Welcome to the April issue

Its been another hectic month in the betting exchange world with plenty to fill this newsletter. Its also been a busy month for Bet Exchange News with a record number of sign ups. If you are one of the readers who gets this forwarded to you, rather than subscribes in your own name, it would help us (and potential advertisers) to get a more accurate idea of numbers if you were to subscribe in your own name. It would also mean that you get the newsletter hot off the press rather than waiting until your colleague or friend gets round to forwarding it on to you. Please subscribe here It only takes seconds and we have a strictly observed privacy policy which you can read here.

This month I am delighted to announce the first of what I hope will be a small number of carefully selected strategic alliances for Bet Exchange News. Over the coming months we will be working closely with the specialist recruitment website www.Bettingjobs.com in a spirit of mutual promotion. See the article in this newsletter for full details.

In this month's issue our ex bookie turned betting exchange professional Cubone talks about Frankie Dettori's magnificent 7 and the impact that day had on the bookmaker Fred Done. He also shares the excellent story of his foray into the glamorous world of movies. I am currently in negotiations to bring additional writing talent on board. If you feel you may have a contribution to make please send me an e-mail.

Website update

Over the coming months the Bet Exchange News website will receive an overhaul. The final design is not yet complete, and if there is anything you would like to see on the site please let me know. One crucial aspect of the site will be a comprehensive links section. Please let me know about any sites or forums you use. If you are a webmaster and you would like to be considered for a link exchange please let me know.

Email contact

As this newsletter was being finalised I experienced a problem with my computer which means I have lost access, perhaps permanently to emails received over the past 2-3 weeks. If you have emailed me for the first time in this period, please can I ask you to get in touch again, as I currently have no way of contacting you.
