December 22, 2019 at 19:22 #1477874Modesty Nathan prevents me from making any comment or opinion but it is very satisfying anyone should find such drivel of interest.
Racing down there will continue overnight (Monday) even though I cannot find any domestic meetings.
My OUTSIDER will only be played at a 1/4 stake and then split each way: –
ARACABESSA – Tamworth Race 7 @ 20/1 SkyBet
QUADDIE (single selections): –
DISSENTER – Tamworth Race 5 @ 13/10
KIN NEKO – Wangaratta Race 5 @ 6/4 . . . . . . . ABD
CASHED UP – Wangaratta Race 6 @ 27/10 . . . . . ABDMIXED SYSTEM: –
MATOWATAKPE – Bathurst Race 3 @ 21/20 . . . . . Won
HIGHLY REGARDED (with a special mention): –
SHE ZED SO – Wangaratta Race 4 @ 5/2 . . . . . ABD
That is my full hand which I hope may fill the domestic void.
Sadly the meeting at WANGARATTA was abandoned due to the poor air quality caused by the smoke drift from the raging bush fires currently causing such mayhem.

WANGARATTA (Victoria) is about 150 miles north of Melbourne and has a population of around 19,000 and boast recorded high temperature of 114 degrees.
It is located at the junction of two rivers, the Oven and King from which it derives its name taken from the original inhabitants the Pangerang peoples meaning, nesting place of cormorants.

December 23, 2019 at 06:39 #1477887Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you Bill.
Hope you adventures down under continue well for you in 2020.
December 23, 2019 at 08:49 #1477892Thank-you Matron.
There is a Christmas Eve meeting at Wagga Wagga but nothing noteworthy on which to spend my pocket money.
I wonder if there is something in the sporting water of Wagga because Tony Roche the tennis champion plus the great cricketers like, Geof Lawson, Michael Slater & Mark Taylor come from there, it also claimed Dame Edna Everage has roots there as does one of the Wiggles.
I know who the Wiggles are . . . . do you?

December 23, 2019 at 11:52 #1477899Billion… Thread of the Ear…. nice one Billy old todger and it wears well on you. You bounced back in on December 4th and in just 20 days you have switched the lights on in Ward 7 and the heating is back on again. I am further taken aback to see Matron smiling again (unless it’s wind) and I did see him sitting behind his desk polishing something…. it’s always been a bit of a spectacle seeing Matron and Nathan doing those strange contortions, they keep on telling me that it’s yoga….
Nonetheless, you have over 800 views in such a short time and your missives are a joy to read….. now if we can only stop Matron planning the Ward 7 Panto again, this year he said that he was going to cast Nathan as Aladdin because he’s always rubbing his lamp….
Once again, best wishes for the Panto season and beware of Matron stalking the corridors with a sprig of mistletoe tucked in his belt…. have a good one all of you…. 2020 holds great promise….MrE
December 23, 2019 at 14:34 #1477906I think this whole suggestion is something cooked up by Nathan as a way to gender more interest and therefore promotes the idea of myself being somewhat that I am not.
You and I MrE are simply part of the orchestra conducted by either Matron or Nathan, possibly both which may well have been perceived whilst in some dark corner of this place strangely known as Ward 7.

December 23, 2019 at 14:55 #1477907Nothing to do with me Billy boy

December 23, 2019 at 19:13 #1477919I believe you Nathan when 100’s perhaps 1,000’s would not.
It has been a slow day today during which we finalised our shopping at Tesco and was abused by 50’sh 4×4 driver for not squeezing into a parking place quick enough for him to exit his place and as he drove away his passenger shouted as loud as he possibly could whilst hanging out of his window that I was a dozy old ****.
As bad as it was at a time of year when there is supposedly PEACE AND GOODWILL, although I did nothing wrong, the truth being he may well be right.
Anyway my Christmas has not been spoiled and eventually I found a home for my pocket money: –
RUGGED BOY – Race 7, Wagga Waggga @ 11/4 . . . . . . .Won
Enjoy your Christmas as best as you can.

December 23, 2019 at 19:59 #1477923I’m about to hit Tesco myself in a bit
Not very nice those people shouting at you
Perhaps they realised it was you from the Gazette about the tractors..

December 23, 2019 at 22:00 #1477929G’day Billy, nice frock your wearing… is it Daphne’s???…. the accolades that your receiving are well founded youngster, you most definitely light up the darker corners of Ward 7…. Matron is awake once again although I have my doubts about him, the last time I saw anything like him prowling the corridors was in “Fear the Walking Dead”, I think Matron played the lead role as Bud the Zombie…. he was a natural and didn’t require any time in the make up room.

December 23, 2019 at 22:46 #1477935My Son loves the walking dead, MrE
I’ll ask him if he has seen Matron on thereGoing back to our Billion and the couple that shouted at him at Tesco
I have a transcript from the Suffolk Gazette which I have copied on-line, it seems the couple who swore at Bill owned a tractor
anyways here is what I found
Suffolk Gazette
Suffolk man “had sex with 450 tractors”..!!!
A Suffolk man with a bizarre sexual attraction to tractors has been banned from the countryside and force to sign the sex offenders register
Billion 97 years old was found by police with his trousers around his ankles and “interfering” with a tractor
He was arrested on suspicion of outraging public decency and admitted to having sex with around 450 tractors
When officers searched his house they found a collection of more than 5,000 tractor images on his laptopoh dear..

December 23, 2019 at 23:06 #1477939I’m not too sure that you read that correctly… or perhaps the Gazette had a typo. I think it was said that Bill was having relations with a PROtractor on account that he had a bit of a crush on a girl group called the “43 degrees”…..
MrE
December 24, 2019 at 09:26 #1477945As always the paper does not tell the full story but does prove there is still life in the old gear box.

December 24, 2019 at 10:21 #1477948You tell them Bill!
A bit of grease can do wonders.
You will have get a car with “park-assist”.
December 24, 2019 at 11:35 #1478007OK! Hands up!
It was a simple case of gender confusion and how was I to know it was a tractor in drag when the other tractor called out to John Deere and I thought it was John Dear.
Perhaps the cataract procedures were not as successful as I thought them to be.

December 24, 2019 at 12:11 #1478013Hey Billy, I just looked at it (I shouldn’t have said that)…. I’m obviously talking about that Thread of the Ear, do you know that you’ve got 4 votes….. must be the 4 zombies in here….
That reminds me, I wanted to know why zombies walk so funny, so I Googled it….. it said that the reason the gait was awkward, was because they had been buried for some days/weeks and their extremities were prone to seize up and stiffen. Well, I saw Matron at the end of the corridor just nipping into the dormitory to visit Nathan, I shouted after him and asked him if he was stiff…. those hollow sunken eyes just turned slowly in my direction and this sort of smile creased his lips…. ohhh Billy, it was scary…. I had to leave at quite a pace and you, above all people, will know how difficult it is to run fast when the adrenaline is running down your legs…. I managed to squelch to safety in the woods, I don’t think that I’ll come out again until after Christmas….
Happy Christmas to you all (again) and don’t let Matron scare you…. he’s a pussy cat…..

MrE
