I'm obviously so pleased and I think in the end Rebecca ran him quite close.  I've won a nice few quid and me and the missus are dancing round the room!

I've 'unblocked' everyone in the hope they can be graceful and say a litter 'well done, no hard feelings'.  If you don't ok fair enough not to worry.

To Squares, Bunnyman, Figgy, A1 Bionic, Deejayeric, and laughing gravy I hope we can start again from scratch next year and get along a little better.  I hope you all did ok and I wish you the best.

Thanks everyone for some great entertainment and there are a few true nice guys on this site.

I hope everyone out there at least got your BFH ...... Bus fare home!

See you next year and don't forget ............... you can't beat a bit of Louis1  Byeeee1 x

You're an annoying sod sometimes and I wish you could chill out a little, but you have an excellent record of picking the winner early
So congratulations and have a good Christmas.

Yeah good shout Lou can't argue you have a good record in these things. Think I rattled you a bit with Beccy but I bet you were thanking us Beccyites 30 seconds before the result was called...but not 30 seconds after [;)]

And I like our conversations...what does that say about me ShockedLaugh

hi aa - decent series in the end, although eliminations were a disappointment.  On three occassions I had 5 figure swings on the judge's votes.  In a normal year one would have come in, but this time they all lost.  Its always a shock when XF finshes and you realise that the Autumn and half the winter has gone and Christmas is virtually here.  Thanks for your good wishes, hope you had a great series and all the best to you, Mrs aa and toddler aa too.

Report Dizzy42 December 13, 2010 12:00 AM GMT
Say what you like about Lou, but what I do genuinely admire is that you steadfastly stick to your opinions throughout, come what may, and never waver for a minute.

Others may contradict you, disagree with you, get into spats with you or even abuse you, but you always continue to stay true to your own views - and I like that.

When some of us (myself included) swing one way then the other, hedging our bets, playing the percentages, you're always prepared to put your b*lls on the line.

As a result you've probably made a lot more cash than me - and some others on here too!

Good luck to you.  Keep playing the game, as it's good to have your input.

And Merry Christmas to you and the missus. Grin

Mmmm, caveat would be that sometimes discretion is the better part of valour....I didn't stick to my guns over Rebecca and ended up ok....taking a rigidly unwavering course is the way to the workhouse imo.

Correct to say that Lou got it right and his reasons were right..though he sensibly (again imo) hedged his bets re Rebecca. He may see it as lost cash with hindsight but events could have been so much different tonight.

A bird in the hand etc [;)]

yes I 'wasted' over £300 by backing Rebecca back but hindsight is a wonderful thing.  If my granny had balls ...............

Once One D went I couldn't lose with Rebecca making me even and Matt the big winner.  Thankfully I was right in the end and I'll stomach the £300 backbet

Quite right GB2.  My thoughts exactly.  I've always been a percentage player - and my wallet (and wife) is much happier that way! Grin

No not at all i didn't think of it as 'wasted'.  To be honest though when the result was due i was thinking "surely with all he's performances since tha start, about three which were real 'knockout', his 'winners song' which I thought was clearly the better of the two and all the massive poll leads ..... he must win it mustn't he" .................... luckily I was right.

Very true. But without the madness this forum would not be as good.

Having said that I most admire those who get the info for us. Also those who do neat succict summaries of the situation.
Don't want to start naming people coz I'll miss some-one brilliant out and it wouldn't be right.
