Getting tough to think of titles, May just start putting the date in, LOL.

Football.

A trade on the O/U 2.5 and 3.5 in the Leeds v Milwall game was the sum total of my football trading today.

Tennis.

I was involved in 4 matches today most of them straight forward except for the Azarenka v Szavay match. Classic example of WTA. I joined it with them a set each, Azarenka bandaged up for some reason and Szavay storming away with it. Got in and out for 1 trade and as she was doing so well 5-0 30-0 I decided to go in for another. After backing it's 40-0 and 3 game points, Azarenka then brings it back to 40-40 and breaks her. She then holds and the next Szavay serve goes to 40-40 again, we then saw 7 deuces before Szavay finally managed to put it to bed. In the midst of all this WTA carnage I traded out for a 1 tick loss, which halved my original green on it as I could see another WTA super comeback. It would not have suprised me in the slightest to have seen it go 7-6 in Azarenkas favour. Have to be careful on WTA matches.LOL!.


7 trades today , one of them a loss but mitigated by the fact that I already had green on that market from a previous trade, 8% rise in bank. Long may it continue.

The motorbike saga continues. I was able to get another bolt into the manifold without drilling or tapping so I was quite chuffed. Of course I mititgated this stroke of fortune by shearing off one of the rear exhaust studs. So bike will have to come back in to the 'garage' and I'll have to take apart the rear end again to see what I have to work with. If any of the stud is protruding I should be able to get it out. If it's flush with the manifold, then it's engine out and dissasembly for drilling as there is sod all clearance for drilling in situ. Bucketloads more work, more time , more hassle. I wish I was rich and could just shove it at a mechanic and say 'make better'. I never wanted to become a mechanic, plasterer, decorator, electrician, bicycle mechanic, plumber or any of the other things I've had to learn to do because I can't afford to pay someone to do it for me, in a fraction of the time with a fraction of the hassle. Never mind.

Keep it green everybody.
