OMG Hetty, you’re right! I’ve never thought of Gransnet as social media before. Now I’ll have to think of something else.

Funny enough it was the casino where I’d once been a dealer.
I was there some years later with a big group of friends.
Me and my daughter came to the same conclusion that they were watering the spirits.
It got very heated and a security guard took me by the arm so I threw the drink at him.
