Had a busy day. Been to a Christening, and a few folks back after for a little scoop. Had no plans to post a tune but am now settled down and though.....how great to see all the youngsters and their...
Morning, no footie today so the racing will have to be the afternoon entertainment. Luckily there is some nice racing with the fillies races being prominent. I have picked just 4 to get on early but...
The Mod movement of the 60s was credited with bringing into the UK, through the clubs and "discos" the R&B sounds and modern bands and artists such as Who and Chris Farlow. There was however a less...
Morning "punters". Well the Ayr "Gold Cup" has been moved to Haydock today at 3.15. Shame it cannot be the same race on that track but never mind a good race regardless. Plus of course the...
WARNING! This thread contains nuts, seeds and attitude. Punk. I love some of it and these are on my Iplayer. I had 3 teenage brothers through these times and they drove me mad, or so I thought then....
Ayr Gold Cup off for the first time ever. They have had some rain in Scotland in the last few weeks mind. Shame. I wonder if it will be run and where? Not having much luck since I started posting my...
Just for fun. I got a nerdy 35/35 and most people should get very close to that. Tip. No 19 is probably the one that will catch you out. I hovered over the wrong answer until I remembered who it was....
Just a few tunes that I love. Hard to find the versions that I wanted but These are pretty near.

Hi Ken, missed your Thursday post. Did have a scan through Thurs & Fri card, but gave it a swerve. Have picked a bet for today though. I have been to today's Chester meet many times, usually shirt...
Last night I happened across a thread that touched on the matter of drummers and bass guitarists. It got me thinking and I have found a few that I have in my collection. It is not meant to be in any...
If it is raining, everywhere else, in the same way it has been here the horses will need canoes not shoes on their hooves. Either that or the jockeys could perhaps water ski behind them. Still have a...
A rare Friday punt today. Some good racing, and I had a little tax rebate this morning so decided to push my luck. Englishman @13/2 3:00 Haydock Spirit Of The Vale @4/1 4:00 Newcastle Always Resolute...
A true Genius. I was thinking of posting on a different theme, but heard safnoon that Walter Becker had passed away. I had grown up a bit in the 70s and heard these. Blew me away. Still does. R.I.P...
For all you missing your Footie fix I can recommend the All Ireland Hurling Final from Croke Park. Galway play Waterford, and if it is anything like previous finals it will be manic. These lads go at...
On Sky Prem tonight? Harry Potter for grown ups. We don't watch many films together but had a bit of a laugh and gargle whilst that was on. Eddie Redmayne hamming it up and good performance from Dan...
Lovely morning, and the racing cards have a definite "end of season" look about them. Just a small punt today spread across three cards. 4 races in 35 minutes so a no nonsense bet. Good luck if you...
We were younger and although at the time me and my contemporaries were more into R&B and the new wave of protest and blues influenced British bands we were also hearing some of these tunes. We...
