Never had the gambling vice, but did regularly enjoy a night at the dogs. Quite civilised with food, drink and a girl comes round to take your bet from the tote. If you want seedy you pop down to the terrace and lay one on with 'Onest 'Arry 'Odges (it had aitches on his bag) just to watch his tic tac man.
Only tip at the dogs? Bet on the dog from Ireland with no previous history or form. Always one or two at the race night. Never came out of a night with more than I went in, but nearly always covered the cost of food and drink
