Had a "winner" today at Chepstow. First race on BBC, I backed a horse..... dont remember its name but it was a dead heat ... so got half the odds and won some money.


Put most of the winnings on the runner up in the Welsh National... no joy.



Is anyone else going to post on this thread?

30 October


Backed Celtic at 3/1 when 12 points behind - looking good now.


Man United not too shabby either. Backed them at 3.38 on betfair.


You can't keep good teams down.

The Celtic bet is looking good now. Did discuss this with Quids shortly after putting the money on and the potential 10 points on possible administration was a little bonus in my thinking that has materialised. But basically I felt despite the 12 point disadvantage, that Celtic were the better team. So it proved.

Early 2010 post here.

But I have backed Burtonport for Gold Cup and National a few months ago. Not sure why but he is now a considered outsider for both after chasing Long Run home yesterday albeit with 10 lbs help. Have >60-1 on both so look forward to whichever he takes part in.

Went on my Betfiar account to look at the golf odds and found some extra money - I'd forgotten I'd had an EW on a 32 outsider Something Chad on the last day at Cheltenham and it placed :))


Sooooo, going to waste it on golf but no chance to lay as I'm away on an Easter brreak, so.


So standard Each Way bets on Steve stricker - 60s

Watney (38ish)


and Probably and EW lump on Luke Donald as he's consistent enough to be a good shout for a money back via a top 5 place but also reasonable value (or was when I looked) for a win as he's not got a Major yet

      The Telegraph and the other right wing media, do they hate Britain?

      By beansprout · Posted

      Point is.. top two have quit.. BBC is now what? From being well respected world wide.. not only for news, programs, no idea about pod casts.. Only thing we as a country do well currently is broadcast remembrance service…. Lets face it.. only country that I know of who can release wrong people from jail.. one gave himself up if news is to believed and the other is where? Only country I know of who actually pay people to leave, flights etc and they are back in country .. all heard via Radio 4…

      It doesn't matter what channel it was on, how pernicious the subject is and when it happened. Mis-representing the truth in broadcast is not only morally wrong, it's against the OFCOM code of ethics.  Everyone in the industry is trained in how not to do it, most are made to take the BBC's own 'Safeguarding the Trust' course, even if they aren't making BBC programmes.  There wasn't much fuss at the time, because no one knew about it.  "Unless you hate Britain, hate liberals, hate the BBC, want a divided country, support the most powerful person in the world despite his many failings". What the programme makers personally think or feel should never affect how they tell a story; to do so is deeply unprofessional and a sackable offence.  It's the job of the BBC and of all programming to inform viewers of the facts and let them make up their own minds. Even in campaigning documentaries.

      Hadn't realised that the Panorama programme that people are up in arms about was over a year ago.  There wasn't much fuss at the time so why drag it up.  Unless you hate Britain, hate liberals, hate the BBC, want a divided country, support the most powerful person in the world despite his many failings. The programme was clumsy, but the vast majority of us know that Trump had an influence.  So the Telegraph has played into his hands.

      One of our local councillors has hit the big time

      I tried a Lime bike once, too heavy and bulky for me but I understand that many really like them.  And very much support the concept.
