ROS now 1/8 on I think. Stephen Hendrey thinks it's as good as over before the final even starts.

Mick Mac takes over as holder of Top Tip....sorry Declan.


I hope some of you took it at 18s which is what it was when my golfer mate passed on the tip. :)

Only went and forgot to pick any horses for yesterday's race, but luckily managed a 25/1 winner with my jockey/trainer...much happier.

Don't forget there's another race today...and that includes you 'Argyle', whoever you are...

So it does. I'm just glad I'm still in the running after missing out on 2 of the 4 races. Somehow my jockey and trainer selections have kept me in with a shout. You must have had the winner of the last race, another big outsider...

No, from the website 'How to play'...


At the end of each Mini Series, you will be able to change your Jockeys and Trainers. Two changes are available in between each Mini Series making eight changes in total during the game


I think the first Mini Series ends at the end of May (last race 31st May), but I'm not 100% certain, just guessing as I haven't seen a definitive list. I'll have another look later...

Interesting stats on the PL season. Lawro did better than the bookies though it was close. If you bet ?1 on the bookies lowest odds for each of the 380 games you would have lost over ?28. They correctly predicted just over 52% of results which means they were wrong with almost half of them. What's the moral of the story?

I would join in if there was something like the Six Nations League. The good thing about the Telegraph is that it takes all the hard work out of the scoring/tables. The deadline for applications is Saturday. I'll post something in the Lions thread and see if it drums up any interest...

I've just set up a Super League, see the Lions thread for details. Argylites very welcome...

    • The solicitor is also the Executor. Big mistake, but my Aunt was very old, and this was the Covid years and shortly after so impossible to intervene and get a couple of close relatives to do this.  She had no children so this is the nephews and nieces. He is a single practitioner, and most at his age would have long since retired - there is a question over his competence Two letters have already gone essentially complaining - batted off and 'amusingly' one put the blame on us. There are five on our side, all speaking to each other, and ideally would work as a single point of contact.  But he has said that this is not allowed - we've all given approval to act on each others behalf. There are five on her late husband's side, who have not engaged with us despite the suggestion to work as a team, There is one other, who get's the lion's share, the typicical 'friend', but we are long since challenging the will. I would like to put another complaint together that he has not used modern collective communication (I expect that he is incapable) which had seriously delayed the execution of the will.   I know many in their 80s very adept with smart phones so that is not an ageist comment. The house has deteriorated very badly, with cold, damp and a serious leak.  PM me if you want to see the dreadful condition that it is now in. I would also question why if the five of us are happy to work together why all of us need to confirm in writing.            
    • Isn’t a five yearly electricity safety certificate one of the things the landlord must give for a legal tenancy?
    • Very sorry to hear this, but surely the landlord is responsible for fixing the electrics?  Surely they must be insured for things like this? I hope you get it all sorted out quickly.
    • The Pie House Co-op Deptford Emergency Crisis - Needs YOUR Help. This not-for-profit, worker-run, wheelchair accessible music and arts venue at 213-214 Edward Place SE8 5HD THE CRISIS: From Liv, Grace & Sonia, On Friday 31st October, there was a flash flood in Deptford, and we found ourselves with water pouring in through the lighting fixtures, damaging our electrics and sound system. We have been forced to close for one of the busiest weekends of the year, losing thousands of pounds in income, and are now having to fight our landlords for support with the leak. We are asking all our allies for support as we try and reignite the crowdfunder to reflect the new expensive work that needs to take place, and the gear we need to replace. Thank you in advance for your support so far, and your support going forward. If you have any ideas with getting media attention, or fundraising - please get in touch on [email protected] Even if you like myself have not previously visited this venue, supporting small not for profit venues are vital to the life blood of what 'commmunity' is all about. HOW YOU CAN HELP: 1) If you are an electrician and can offer to help for free or at cost, please email: [email protected] Your help would of course be acknowledged. 2) If you are a Sound Engineer and can offer to help for free or at cost, please email: [email protected] Your help would of course be acknowledged. 3) If you are a journalist or have connections with the local and wider media (Print, on line, TV, Radio, please email: [email protected] 4) 'Every Little Helps' even just £1 will make a difference, please support the crowd funder: https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/.../piehouse-workers-co-op...
