Geo V Posted 27 November 2007 Posted 27 November 2007 Well the Vegas trip only lasted a month! Within that time the three of us must have circulated a few hundred grand at least but me and my mate ended up $3000 up each and the third wheel, the one we fell out with and the one that has forced the holiday to be cut short (along with my broken ankle ) lost I kid you not, around £25,000!!! Vegas was and is a fantastic place and our pound got us some great value as we got just over two dollars for it and it goes along way! The problem with Vegas is that whilst there are plenty of shows on and loads to do you cant help but gamble in what they call casino`s, but what I call mini cities . They are fookin huge! Anyway I wont bore you with too many details but the facts are one of the lads ended up losing quite early on and went on what we call "tilt" where he was betting without thought and not concentrating on cards which was the whole reason we went over there. We had countless arguments with him and fell out and it got a bit too serious with blows exchanged a week or so ago and thats when we said "enoughs enough" and decided to come home. Two days ago kicked something in anger and the ankle swelled up (been broken twice before) and waking up today in good old blighty I went to the doctor to be told I have a buggered up ankle although that wasnt the medical term used. Anyway, it was a great holiday with superb food, people and especially women and I actually showed a profit although not the riches I had hoped for. Ive lost a mate out of it but then again I didn't know him as well as I thought but thats life. Back to the day to day grind herein and time to catch up with all things Leicester City as plenty seems to have happened over the last four or so weeks!! Ive only got about 200 threads to read through for now but if anyone would like to break it down for me then you are more than welcome! :scarf:
Webbo Posted 27 November 2007 Posted 27 November 2007 Well you live and learn, at least you had a good time for a while. Welcome back.

Flynny Posted 27 November 2007 Posted 27 November 2007 Good to have you back Geo. Are you holding onto your $3k profit in the hope the exchange rate recovers some, or is it already back to good old sterling?
Geo V Posted 27 November 2007 Author Posted 27 November 2007 back Geo.Seen how many votes you've got this year? Votes for what??!!!! Cheers for the welcome back lads. At times it was great but there were so many lows, especially when the knob was losing money and borrowing from us and calling home etc towards the end. Anyway, we now have Harry Redknapp MkII in place I see! I think its a great appointment and I`ll say so if I can find the thread

Your ankle should be fine. I ****ed mine up and destroyed my ankle ligaments in October and I missed the Barnsley and S****horpe games but I went to Sheffield United and Chelsea with my crutches. You'll be alright. You ain't missed much apart from Megson pissed off to the Hoofers and Ollie arrived.

It all went on pressies mate but at least I dont have to run around Oxford Street like a headless chicken trying to get everyones pressies on Decemeber the 23/24th as usual!
Joe. Posted 27 November 2007 Posted 27 November 2007 Nice to have you back Geo. I can only imagine your trip was a great experience, one that I wouldn't mind doing in later life. Also nice (and shocked!) to hear you came back with a profit!
Flynny Posted 27 November 2007 Posted 27 November 2007 It all went on pressies mate but at least I dont have to run around Oxford Street like a headless chicken trying to get everyones pressies on Decemeber the 23/24th as usual! You generous sod. I hope you bought yourself something.
Geo V Posted 27 November 2007 Author Posted 27 November 2007 You generous sod. I hope you bought yourself something. Mate Im Cypriot so have 40000 cousins, a god-daughter, godson and son! Well the last three were accurate but maybe I exaggerated the cousins I got myself some tasty stunna shades (Ive been educated by the local Vegas girls what they are but I think I look like Dame Edna Everage) and I got myself a few bits but generally, I think there dress sense isn't anywhere near as good as ours and didn't spend too much money on clothes as I`d rather shop over here!
