A bit of a cock-up when it comes to the final paragraph. Tipping you dealer is now illegal in the UK, and the paragraph should read:

---

In the US and France, it is virtually mandatory to tip your croupier after a big win. No such rules apply in the UK, thanks to the 1961 Betting Act, but politeness and friendliness are always appreciated, and will certainly see you welcomed to the table next time.

---

Thanks for that.

B

Yeah! I'm also getting this out today, my desperate apologies... so tired of being sick and taking care of sick people making me more sick.

:P

Isaac!

Actually.. one question... that sentence is not any different that the one in the article?

Isaac

The beginning's the same - the end has been changed.

B

Heh, and I call myself a sub editor :}

(wink)

Isaac.

Hah! When you fail to notice that someone has spelled 'friend' wrongly throughout the entire entry (**licks forefinger, strokes shirtfront**), then you can call yourself a bad Sub.

B

Hehe!

Well, we'll see.. we'll see.. I'm sure it'll all catch up with me :}

Anyways, your entries have *finally* been returned and I apologize again.

By the way, fantastic job :}

Isaac.

No need to apologise - you haven't had them that long.

One Sub had my Deep Purple entry for 13 weeks.

I won't mention names, but her name is still on the entry.

B

Oopsie - sorry, posting as my other half, there.

B

Er, B, small problem on the who's logged in front there

Yup. Although not as funny as Odo's comments to me regarding phone lines.

I'm saving them for blackmail purposes, but let's just say they were very, very blonde indeed.
