Getting a free bet on the horses from Bob's lot and putting it all on a horse called Indy Five purely because for a while many years ago I went out with a rather lovely girl called Indy. And the thing only led all the way round to finish ten lengths clear (the horse, not the girl). Thank you, bobs lot
I had the favourite in that race - came nowhere. Almost went with that one as think was boosted to 7/2
But I have balance of 40 odd quid from their football free bets last 2 weeks and have 6 of Peanuts grand national tips already booked in from free bet winnings.
You might need practice getting that right. Anyway, not far from me is an excellent restaurant called Shellfish Cow. Food theme is in the name. Last week a nibble on the blackboard was popple cockporn, which turned out to be individual cockles deep fried in batter with a sliver of cornichon in each one. Served with aioli. Heavenly! And the main courses were even better.

I tend to hang up after a few minutes, or try and use the "chat" function.
Last day at work, before departing Monday evening for a very delayed cruise (21/2 years) from Venice to Barcelona. First of 4 this year, 3 delayed because of Covid.
Our daughter’s at her friends all day and managed to persuade my wife to join me in a roof down drive out in my classic to Otford. Stopped, had tea and watched a spitfire fly past a couple of times then had a leisurely drive home in the sun. Did a bit of gardening when I got home and am just about to crack open a beer.
Wondering idly what to have for breakfast on this sunny Sunday morning then finding a cream and jam doughnut that I'd forgotten about in the fridge, still in date.

Just offered to buy Twitter for 40-odd billion. Says if they say no, he'll sell all of his shares.
