Proverbs about needles and haystacks spring to mind

Nadal won me around £13 by winning the Hamburg masters and I fancied a repeat of this with the French Open, but the odds seem to only be 1.73 - it's almost worth taking the field (i.e. backing Nadal to lose) at 1.75 - in any case, I can't make my mind up and will stay out of that one.

Took a look at the Crewe by-election. CON are now 1.13 - again, not really generous enough odds to come in.

Terrorism Bill is at 1.16 to go through. This is the 28 into 42 days Bill. I'm not really sure how fair a reflection of the real world those odds are. 5.2 for it not to go through.

England are now 11 to win the 1st Test. That's probably worth a tiny £2 position. The draw is at 1.1 which is again, too low to be worthwhile.

My advice is therefore a minimum £2 bet on England to win the First Test. It's not that likely to happen, but you'll be able to dine out on the winnings.
