It is the best arcade game, I have spent many a day putting in long shifts on the 2p machines down Weston Super Mare

I used to love these at Blackpool arcades but I set the alarm off once trying to shake the machine to get a big pile of 2ps to drop...too scared to use them again after my mum and I were asked to leave!

When I was a kid my Grandmother used to nudge the machine with her arse to get the coins to drop and regularly set off the alarms... very embarrassing.

Indeed. You knew it was ridiculous as the things inside were worth sweet FA unless it was money notes.

ROFL! I use to try to knock it a bit, never hard. Also use to go around the other machines people had used, like a tramp, looking for 2p pieces. Also sometimes, despite nobody using the machine, some 2 pence pieces would sometimes drop. Always use to dash and grab them.

I don't mind Tipping Point, but mainly for the quiz side of it more than the tipping machine. I love to see how many questions I can get right, and quite often can't believe how thick some of the contestants on these shows come across. Must admit to going off Tipping Point now, they are repeating them at the moment same as they are repeating Pointless, they don't even say they are repeats, but the presenter Ben is offputting because his face tells you if they have answered the questions correctly or not long before the answers come up. He would make the worst Poker player ever
