Indeedy! It is a far better meet than Ascot, I love a warm well cut coat and co-ordinating enormous brimmed hat. That reminds me, I must buy some new leather gloves. Far too many people turn up for Ascot in stretch white limousines wearing cheap clingy acrylic dresses displaying the line of their inadequate underwear if you ask me...

Haven't been for about 13 years. That was a fab day out - met a couple of Millwall players on the train whom we'd seen score the night before. Think I was more excited by them than the gees gees who I always feel sorry for on that uphill finish. Not sure my liver could hack Cheltenham any more.

Well I use Betfair a lot and you can 'lay' on there so effectively become a bookie - but I haven't the balls or the bankroll to do it professionally! I made ?100 last year....hardly gonna pay the rent is it!!! but I enjoy it immensley and im also in the 5% of Betfair customers who actually make a profit!



- for what's its worth I put my money on Kauto Star for the Gold Cup a fair time ago and got better than the just above 'evens' generally available now. I think he'll walk it.....

  • 3 weeks later...
I had Master Minded yesterday so have ridden into profit with Kauto Star leading my hopes for it being a truly excellent week. Just trying to work out how to leave work and go to the pub at 3.30 for what should be a fantastic race....Mark, I did a bit better than that on the exchanges after KS went out follwing the injury scare so got 3s...

With some mates in the pub. Took the afternoon off for the racing. Nenuphar collonges won the 2.50.


My mate had lost all but ?8 before the 3.30 so I suggested I pick his last horse. I went for Neptune collonges due to the other collonges winning the last race. He won

?30. I picked the next horse and he won ?168!!! I am feeling lucky :))

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
