Here it is again. It seems to come around quicker than ever as I get older. Good day all round if you like your sporting events. We are in for a long day. :)) I must say that I echo Ken's sentiments...
Early this morning just about to set off for Teignmouth. Didn't post during the week due to being a bit busy and distracted. One of my sisters had a brain haemorrhage earlier in the week and had two...
Missed you post last Sunday Ken, although I didn't bother to have a bet anyway. The rain has stopped, hooray. Wouldn't have liked to be at Chester yesterday.....particularly behind Franny Norton in...
Beedin cold here this morning! Was hoping to finish off my planting up. It will have to wait a couple of days. Guineas weekend here again and the flat gets serious. Just hope my selections can be less...
What a morning, been blowing a gale up here. The final curtain for the National Hunt today and we should be thinking of summer...….More like November. Still, the weather doesn't put us off so I...
Morning punters. What a scorcher. Here's hoping that these can burn the turf up for me. Will do an ITV7 as well and 50pE/W Acca on it. Good luck. Momentofmadness @13/2 3.00 Muss. Trixster @4/1 3.15...
Well can you?
Imagine Douglas quoting this song. (On a different thread, sadly passed away like a lost soul)

Morning punters, and what a lovely one. The flat starts in earnest today and the Scottish National just about brings down the curtain on the jumps for another year. Small stakes and a single on the...
Sometime today NASA will be releasing images of Sagittarius A, the black hole at the centre of our Milky Way galaxy. (No Mars bar jokes please). Brilliant science to gather and correlate the info...
The oldies who listen to Johnnie Walker's Sunday slot. Great interview with John Lodge. Bassist and song writer with the Moody Blues. Down to earth bloke despite his talent....
Lovely morning again, so an early start and get weaving in the garden for an hour or so. Had my annual cardio vascular check up yesterday and all is good. Can put off the "wind operation" for another...
Bit cooler up here this morning, but spring is in the air. Bit of gardening and prep ready for planting out is done, spuds are in, and seed trays are progressing nicely. Let's see if I can "grow" a...
Well, it's that after the "Lord Mayor's Show" feeling again. Bit battered but still kicking back. Minimum stakes and no chasing today, will save my reserves for a dip into the Rugby match later....
Here we are again, the best NH meeting in the World bar non. Awful weather will not spoil the spectacle, a tough lot these NH lads and lassies. I have done the Placepot and Jackpot and put the first 4...
Blowing a gale up here, but bright and dry at least. Looks like being soft going, for the first couple of days at least, for the big meeting next week so need to keep an eye out for soft going...
Not a bad morning, a bit cooler but not too bad for that. Racing is now in the pre Cheltenham lull as everyone gears up for the big week, and Doncaster is a nono with small fields and the only race...
Morning punters and what a beauty. More like May than February up here. Probably snow when Cheltenham is on. It wouldn't be the first time. Didn't the 2008 meet have big snow? Keep my stakes low and...
