JOSEY WALES GAVE ME ONE OF MY CHAIRS BACK The Glimmer Man Today at 12:04 pm I had one of the two chairs on course that Josey nicked last year . As I was doing the payout with Jenny and the floor out the front on my own, with no tic -tac and mobiles rendered useless by the noise of the crowd and loudspeakers, the only respite my dodgy knee got was while a race was on. But the chair was pretty low and there was nothing to hold onto to support my weight as I lowered myself into it. The last few inches were a |

The Glimmer Man Yesterday at 12:47 pm The non-racing highlight of the day was two policemen taking a drunk from the beer tent past the row of bookies. He was**over and had both arms firmly locked by the arresting constables. One drunken race-goer, probably one of his mates, who was following, was just about to launch himself at the police from behind when a security guards (it has Event Staff - here to help you |

The Glimmer Man Today at 1:15 am Friday Up at 5-50 a.m. , a quick cuppa and outside for a cigar. For a few minutes I thought Arthur |

Off to the course at 8-30, not much traffic for Gold Cup day, and in the car park well before 10-00 a.m.
Arthur wasnt pleased when he told us that the smoke alarm in his room didnt work as he had tested it by blowing fag smoke at it, and nothing happened. He had been out at night in the cold with us instead of stretched out on the bed with a ciggie. The dead chair was still there as nobody had nicked it, so it went into a dustbin and the second chair that Josey nicked last year came out of its bag. It survived the afternoons rigours. People who were supposed to turn up this week were Lozzy (who was in Tatts for 4 days), GT, Fenway , Dragon and his wife, and Studyforms mate, Paulie Walnuts. PW was the only one to show in the BM Enclosure, and you can tell hes mate of Studys. He was wearing a green, white and orange and white wig. As is obvious, hes Irish., and noticeable, as he must be 6-4 at least. I was out front watching 5 books before the first race, and got chatting to two scousers who were down on a coach trip. They asked what was bring backed and I said that Id been out here for over two hours and the only real mover was Barizan, which had gone from 25s into 16s. They said theyd have an each way bet on it. He led and was clear at the 4th, and was still 15 lengths in front two out when he faltered , galloped on and 5 clear at the last, but with his tongue lolling out he ran out of steam on the run in and got caught by Soldatino. |

The Glimmer Man Today at 1:19 am As for that CHELTENHAM song, nobody where we were joined in, and apparently nobody else did much on other parts of the course when it came over the tannoy system three times a day. Heres my version : When youre alone and the wife is nagging you daily you can always go to CHELTENHAM forget all your worries just grab the rent money and off you go to CHELTENHAM Just listen to the roaring crowd as they get under way no one else will give a feck no matter what you say but when you lose |

The Glimmer Man Today at 3:24 pm I forgot to say that Terry (Gogoidle) turned up on a brief visit from Tatts where he was working. Tel, there's no appearance money for this mention. :) There's also something I forgot but I'm **ed if I know whatis it now. I knew it last night but never wrote it down, and now it's gone, like tears in the rain. |
