    Xmas greetings to all horseheads including you Yeats for limelighting the teenage wastrel – who is far too big for his boots.

    Who Is Your Favourite Dictator is the Grande Opus of there is only one Ian Davies and I select that for thread of the year. Betlarge’s lateral thinking Alternative Top Ten thread and Bachelor’s Hall’s epic juvenile hurdling microscope are also deserving of winning this

    Davies’s an interesting thread because it moulds the doomed lounge with the thriving horsehead section.

    Still under my microscope is Poster of the year.

    I wish you well !

    Broadcaster of the Year:

    I’d like to see a big field for this with plenty of each-way value. So, can I nominate the following:
    Rory Delargy
    Kevin Blake
    Tony Calvin
    Diarmuid Nolan
    Jonathan Neeson
    Dan Barber

    Yes, and Emmet Kennedy, even though he’s not for me, ought to be in the nominations for his dedication to providing three-hour podcasts on a Saturday morning just two hours before the races start.

    The more names the better in terms of giving us voting options. (Is this allowed? Sorry if not).

    We’re all doomed Ricky but amidst the gloom a shaft of light appears with a message which might just cheer your cockles.

    TRF Poster of The Year – Gingertipster

    After a lot of thought and seeing all the selections it came down to the wire, and then a Princess phoned me.

    B.B News is interrupted

    AND HERE FOLLOWS A PUBLIC HEATH WARNING – STAY ON THE HEATH

    hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
    Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
    Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

    There was a certain rat in China long ago
    He was big and strong in his eyes a flaming glow
    Most people looked at him with terror and fear
    But to one market chick she thought he was a dear
    He would swagger in the gutter a dirty creature
    He could set her on fire
    And she was only too happy for him to teach her
    And she felt desire

    O O OMICRON
    Lover of the unvaccined
    Here was a rat who would really catch on
    O O OMICRON
    Worlds greatest disease machine
    He’ll get you all if you donna get clean
