I couldnt even get through the barriers at London Paddington yesterday without getting sucked in by their advertising. I hate it.
Watching the football…get a £20 free bet for Cheltenham, when you bet in play on this match now. (that wasnt even at half time, it was on the hoarding).
My CG comes from a poor area, linked to horse racing, literally every conversation I have had with someone from there, Cheltenham has been mentioned.
Adverts for smoking were banned many moons ago, there are no where near the number of adverts for alcohol but gambling is just everywhere!
It must be so tough for those trying not to gamble at the minute, it is hard to get it out of your mind enough without it being shoved in your face.
Everytime i see something from Cheltenham, my heart just sinks. For others, i can only imagine it is like continuous itches they cant scratch.
I know I have lost my CG to Cheltenham this week… I’m sure I’ll have to assess the damage at the weekend…
And the brilliance of Gold Cup and Paddy’s Day on Friday…
