    2006 was a difficult year for TRF and I think that’s why Alan the ultimate racing enthusiast was chosen and even yesterday when I posted the list I wondered if 2006 was right but it now rings all the right bells. Thank you Nathan for filling in the missing with hard evidence. If Jeremy later contacts and states he won three times we can still slot him in in the back years and reshuffle.
    Hugely interesting posts from all – I may comment later but have horse work to do.

    Haven’t these 20 years just flown by :yes:

    Paw once told me that despite the radio the early part of the last century was boring, particularly when he was a kid and a teen – there was nothing much for him to do. There were lots of rainy afternoons when he got bored.

    Since the millennium the clock has speeded up. Rainy afternoons have dried up. There are massive amount of things to do !
    The clock has also got busy :yahoo: !

    Alan Bates knows the length of 16 years and all those caught up in the Post Office scandal.
    Hakamada Iwao knows it equally well, having spent 45 slow years on death row in Japan.
    The seconds drip by for the likes of them, possibly the lucky ones – difficult to say that – but for the unchallenged and the majority of the rest of us, well the weed infested garden shed, the ladder to the dusty loft, or the dark dank place in the basement, could be the only thing left to obstruct the relentless fizzing away of time in an instant.

    Catch 22

    THE LIST represents thousands and thousands of hours of work. Some say the forum is free. Pull the other one there’s a nib attached.

    English life expectancy at birth averaged about 36 years in the 17th and 18th centuries, one of the highest levels in the world although infant and child mortality remained higher than in later periods.

    This is when time counted and a glance across a crowded room took an age to connect, and possibly never connected.

    Thank you clock !
