They're hunting in packs now? LOL
Sorry, just back from America and EVERY time I said "just popping out for a
fag" SOMEONE looked at me funny! I mean EVERY TIME - you can really start
to screw with their heads after a bit of practice... "Hey buddy, can I bum
a fag, I'm getting really desperate" etc. etc.
As for the coins, they're 50p pieces. When I've finished cleaning up the
video (probably a couple of weeks), remind me and I will upload a couple of
frames of big silver shiny coins. The audio also suggests that they are
new 50p pieces, as they have that "cheap alloy" sound about them.
I'm not a gambling man, so I am only guessing here. Four 50p's feels like
a bigger win than two one-pound coins. Perhaps the bookies are on to this
psychology-of-winning thing as well ;)
