Fruit Machines

[Ruairi]

Last night decided to go down to crosshaven with my friend to do a bit of gambling, nothing serious like, just 5 cent fruit machines.

As my friend was skint i got her a fiver worth of 5 centses, and we went on our separate machines.

she had never played them before wheras i'm a bit of a junkie when it comes to throwing my money away..

so i was watching my credits go up, and once i borke even i was happy enough..

all of a sudden her machine starts spitting out money at a furious rate.. and she's like cool, i've won...

then i looked at her machine... she had won 2400 5 cents...

120 quid...

of a 30 cent punt...

not exactly the euromillions but it's better than a kick in the head...

it was really funny as well cause we were only ther for like 5 minutes, and there was old ladies who had obviously been there for the past fortnight, and if looks could kill.. then they started muttering a bit too... so we decided to leave before we got a knitting needle into the eye or something.

luckily it was my money, and she split it with me, which was nice...

BTW i won a tenner on my machine :)
