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

    • https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/police-hunt-attack-south-london-b1247389.html Apologies if already posted on here - did look, couldn't find anything... 'The Metropolitan Police have appealed for help to find a man after a woman was seriously injured in an unprovoked attack in south London. The woman, in her 20s, was assaulted on Lordship Lane in East Dulwich at around 4.45pm on Monday August 25. She was treated by paramedics for injuries to her face and her jaw was broken in the attack. The victim was then taken to hospital and she continues to be supported by specialist officers. Officers are now searching for the suspect and are urging members of the public to come forward if they have information. He is described as a black man in his 30s or 40s with balding hair. He was wearing dark clothing during the attack. He is said to have approached the woman while she was by herself before swearing at her and then hitting her in the face. Detective constable Charlotte Kerr, who is leading the investigation, said: “We are working hard to find the person we believe is responsible for this senseless and unprovoked attack. “While we continue our enquiries, we hope our increased neighbourhood police presence will offer some reassurance to women and girls throughout the local area. “If you saw anything on Monday, 25 August – particularly between the junction of Lordship Lane and Chesterfield Grove at around 16:45hrs - do not hesitate to get in touch with us. “No matter how small you think your information is, it may be the key that unlocks our investigation.” Any witnesses or anyone who can help identify the suspect is asked to please contact the Met via 101, quoting 5018/25AUG or 01/7897951/25. Those who wish to share information anonymously can contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.'
    • I think, with schools, you really have to find the one that suits your child, rather than moving to a school catchment and then hoping it works. Mine both went to a high ranking and covetable school and had very different experiences - one loved it and the other was bullied and traumatised, and hated it. WE actually moved away because she couldn't walk around the area (yes - Dulwich area, so one of the local schools).
    • We live a little further down, on Pymers Mead. Traffic is terrible (always has been, but worse since the introduction of the Southwark LTNs). It's mainly the school drop -- traffic is noticeably lighter once the private schools break up  Have a few friends who live on that side of CR backing on to the train line. None has had any major complaints and the gardens on that stretch are fairly long, so you're not right on the line. Some have kids who go to Charter North -- its catchment defintely extends to Croxted Road. Other state secondaries nearby are Elmgreen and, of course, Kingsdale, although that doesn't have a catchment -- pure lottery
    • Hi. Does anyone know of a silver making jewellery workshop. I am trying to find something nice for my daughter’s 18th birthday.l for her and some friends but everything I find online is too pricey or can’t accommodate 10 girls. Thanks
