that you near the back straight with the poodle?
My cat went out of the bedroom window at 3.00 a.m, nearly blew her off the roof, she's tough as teak.
id imagine winds are going to drop a little this morning, so long as they don't see a risk to the public you'd have to be hopeful they will race there?
hendo says fav only operates in light south westerly,s so will get his lad out with a wind sox later
in days gone by they'd don a turtleneck and some woolly knit colours and get on with it

I hope punters do not miss a winner thinking meeting has been called off due to OP. I'd be livid if this happens in any multiples.
Almost impossible that anyone would, and if they did think that without checking further, then they probably would need help filling out their slip anyway 
.... like others I assume, my initial thoughts were..oh no it's not is it...oh you got me.....and that was the point I guess...a bit of fun.

I've got to the stage where I assume the genuine ones are jokes,depending on the poster of course
Greta Thunberg has tweeted her support for all National Hunt meetings going ahead - think about the environmental impact of all four of those horse-boxes having made a wasted journey.
1.01 that I haven't seen as many as others...in this case for me, who was unaware of the severity of the weather in that area....I saw/see it as a bit of fun and informative as well.
Posters that consistently stalk, hound, abuse, belittle, get posts or threads taken off etc...now that is a different story and the opposite of a bit of fun imo....anyway racing has already started...good luck all.

hear, hear! - that gaze character might be an utter half-wit but we should all unite and fight for his right to be an utter half-wit imo.
The clue about your character is your choice of username.....end of....the cap fits you perfectly TM.

Rumbustious night
Word of the week I think. Due to my limited education I had to look up the meaning; the first google entry said: " The meaning of rumbustious is rambunctious ". Very useful.....

My forum name is taken from the name that some very ignorant and one-dimensional people gave to me when I was partaking in the rat race. With their incapacity for original thought and inability to deviate from a plan (no matter how flawed), they probably thought it was very original and funny at the time.
It pre-dates your comedy heroes by a good few years and seemed very appropriate as a forum name when the exchange model was actually a p2p venture.
Apologies for lacking your originality. - If I had my time over I would consider betemall, assuming some deep thinking genius hadn't already bagged it.

walob.....If you think that's what they called you.....then think again.
More clues on that post about your character and why you were never able to legitimately call yourself "The Senior Management", then or since.....keep em coming

I won't be posting my former job title or my salary package - but how thick are you? - you can't work out what organisations might have referred to the "opposition" with whom they were "negotiating" as "The Management".
Nope....bit too intentionally vague for me.....keep digging...you're almost there Mr Big Shot
- have a word with yer man Gaze - tell him it's your weekend to have the shared brain cell.No need to check the dial - he won't have done too many miles with it.
I have been attacked by an anonymous poster on an anonymous forum that is frequented by 12 dozen old men - and on that basis i have felt it necessary to defend my honour
And also - he started it sir!
And also - he started it sir!
fair enough Rico - from the total of 144 people that post on here, you are probably dragging down the average age - but that just means the other 12 people that post must be really old! 
He's got a lot of user-names for sure - but 84 sounds a bit on the high side 
TM..1..where do you get the figure of 144 from?
....2..what is the average(mean), age of posters on the forum do you think?
....3..how old are you?

yes mark..got it recovered today and give it a hoover out.
How did it go today St ? In view of there being no drones ( as far as i know ) because of the inclement weather. Not sure how far BLV was behind today , but it seemed to play ok.
best day there for a long time..albeit becos of the no drones.
Does betfairs bot not play when it is windy either then, rico?
Or is the real reason it is harder bar today, because you on a level playing field usually now?

fly over biafra and drop a party pork pie..see how many eat well..
fly over biafra and drop a cargo hold full of family size pies and see how many eat well..
of course the bots in operation but its not as brutal at short prices.

Fact is, you dont blame the bot or find is as difficult to get matched when you got a near 2 second advantage, yet
when you on a level playing field and struggle a bit to get matched, it's the bots fault
when you on a level playing field and struggle a bit to get matched, it's the bots fault
the bot is brutal when you're trying to ponce money..its there to maximise prophets for its maker...its brutal when you bet something over 3/1,,its designed to give you bad value therefore bad value is no value..no value you'll struggle to make it pay..when your betting short prices there is little option for the bot as only prob 2 can win..if im in the front of the queue at fenwicks for their boxing day sale im sure to get great value..if you're sitting at home you wont. hth 
take a look at many of my bets yest on the flourishing fred and tell me im wrong.
If you got a 2 second advantage you do really well, if you on level playing field, you do not so good although still win.
The reason you win well when got a 2 second advantage aint because the bots on holiday

.if im in the front of the queue at fenwicks for their boxing day sale im sure to get great value..if you're sitting at home you wont.
100 people will struggle to share 1 pie.
5 wont.
5 wont.
If you got a 2 second advantage it doesnt mean the bots taken a holiday
