    Great stuff Raymo, no doubt helped out by your good lady :good:

    It had to be done, it wouldn’t be the same without a competition
    covering the Oaks and Derby day.

    The battle for the cakes is on, betting is 10/11 either way. I’m already
    working my way through them and I’m definitely up for this one.

    Cheers mate :good:

    Can’t wait Raymo :yahoo: You and Mrs Raymo make a good team and I would say Nobody Does It Better but a certain Mr.G not a million miles away doesn’t put on a bad compy himself 😃💫🐎

    I”m not expecting to be anywhere close in this one, always find it hard predicting winners at Epsom, but one or two winners will do me fine… :good:

    Roll on Friday..and get those cakes at the ready..mines a cream doughnut.. :good:

    The punters are piling on with positive words from the stable, Mrs R

    You've got to accentuate the positive.
    Eliminate the negative.
    Latch on to the affirmative.
    Don't mess with mister in between.

    I do sympathize with Mrs Raymo61, while new technology can be a pleasure once mastered. The learning curve can be a bitch. (Sorry for the profanity).
