It was another of the annual horse killing events yesterday, otherwise known as the Grand National. We did a family sweepstake and all put a pound in and got 4 horse each, drawn at random from a hat.
We also all put in real bets at the local betting office. Just a few pounds here and there.
Luckily, after my horse Numbersixvalverde won, I netted the ?20 family sweepstake and my wife won ?24 from her ?2 bet at 11/1 odds.
Sweet.
Now, what shall I spend my ?20 on? Any ideas?

EDIT: Just went and got FIFA06 for my 360 from the Birmingham branch of CEX. Only ?28 second hand!
