*A sparkly new tank is installed next to the roulette wheel. Before you enter, make sure you are suitable attired.
You have a large bag of gaming chips in your hand.*
Place your bets please. Place your bets.

*alicat enters the casino. She is dressed in a white lace dress she picked up in Mexico 11 years ago. On her feet are her favourite, lucky moccasins. Comfort always won out over style. She spots Coely at the craps table and hurries to join her.* I love fish. And I'm feeling really lucky today, Coely. BTW, you look ravishing today. Is that a new dress?

*wearing lucky shimmering silver/blue fin tight dress*
Good to see you alicat - that's a wonderful outfit you have in there too. We should be lucky here. Have a birthday bet.

I bet my life, WE will win today. We have my wishes to share.
IT's our turn NOW. The odds are in our favour.

*Dr J gets refused entry by casino security for being improperly attired. Rushes upstairs to the suite to change.*

*returns properly dressed and obtains a mountain of high value chips using Peta's H2G2 credit card*

Right, girls. What's your game? Roulette, Blackjack, Chemin de Fer, Poker or something else?

*Takes tray of champagne from passing waiter and passes it round*

*Slogs upstairs to change into a full length black dress, backless, sleeveless, and slit to above the knee. Also pulls on long black gloves and best virtual diamonds. (Hey, if I'm going to dream I may as well make it good!!) Also has a tiny brooch in the shape of a playing card. Returns to the Casino and buys chips for Alicat, and chips for herself. Heads for the Blackjack table.*

*Turns up just at the right time by the looks of it*

I'm not big on casinos but at least they have bars in them.......

Dr J! Another fine outfit. You really have style.
I'll watch you play Blackjack and bring you some luck.

Be careful, Dr. J. With Coely bringing you luck, you may become the richesr hippie in the world.

*DD walks into Casino frenh from the set of The Doughnuts are Not Enough*

Doorman: Hello Mr. ?

DD: Bond, James Bond. Give me a million franc line of credit.

~Kheldar, who just recently opened his eyes in the bus, realized no one was there and still looks bewildered~
Hey guys, why didn't anyone woke me up?? Good thing I had an extra tux in my luggage . What's the game?

Craps, I think.

Just make sure Monica Geller doesn't start shooting.

I think I'll join Linus at the bar for a little waking up first
~walks over to the bar and finds an empty seat~
Drinks anyone?

A drink sounds perfect. I'm not much into gambling, unless it's on Coely.

~Don Alfredo enters the casino. Dressed in a white Italian designed suit with a dark grey blouse. He walkt to the bar to get a whisky and goes to the nearest roulette table, with a large pile of chips.~
Zerogame please. ~Starts with a bet of thousand guilders.~

What are you having, Alicat?

*The bartender comes over to DD*

BT:One dry martini, shaken not stirred, sir.

DD: Thank you.

~leaving the roulette table with a good win. walks up to the bar.~ Drinks are on me guys and girls. Can I have another whisky please?
