    I overheard a man on the street on his mobile phone saying that he had backed Estimate with £100 at 11-2

        Should get your money back?

          Yes should get your money back.

          I certainly rated ER's selection as one of the main dangers.

          What an absolutely thrilling day at Ascot with the Lady Cecil winner as well as Her Majesty's.

            Didn't see any of the action due to work.
            Yep,you can't keep those Cecils out of the winners enclosure.

              Well done, Alison. At work all week so no time to study properly and having to fast-forward through the TV broadcast each night. Therefore, saving my firepower and money for Saturday.

              Have my eye on Duke of Firenze in the 4.25 on Saturday.

                      It was all a bit of a blur...

                      Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
                      Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
                      Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

                        One thing which will forever stick in my memory about yesterday was helping a very disabled man cross the Euston Road by St Pancras Station. We found ourselves stranded halfway across the eastward side when the lights turned, but, d'you know what, the traffic stopped to let us cross! Euston Road!! On a rainy Thursday evening!!!

                        I was quite heartened by that.

                          Once again we edge into the later half of the week.

                              so apart from having a horrible cold that has sent my voice down 2 octaves (I am available for Rachmaniov Vespers but get in quick as it's going up soon !) should
                              be a rather good one ........
