Ian Wright now "it's more fun if there's money on it".

i've been looking for an angle.
aren't we all.
just looking at,
at noting mkt reactions.

Market reactions fuck me off no end. At this time of year, to me that has the whiff of bent races on the sand. One horse books and bizarre drifters.

soccer inplay mate.

i keep trying to pinch a bean or three.

at the moment,
it's two steps forwards,
and three steps back.

The definition of a trader is someone who walks into the road to pick pennies up having assessed how far away the oncoming truck is. Thin times because of the weather or random results, Eric? I know November has been a roundly bad month for most.

i know one thing,
they've seemed fuckin slow today.
not like yesterday.
but then,
i suppose they're bigger mkts on a saturday.
and livelier.

Everyone's gone out to buy salt...

Not content with a week of subzeros, it rained. And then subzeroed. So now we have ice and freezing fog. Very fucking funny, so-called God

Right, back to the mallet. Fucking devil's own job what I'm doing at the minute but once it's done, it's done for life.

mmmmmmmmmmm,
not totally random,
i do have a plan,
sort of.
but the trick is to have some idea of what will happen when a game isn't going as one might have hoped.
and bert,
i only have bad months.
but i don't lose a lot,
i usually manage to hang on to most of my counters,
most of the time.

like somebody said to me once,
"it's not about winning,it's about not losing".

My old man always quotes my Grandad - "play to lose and win if you can". Similar ethic - don't chuck it about indiscriminately

Bathroom floor, Eric. Shit adhesive failed, removing, cleaning and then retiling.

well,
when i play,
it's a series of plays,
and trying to get it back with a little interest.
or at least,
get some back.

i don't really have the balls for it tbh.

Of the same school, Eric - I don't put the time into it that I'd need to were I to chuck serious money at it. Hence the EW spiel on the other thread.

Right, bathroom. Be good...

well,
that's me.

Might see you in the early hours, Eric. You never know with me...
