Haha yeah I know what you mean, I’m sure some of them could beat the top gear lap time in their bus!
It happens quite alot that people stumble due to drivers braking and a claim goes in…..one of my biggest fears!
I’m not sure if I’d have to pay the money back or not if I got sacked but being unemployed isn’t really an option either! That’s why I tried to consolidate my debt so I could maybe pick up some low paying work until I got something better!
I’m sure if you were sacked then your employer would still say you a liable for the costs. If I was in your shoes I would either get a DRO and clear of all of my debts or go to the GP and get signed off, and then look for another job immedietely. If you are not eligible for SSP from work, then you can get it from UC with an advanced payment to keep you going. If you call or email a few employment agencies in your area you would be surprised that they generally have a lot of ongoing work in a variety of places which might suit you.
I vowed that I wouldn’t go down the bankruptcy route or DMP (I did look into it last year)….it’s my debt and I want to pay it back. Plus my family don’t know and I don’t want to blacklist them for years!
I can’t go on the sick as I would only get statutory sick pay, I’ve not been there long enough to get paid while on the sick!
Green….I just don’t like the pressure of driving to a tight timetable, I like to make sure I’m being safe especially being new!
I understand, although the employer won’t give SSP, you would get Universal Credit payments until you were cleared to work again or found another job. Can you not find another job and leave it?
Also, the Debt Relief Order is not real bankruptcy. I believe its a type of insolvency, it only lasts one year and it won’t affect your family at all. You can select what debts to enter in to the DRO. It might be worth researching if you do decide to leave the Bus Driver training, at least you can clear the cost of the training perhaps. It was good that you followed an ambition of yours and kudos for doing it. Not everything works out as you expect sometimes but I hope your next move is a positive and fulfulling one!
I think its fine as long as you make it clear in the description, take lots of photos clearly showing its conditon and always send by tracked mail. Also, if you are worried, impose a minimum feedback limit on your item. Say “no buyers under 150-200 feedback (100%)” or something along those lines. It really helps seperate the chancers from the legitimate buyers!
A consolodation loan for what? To pay the training costs? Don’t bother. Get down to the GP and tell them its depressing you and he could sign you off it on medical grounds and you won’t be liable for anything.
If that fails, get a DRO and clean all your debts for a mere £90 fee at the Citizens Advice Bureau.
Just to add, they can’t draw blood from a stone or make you feel trapped in something you don’t want to do. Long story short, tell them to shove it up their a*se.
1Show him how to get Siri to read his texts to him or get him to copy and paste his texts into a text to speech software?
Don’t do this pub thing it’s too risky. You live there. It’s your local. I don’t trust a very small minority.
I agree with this too and your other post haz.
I made a comment about being careful about the place being rammed with ‘takers’… with this I meant people who were no genuine fans just turning up for the alcohol and not actually being a fan of the bandit or a genuine member of this forum eg the people trying to constantly bash Steve with this affiliation shit or the go fund me phone/bike type…
BUT from making that comment I was then called a Taker, and a Jaffa (whatever that is) because I’ve accepted a couple of very kind offers of help with my little one in the past..
I won’t have anyone ridicule me or come at me for asking advice about my girl and that fact a couple of people have done that to me.. I’m now afraid to write anything on here!
And for the record I’m not just being an emotional women.. I’d ALWAYS stand up for myself and my girl no matter who it was but those comments towards me really upset me.
Hi thisgirl 2019 I’ve just had to go back and read the threads again where the word Jaffa was used and I had commented below it, in my mind the insult from Stevie was not directed towards you but to the poster who commented about you which was under the belt.
A jaffa is an insult towards a males genitalia, like the Jaffa orange Seedless lol
it was common insult used regularly many moons ago, which is why I commented
I hope this clears it up for you and please don’t think my comment was in any way directed towards yourself or your post.
I was eating a jaffa cake just as I read about “Jaffa” and had some disturbing mental images, thanks ???
1I think you are right to be honest.
Having an open party for anyone to attend with a free bar is asking for trouble. Not even mentioning that its the Bandits local pub so he would not want to bring a negative situation amoungst the landlord when he attends there regularly!
I would love to go to meet the bandit and members of the community but I don’t drink and I don’t know if I would be in the country when it happens.
Would it not be wiser to just invite members of the forum who have made a meaningful and valid contribution to the community and perhaps allow them to bring a +1. At least that way I think most people will behave themselves and you could trust that they would bring someone with them who will also behave and enjoy the night.
people who think over 300 spins without a bonus on a game where the bonus odds are 1 in 450 is cause to moan. (FYI my record on Magic Mirror is 4,130 spins without a bonus, then a 12 x bonus. I dont moan!)
people who think as they didnt get a bonus they should get some compensation from people who have.
people who believe gambling and online casinos are rigged, even when given facts and pure statistical evidence they arent as they dont need to be for people to lose.
The Bandit when he arrogantly hits back to back to fucking BACK Gold pots for 500 quid on Pure Gold and holds his hands aloft like he is some kind of god damn genius.
Oh – And Wild Antics. That game just… get to fuck
Hahaha I would not even play a game it I thought it could take that many spins to get a bonus ?
all thats been mentoned but my worst has to be the music on genie dunno about anyone else but at the start and end of the tune .DA DA DA DA DAT to me sounds like GENIE FUCKIIN JACKPOT ha ha its so bad i have to turn the sound of .
