"didn’t realise that Leeds was such an amazingly popular source of racing information."Well, I listen to a Leeds based net radio service called Sports Live Radio on my ipod which relays all the official racecourse commentaries. The presenters and the contributors can be a real pain, especially when it comes to giving their tips. Really comes into its own when there are lots of meetings to cover. Special mentions for Real Taffy, Intrepid Punter, Jock and Jude and Nick (swallow)Millard, who I believe is the owner.
How you hangin’ Gamble?

Emmylou HarrisHenderson? Never did like the cut of the man’s jib! Far too florid of feature. If you can get a Queen’s horse disqualified and suffer a paltry ban for doing so, there is no end to the mischief you can get up to.

R Burns.The man is suffering from what a union official recently accused the "Coalition" of. Namely "Recession Fetishism", which sums it up completely.

Stopped smoking last September and have not stopped eating since. Plusometer is now hovering at around 2 stone and alcohol intake up by at least 100%. Would have been healthier to keep drawing on the weed, methinks.
"I’ve got swingin’doors a juke box and a bar stool"
Hell’s teeth my wooly friend. Looks like the prolls are trying the impossible and slotting you into a easily recognisible slot. Haway with the lot of them! Let them catogarise, simplify, and modify you as they see fit, but hey, your path is for you to tread and let no fiegned admirer sway you. Love the advert though, warts and all.
"I’ve working on a cocktail called Grounds for Divorce"
Can’t abide these thesbians/failed comedians coming on the box looking all caring, amazed, sympathetic, sincere, etc. Got to remind yourself that they are actors/performers and that they are probably reading from a script with a director telling them which emotion, reaction to convey to the camera next. If we are going to have a documentary about horses let’s have someone, anyone, who deals with these magnificent beasts on a daily basis. Quite like Martin Clunes as an actor though. We’ll have Bono, bless him, expounding about the polar bear next!

Hello again all, been taking a bit of a sabbatical on the Sub Continent. Was woken out of my lethargy by a well timed reminder from the head honcho of this site. Thought this was the best thread to re-enter as I’m sure my old sparring partner, Gamble, will check it out on a regular basis. Good to see the surealist vien is still running through this page. Anyway Gamble, I hope you are in fine fettle and the wool is bunching up nicely for the coming winter months. Scarborough can be chilly in September. Can’t say it is good to be back yet. Only time will tell.
"I know that the writing’s on the wall" Paulo Nuntini.
I preferred The Wire to The Sopranos because
Each episode was a stand alone.
Characters were more believable and contemporary.
Sopranos got to be a bit of an "aria show" for the leading actors towards the end.
Personaly, I think The Shield knocked them both into a cocked hat for televisual entertainment."All my life’s a **** up, sunrise till sundown"
"There is nothing wrong with this forum, just some members who think they know better than the people who pay all the bills/work to keep this site functioning, and try to run the site in a fair and honest way to please the more senisible people within society. We have very simple rules that we feel are almost idiot proof barring the few obviously!!"
Jobsworthy Bollocks!
Tor wrote "In all the places that I’ve ‘seen’ Mr.Davies, I’ve not seen him spew any bile."
Well Tor, you are very fortunate indeed. If ever a contributor to these pages was guilty of posting personal and vitriolic abuses on anyone who disagreed with him, Avis was the master. Some claim to fame, that. And God or whoever forbid if the poster resided north of the M25. As I have stated before, let the sleeping dog lie.
"I feel only a hero can defeat these demons now"
Gamble, methinks you are obsessing and wasting what little time you have left in this meadow by trying to flush out Avis. Best to let the sleeping dog lie, through his teeth. Who really cares where Diane spews his egotistical bile these days? Moi? Jamais!
"Anyway, it’s looking like a beautiful day"
Not much of a mutton man myself Gamble, unless it is disguised in a scotch pie smothered in

unter sauce. Much prefer the leg of a lamb dosed up with joliver sainsbury’s rosemary and garlic. Is it possible to recycle a prosthetic limb? Maybe on a tricycle?
