Testing, testing 1, 2, 3...

Well once again, it's been a while since I updated the blog. The "daily grind" really seems to be getting in the way of this gambling and bloggin lark at the moment. However, although the blog has been silent (those of you who have been watching carefully might have even seen the odd tumble weed rolling around!) there has been work going on in the background. I've been researching laying as well as taking another look at greyhound racing - there's nothing to report with regards to profits on these yet as both have resulted in breaking even.

I did stumble upon an interesting website: www.tipexchange.co.uk which seems quite interesting. There's both paid for and free tips on the site and the best thing about it is that the website keeps a tally of the individual tipsters overall profits so it's easy to look and see whose profitable and whose not (there seems to be some fairly profitable free tips being offered on there so it might be worth a closer look).

I've managed to do some matched betting today and brought in a profit of £17.00. My aim is to try and complete 1 bookie offer per week until I have more time on my hands and my mojo has returned. I'm trying to keep focused on what the money will go towards (my mortgage repayment) and i'm hoping that that will spur me on a bit. I've also been making a bit of cash by selling stuff on Ebay and through Amazon as i've recently felt driven to declutter my house (I hope i'm not going through the female 'nesting period'...i'm not ready for the pitter-patter of tiny feet yet! But for some reason any spare time I have has been on more homely things recently - soup making springs to mind!)

Anyway, time to sign off and cook tea...no soup today though!

Best of luck with your betting!

Daily profit: +£17.00

Long time no blogging

Why is it that when you find a definite way of making money from the bookies you suddenly have no time or inclination to get online and claim that cash? Is it just sods law or perhaps because there's not enough of a challenge involved? Who knows? Either way my gambling inspiration has been on a somewhat downward spiral for the last month and i've felt the need for a bit of a break...as you can probably tell from the lack of blog posts.

However, in an attempt to get my gambling-mojo back I took advantage of a matched bet that was too good to avoid and managed to net myself £35. I also have a potential profit in the pipeline for the Grand National on Saturday, but as i'm not one to count my chickens before they've hatched i'll keep it under my hat until i've got the cash in my hand.

Anyway, here's to more frequent betting posts for April. Best of luck with your betting!
