You didn't answer the question. Given the level of abuse I'd guess a squeaky bum amount.

I'll never forget sticking one of Sir Henry's in a treble to "pay the tax." It was running at Yarmouth in a four runner maiden and returned 1/7. No need to say what happened to the other two..

no twizzle but I have a few Independent bookmaker friends who had small string of shops and offered staff roughly the same.
Report SlippyBlue • November 17, 2014 7:29 PM GMT
Never underestimate the power of tipping shop staff. If you are onside they will bend the rules as much as they can for you. I spent a tenner today buying chocolates and other stuff for my two favourite shop girls today and I didn't even have a bet, I just popped in to watch a race. A tenner well spent.

Another fukwit. After 14 years you still get bum fluffers presuming because you post a fred about a hoss trainer jockey owner, that you soooooooo must have backed it...

"How much did you lose" and the unequivocal " Pocket talking" really get on my títs. In fact, any cretin who posts such comments should be made to walk around with a wanger on their nappers..

Oh, and another 2 blocked. That's 6 in the last month..
