Default What odds am I offered?

Just replaced the water pump seals, inner clutch gasket and outer clutch o-ring, all of which were leaking like sieves. Chances that none of them will do tomorrow? I'm thinking somwhere between slim and none...

Ñone of it Andy mate. I think you could be knocking Old Squiders off his lofty perch when you report what a resounding success this exercise proved to be.

I got offered 5000-1 but I didn't take it. I'm not a gambler you see

Put your money where your mouth is if you're so sure I bet you one scottish pound at least one leaks by the end of the week.

Approximately one of ours to ten of yours Check out the price of a Nack Nicklaus scottish fiver if you don't believe me

So far, it appears not to be made out of sieves. I forgot I'd turne the scottoiler up to full to get a good quick coating on, so it made a fairly big puddle of chain fling Smells of hot oil, but doesn't seem to be actually dropping any.
