Can one still buy Woodbines?
|
|
By:
no idea, my grandad was in the merchant navy and that was his ciggy
|
|
By:
All the old miners smoked Woodbines too.
I remember visiting a friend in hospital and as I was walking up the ward, a old guy in an oxygen tent gestured me across by waving his arm. When I went to his bed to see what he wanted, he removed his oxygen mask and said to me, "Have you got any spare Woodbines?"  |
|
By:
lol ... my grandad did about 40 a day for most of his life, they didn't kill him either though god knows how he got away with it

i remember smoking woodbines when i was a teenager, them seemed cool as they didnt have a filter, so you could toss them into the air knowing it didnt matter which end hit. i blame steve mcqueen.
|
|
By:
strong were they not, high tar no filter?
|
|
By:
Looking at the tote, no7 is the one to back.
|
|
By:
i was just looking at that as well, i think the pools look dodgy this early tonight
|
|
By:
One can get caught out looking at odds on here and comparing them with early odds on course. One thinks one is getting value then 5 minutes later the track odds change dramatically.
|
|
By:
just read its form, claiming etc....
|
|
By:
agree tmm
we all go for big odds just before the off, returns 1/4 the show last seen. |

Bizarrely i have backed Shazny in most of his races since his win at epsom last year. but not tonight.
A very likeable horse as he always tries his heart out. He would make a top class hurdler. |
|
By:
Unlike here, where they get away with murder, They get disq in USA for the slightest interference.
 |
|
By:
you know what, he gets up the rail, but when he's finger wagging his celebration he comes off and hits the pair, he could get chucked here
|
|
By:
head on view doesn't look good... US stewards won't like that!
|
|
By:
he could.
|
|
By:
at times like this you wish you had spotted it in real time and then nibbled the 1.01 lay
|
|
By:
interfered with the third so might have to be placed behind it even though he had that one beat?
|
|
By:
yes, if he fouls he goes 3rd, close call, past experience says he's going to be lucky to keep it
|
|
By:
that will teach him to celebrate lol
|
|
By:
yeaaahhhh wd simcock keeps it
|
|
By:
bit like the french rules, we need coolmoore at times like this.
I remember their horse breaking the rules but keeping the race. Heres hoping. |

For some reason they were known as 'wild woodbines' round our way, and it was deemed fun to annoy the shopkeeper by asking for 'tame woodbines'
Same with 'black cat' and asking for 'white cat' Park Drive were known as 'PD chokers' Mr and Mrs Donaldson, who lived two doors away, were chain smokers and smoked Players No. 6, which were so popular they once accounted for half of the UK cigarette market. She was deaf and used to shout all the time. I was in the ahop one day when she came in to buy some just after a budget, and she shouted 'How much? When these up to go up to a dollar a packet we're packing up.' They didn't though, and years later they both died of lung cancer. They had a cupboard either side of the fireplace cram-packed with No. 6 coupons they had never got to trading in. Could have got a car I reckon, they had that many.  |
