Spread betting - any gurus ?

The only thing I know is that it's a safe bet that the side with the spread on will land face down. Hope that helps ;-)

Ah, but - what if you strap it, spread up, to the back of a cat?! ;-)

(as explained more fully somewhere in my site below)

you throw it out the window, whereupon it attaches itself to a passing soft-sided truck, disappears into the wild blue yonder and the theories are yet unproven.

Putrid poetry, dismal doggerel, extrava-stanzas...

Ok, now you're messing with my head. It's like contemplating infinity, only with fewer stars and more Marmite.

No, it's really quite simple. The cat will land feet down. The toast will therefore not land at all, so the question of which side down it lands is irrelevant.

Depends on how big the slice is, how much Marmite you use, how big the cat is, whether the cat suffers a heart attack on the way down, and -- most importantly -- whether we're talking physics, metaphysics, or just complex bollox. Either way I'm willing to bet the OP's not learning much :-)

a voice of sanity when all around is marmite !
