It's Sunday, I'm still in jetlagged mode from spending 8 hours a day standing up in 30 degree heat on a tin tray when the only 30 degree...

Yes - I know it's the abridged lyric but the full version is bigger than my Twitter character allowance. Long, hard day for everyone...

Most bookmakers bet on the grass at Ascot. The good people in the maintenance team spray paint hash marks in front of our pitches where...

As is becoming our festival tradition, the preamble is being written the night before so we have no idea how we've done. Regardless of...

I forgot the card machine. Again. 3rd time (un)lucky. For those that are up to date with our previous card machine travails, no I haven't...

Last year we didn't take enough to make this a workable meeting. Newcastle weren't playing that day until 8:00, if I remember rightly, so...

I used to play footy quite a lot in my younger days. I had a mate who played a lot too - great guy, my best man in fact, and, despite...
