A TRAGEDY
I am gutted, as footballers would say. Paul the psychic octopus, who correctly guessed the outcome of 8 games in the recent football World Cup, including all of Germany's wins and eventual defeat, has died aged 2. Which is apparently a fair age for an octopus.
I had been counting on the prophetic cephalopod to help me bet during the European Championships in 2012. Now I'll have to find someone - or something - else.

I find it difficult to see you as a betting man, but I suppose Bet Fair and web access can tempt many a newcomer to the delights of spread betting.
ReplyDeleteI have one acquaintance, A coold silent Swede, who lives and supports his growing family entirely by gambling. Mostly it is professional poker but I have seen him score some clever sports bets as well.
