    Maybe, maybe not. You would soon go poor if you bet on weather forecasts being accurate.

    And that’s why they didn’t cancel early. If you cancelled everything on weather forecasts you would end up having very little on.

    But, if this year’s Champion Hurdle would be a Flat race only, he’d be a very short priced fav.

    Bit of a daft statement that as with the prizemoney there would be a lot better flat horses than CH enter. Also the clue is in the name ‘Champion HURDLE’.

    28/08/2025 – We desperately need rain or this could be disastrous for the farmers.

    28/01/2026 – More unwanted rain on the way.

    It was dark when Kripticjim won ;-)

    I’m sure HF will correct this when he notices. Mistakes can easily happen.

    Another one shot dead in Minneapolis as it looks like ICE officers mistook his phone for a gun :wacko:

    It definitely wasn’t an apology. Trump said this to get a reaction from the countries who had effectively put an end to him obtaining Greenland. Just like a little kid who can’t have his own way and says something nasty to hurt their feelings. He then feels guilty and in effect says he didn’t mean it but refrains from saying the ‘S’word.

    It really is like dealing with a little kid.

    No mention of the other NATO members who sacrificed lives :negative:

    An issue which is starting to get mentioned more by the media is the utter disaster with civil service pensions.

    I believe this was awarded in 2023 and they took it over in December 2025. Sounds like Fujitsu still getting the IT contracts all these years after the Post Office scandal.

    “There was a grain of truth in what he said. But some things are far better left unsaid.”

    Give your head a wobble CAS.

    CAS – “You don’t believe Trump was seriously considering invading the territory of another NATO member? Even he wouldn’t do that.”

    How come when Starmer makes a small error you are all over him like a rash yet when Trump makes a monumental one you play it down by saying he didn’t mean it.

    I’m no Starmer supporter but I’d rather have him as the leader of my country than that buffoon. Mind you saying that I’d rather have Johnson. Farage would be a close run thing.

    There hasn’t been an apology CAS and he won’t give one.

    Trump going back on a disgusting interview he gave to Fox News. Like Moehat says there were thousands of other service personnel who made tours to both Afghanistan and Iraq from other NATO countries, many who were killed in action. I’m sure these troops will have been put where they were told, whether that’s on the front line or slightly off it as Trump puts it. The point is servicemen lost their lives in wars which had little to do with them or the nations they served. All of which would have had a devastating effect on the friends and family of these men and women.

    Having seen what Ben Parkinson has gone through by watching on Look North, one can’t imagine what he and his family went through at the time of the attack and the aftermath and recovery, which is still ongoing nearly 20 years on.

    Those who think that Trump is anyway right in saying what he said need to give their head a wobble.

    Obviously the US sent more troops than any other country as they also have a much bigger population than other NATO countries. Percentage wise of troops served would give a much better indication.

    Good to see Starmer bollock Trump over his disgusting words for a change. I’m guessing they’ll fall on deaf ears though.

    Disgusting words from Trump. Just because he didn’t get his own way with Greenland he has a go at the countries who stood up to him. If a politician had said that here he would be out on arse within half an hour.

    The guy needs putting in a nursing home.

    Said Halifax which is in West Yorkshire not South. Halifax racecourse went about 150 years ago.
