I much prefer the shop now like, I spend less, and I generally seem to win more often (that's probably co-incidence).
I wish sometimes I had the nads to ask the odds, when I stick £1 or 50p on 5 or 6 dead cert teams and get the slip back revealing a win of between £2-3 and I wish I'd never bothered, that's pretty annoying, and quite embarrassing going into the shop just to collect that fucking tiny sum of money.
