I have a problem

The thing is, after England lost their 6th consecutive ODI to Australia, I went down to the bookie's and put £100 on England winning their next three consecutive ODIs against Oz, Sri Lanka and SA respectively. I'm going to pick up my winnings tomorrow and that's when the problem starts.
I don't know whether to just buy a yacht now, or else to put all the money on England winning their next three ODIs so that I can buy Microsoft instead. Any advice?

You little liar...

Isn't it odd that you hear of these bets after the event.

'I have a problem'

So what happened to all your other problems?

Um, I didn't expect anyone to think I was being serious. I may be an optimist but even I wouldn't have risked that particular punt.

To be fair to Taipan, it is difficult to recognise sarcasm when you are gasping for air

And what is your excuse Woody?

Never needed one

I was hoping for a gory description of an embarrassing medical condition, what a let down.

How times change - you could buy Microsoft for about £100 now.

Should've played the long game.

I never had you down as a necromancer, Dellboy.

Shame on you.

I'm a lover not a fighter. There's nothing I won't romance.

It's called threasurrection, f*ckwads.

I thought Taipsy was forever getting NSR'd.