My genie jackpot days are over so I swerved this one luckily haha
i think a return rather than a win..pet peeve ..so called win is less than the bet…deposit and play gone in 10 mins
There should be a law passed that if your return is less than your stake then it must say loss rather than win!
Hitting more than 3 scatters on games where extra scatters do bugger all really boils my piss.
Hahaha if I discovered this I would bin the game for being so cheeky.
Bonanza bangs in GOL first 3 reels , then nothing . Horrible
Typical BTG driving us insane.
The video tomorrow hinges on how pissed i get tonight at the 50th birthday party i am going to lol I am hoping to be back at mine tomorrow no later than 12 which would usually mean the video going live around 7:30 – 8pm, that is if it goes swimmingly though, if the bonuses take a stupid long time to arrive, it may well be later!
Happy 50th Steve! Enjoy your party???
P.s ?? I’m joking don’t ban me please haha
Playing the same game as two or three others (happens a lot in my bookies with Eye of Horus & Fishing Frenzey ) when they’re all getting feature after feature while you’re standing there getting rinsed on your machine.
Roll on April 1st and hopefully you won’t experience it again haha
11 reds/odds in a row on roulette. You try flipping that coin. 7 red cards in a row on slot gamble. Try dealing that. Do it often. Both not impossible, but so often….
I see that all the time too. The chances are way too slim to see it happen that often.
1. Dead spins in a bonus
2. Retrigger teases in the bonus that are basically just dead spins
3. Slots where you have to choose some symbol for number of bonus spins / multiplyer etc …. it’s all pre determined just cut the bullshit and get on with it
4. Slots seem to know when your running out of money and wait until you have changed your stake to 60p to use up the last of your money and roll in a bonus after doing bugger all on £2 spins
5. The bonanza music
Number 4 happened to be earlier. Lowered it to my last 40p on centurion. It rolled a bonus. Got Prizes on Parade and it hit a few low ones then a x20 and then a x50 collect. Rigged or what haha
BTG Games piss me off when they make a 5x win look like a fucking 250x win on the screen. Fucking drives me crazy. Making a big song and dance over a shitty win.
Oh yeah and fucking Bonanza!
I know the the feeling. It seems almost sarcastic that it makes a big fuss over a small win.
I get kinda pissed off at ‘wins’ that are less than the stake. Or when you fill the screen of a symbol after missing reel 1 of course .
They ironically count as “wins” too just to piss you off more.
There should be a rule of instead of it being a win it says the amount you lost on the spin haha
£2 spin – £0.80 return = £1.20 loss (shown on the screen instead of “win”)
Games on FOBT’s that make make a loud noise and say “BIG WIN” for a fecking £4 win.
LOL – try Rise of Anubis on 20p, An enormous colourful Graphic flashes up and a sign with BIG WIN in letters 12 inches high appears as you collect you £4.80
Centurion slot on £2 where the Roman twat pops out of the bushes with a big win sign and you think YES !!! Then colllect your £20 to cut the loss of the £100 you put in to get it.
and don’t even start me of on the machines ringing and shaking I the entire room knows you have won £50.
?? I can definitely relate to the Centurion one. He says “big won” and only hits the first three wheels for something like £40ish on £2 stake, its so annoying. Reelus Maximum saved me yesterday when I was in tilt. Gave me 7 x 5 of a kind Jacks for £240 at the last moment. Phew ??
I had a DHV bonus last night, saved it and decided to do quickly do a few things and came back to it and it paid £28. Does this mean if I had chose another time to play the bonus I could have won more or less?
Only BTG can definitively answer that question, but yes my understanding is that DHV and Bonanza bonus rounds, each spin is random. Not that this means anything; you’d have just as much a chance of winning less had you played it a different time as winning more, but it would mean your outcome would have been different in some way.
Thanks for the explanation. Damn, I think I might have been luckier if I chose a different time haha
1) I think the slots tease far to much especially the ones with character animation.
2) The rounding off the balance thing I can relate to its a nightmare
3) The ones that make a big fuss over a 15x win
4) The jackpot games that will let you get two of each pot then your next picks are all the mini pot
5) Slots that take far to long to bonus
6) Bonuses that pay very little or zero what’s the point it just a long way of giving you a small win you could get with a 5 of a kind low symbols.
Does anyone else look at the bonus and look at the amount spins it awards you and say well its gave me £xxx of spins for free. Do the games count that or is it just based on your stake x whatever the systems decides your getting?
The endless teasing is the worst, especially when it gets to the point where its happening almost 5+ in a row with no bonus.
My pet peves when I gambled… I’ve stopped since December 2018….
1. Getting a decent bonus with a high multiply and winning nothing.. Like on the Casino Pharoes Fortune with like 18 spins and a x4/x5 paying like 20x.. Should be minimum 100x
2. Staff in casinos who get you the coffee but hide a lot.
3. Managers in general
4. When lucky lady charm is not lucky…. Fucking Biatch… Opps sorry. Yeah I’m a charmer Not.
5. I hate these new systems in the casino where you use your Points card for play instead of printing the tickets or cash. I feel like there following/Watching your play
6. 6am when they close
They definitely hide when its time to produce some free coffee ?. And luckily the Casinos here in Brighton never close ?
