I can't believe that I have been out and about today in Peckham and ED in the only places that don't have betting shops. I now have a raging headache and can't be arsed to walk down to L.Lane.


I would have put my fiver on Imperial Commander, so if he wins I shall have a hissy fit.

Errr....idiots gambling question alert:


I went into my nearest turf accountant and placed my bets but have no idea what odds I actually got. Never bothered to find out what they were. Do I get the odds as they were at the time of my bet or the closing odds. Doesn't really make much difference since they're highly unlikely to win but you never know so.....help please....

You horsey people have ignited my interest in the sport though I'm sure it won't last. How can so many experts get it wrong though? So many favourites didn't win or even get close. If it's this difficult might you just as well invest in online bingo.????'s how did you manage to pick IC to win? Who did you listen to? Mick, what did that subscription do for you? Lost you money in seems. The experts don't seem very expert. Well done to Katie Walsh though.

All good points Declan.


I have to admit to losing a small/big fortune this week. Am very much poorer than I was when the week started.

Declan


I read the racing sections in the papers most days

I especially read bits on the big races

I look at what people are saying on Forums

When there's big favourites (in this case) I'll look for a decent alternative horse as prices will be big and an EW bet gives you some degree of insurance



But ultimately, I just look at what Mick Mack is doing and do something else.....


REAL ANSWER= LUCK...this time

I made it for you all by backing Kauto Star and Denman thus ensuring the BN fecal touch would anoint them both. If it wasn't for a Thousand kisses at 20's my Cheltenham could have been a disaster but Ms Walsh got me into ?20 profit for the four days.


Imperial Commander was a class act and I'm not sure KS would have won even if it didn't fall.


Well done Mr ????"s you called it from a week or so ago *doffs wad*

I know, kick a man when he's down. Come on, cheer up France should seal the Grand Slam and you'll have a good win.

    • Was planning to come on here to ask if anyone might know which celeb/royal came through Lordship Lane yesterday - was on my way up to Spurs, on bus at the roundabout by the EDT when some whistling police cyclists pulled the traffic to the side of the road to allow a biggish range rover to shoot past, on the way up towards Dog Kennel Hill. Could only make out two, maybe middle-aged, men in the front before it passed. Mildly hysterical lady on pavement was laughing/screeching with her friend that they were desperately trying to find out who it was. Had more reason to post after this lunchtime's experience. Had just got to bus stop opposite the M&S by the station when some mini cooper thing bombed through the traffic, swerving across to cut up another car to get up the hill, before two or three police cars followed about 20 seconds behind. Said mini cooper thing then reappeared coming the other way, beeping its horn to get other cars out the way before it bombed up what I think was Elsie Road, with police cars now on both sides of the road by Maxin trying to stop traffic getting in the way/half the speeding car. Bit more than I had bargained for when I set out/want in local area! Stay careful out there folks, this place is getting scarier...
    • The stop outside the chippy was still closed earlier today, although the barriers I saw yesterday have been removed, so no need for the closure.  The stop outside the church across the road is now uncovered and open
    • You all have different and conflicting interests though. It isn't necessarily appropriate for him to communicate with all of you at the same time about the same issues.    You're giving more away with each post as to how these difficulties probably arose. 
    • @CPR Dave He needs to communicate collectively with all of the beneficiaries.  That is the whole point of my original post.  Electronic communications are the best way of doing this, as I am doing now on this forum.  Apart from the gold digger who will get a six figure sum the rest of us are on four figures, and that is going down by the day. I'm offended by any suggestion that we are not behaving well.  What on earth do you mean?
