Copy. Paste into word document. Alter font. Copy and paste back into here. 1 min job !
With posts as big as yours I'd be writing them all in word to start with to avoid the tilting popup things!
Never seen you have a bet on cricket, is that just because there's not been much on through the day (england in asia, aussies at home etc mean a.m starts) or you just not bothered?
Loads coming up with 2 ashes series this year, you gonna be having a go?

Yeah I've lost many a post to the **** pop ups, luckily you don't get many in the morning when I tend to do my bigger posts.
I did use to write my posts in word, and copy them here, but soon as I hit the submit button it sent everything into one big block of text. It took forever editing it into paragraphs and sorting everything into lists like I do.
Cricket, im not the biggest fan to be honest, I couldn't watch a county test match, but I do watch Englands test matches, when it comes to England I'll watch anything including bowls.
I do like T20 and if sky are showing a match ill watch the odd game.
Really looking forward to the ashes, despite not being a fan of test cricket, I rate the ahses as one of my favourite events along with the Ryder cup and Mosconi cup.
As far as betting goes it would be pretty much like my rugby bet the other day I'd be going on odds rather than what I know, especially when it comes to team that aren't England. Will deffo be having a few ashes bets tho, and from your diary I know your a big cricket fan so if there's any bets you ever fancy put them in here and im bound to have a go
shuv i absolutely love reading this diary i really do and i dont like sounding like a doom and gloom merchant. but betting like this with the amount of bets you have each day i cant see it ending well. i hope im wrong bud but ive never known anyone who has this amount of bets a day be profitable

At the start I tended to agree with you engy but shuv is proving us wrong at the mo and long may it contnue.
He is doing better than I thought for the simple reason that unlike a lot of us he doesnt do many multiple bets and his staking plan is pretty good too.

Hi,
First Im glad your enjoying the diary, its doing much better than I expected it to do, I didnt know if anybody would be interested in it, and wasnt expecting as much interaction as what there has been so well pleased with that.
Thank you for your concern as well, at the start of the diary people voiced similar concerns, and I wasnt betting as much then, I did agree with them and did cut down for a couple of days (lol)
I've had 3 or 4 bad days in a row now it was bound to happen i said it would happen, but im still well in profit so for now im happy going along as I am, should all the profit go and i start eating into my own money then maybe ill take a look at things and cut back a little.
Once upon a time I wouldn't have stopped and I would have got into trouble, but I have kids now and i will only bet with money I can afford to lose.
The only money I really spend is going to the pub and gambling, im not a materialistic person, I have 1 pair of trainers and 1 pair of shoes, I get clothes for birthday and Christmas don't buy any all year round, I don't smoke I don't drive. So i just use the money I save from all of that to fund my little hobby.

Cheers father, been a testing few days, but tomorrow is another day and all theese 2nd place finishes will be turned into winners
I am really annoyed with myself, I went to the bookies just in time for the last race at wolves, I knew what you had picked as I backed this horse last time out, then commited the cardinal sin off gambling and changed my mind at the last minute, then watched it stroll home! fml!! Then backed 3-2 either team in the Edinburgh derby, obv. 0-0 draw haha
In Response to Re: Shuv's Punting Diary : lol oops I do appologise, I actually do enjoy watching it, and looking forward to 20 years time when ill be old enough to start playing it Posted by shuv
dont diss da bowls now*
lol at the old enough comment.
ma sister is just back from the world champs outdoors in australia where she won the world title for the fours and bronze in the triples at the grand old age of 26.
ive played for many a year myself to no standard but because its the only place where i live that sells beer before 10am. good enough excuse as any i suppose:)

Hi andybuck and the others who have come down on the side of bowls following shuv's comments and especially his ageism. LOL
I started at 40 and wished I had started earlier and tintin has hit the nail on the head with comments about his sister. Good eye hand coordination and starting at an early age means that you can go a long way in bowls. My son started at 15 , probably still a bit late and got to just below county standard before putting it on back burner. He stills plays socially but could have gone further.
Good sport for a youngster to take up, practice and have a chance of representing country. Odds certainly better than a lot of sports. The powers that be want young bowlers and encourage them no end otherwise shuv could be right, it will die as you dont meet many young bowlers.
