Not sure this is that interesting just more of an observation lol. Why do the racing post insist on showing their reporters in their face pics as at least 10 years younger dooh. Keith Melrose for instance looks around late 30s in his pic but when you watch him on podcasts etc he looks late 50s. I tried to unsuccessfully find his real age. Maybe it’s just me lol. Another one us Paul keakey looks 40ish in his pic but on pods looks over 60. Maybe they hard hard bike rounds as kids lmao

Oops Kealey typo apologies

Kealy looked about 12 in his pictures when he was on the sports team rather than racing.
As I understand it, the Post waits till their journalists are at a racecourse and gets their top smudger Ed Whitaker to take a new headshot because there are rules against taking a selfie on an iphone. This is why every now and then there is a ten year jump in age. Look at Maddy Playle, for instance. One thing about podcasts is pundits are not made up like on proper telly so they look like, well, they look like what they look like. |

Maybe maddy lol

Davethehatt -- yes, that is what I've just explained. They use headshots specially taken by the official RP racecourse photographer. That is why they only change once every few years.

Talking of photos have a look at Dave Orton's on ATR. Obviously, the budget didn't stretch to a second one.

By:
Lol he looks like David Jennings batting for the other side Bruv lol
|

By:
Keals' problem is not what he looks like but what he sounds like. He can barely complete a sentence without coughing and spluttering like a 60-a-day man.

That was my other point sumwhere in there ram lol. I agree struggles to get the words out probably still got Covid lol
|

By:
Apparently there is a new strain of Covid doing the rounds. It would be just my luck to lose my senses of taste and smell over Christmas (95 days to go).

Just get your booster number (how many are we up to?) and I'm sure you'll be not only protecting yourself, but protecting your loved ones too, with the safe and effective potion.
Speaking of 'covid' and RP pics, what never ceased to astound me during the plandemic, was how they would opt to show a pictures of people wearing the face nappys rather their full faces, during routine reporting, as if to normalise it. |

Sorry to hear that george glad my thread turned into a helpful nhs thread

Can I ask if you think that it was a double whammy? Given out for those (of old age) who escaped Cofid?
I don’t care about being called a conspiracy nut, I believe it was released to help with the ‘elderly problem’ where it’s especially a big thing out east with the amount of elderly and having no one to look after them. The thing is it’s hasn’t seemed to have done anything to the likes of the tennis players who had to have it for the tour, used as an example. Not heard of any of them having problems so wonder if it was the poison after the mouse trap so to speak? |
|
By:
Again appreciate your reply.
Dave yes the photos are a joke, Seagul always looks like a sweaty mess to me, if Harry W’s shot is an old one he must be looking like jabba the hut now!  Soz Haz! Soon we’ll all have AI photos of us, no need for filters girls, every wrinkle ironed by a bot! |

I’m pleased to hear that she has George and I’ve not heard of Lisa Shaw? Should I google?
Did the guy have the side effect not long after the booster? I’ll pass on this info as I believe what you’re saying and understand better now your stance. |
|
By:
Lisa Shaw was a BBC radio presenter.
Lots of vids were doing the rounds of sports people collapsing. Nadal reported breathing issues but I think eventually put it down to a stress fracture of a rib. That's it. Q & A session over. |

By:
Appreciated that you answered and no intention of turning into a q&a!
Enjoy your afternoon and best of with your bets. |

Lol del. Tbh mate it was the split links who created it imho. Look how many uk companies they bought out in the aftermath. 3 of my lads work in a Greene king pub n the slitty eyed kernts bought them out plus many more. Getn a business on the cheap was obviously gud deal n they didn’t mind cos it was mainly people who didn’t av long left that passed.
|
|
By:
Agree Dave for the reasons said and sorry to hear about you and your wife’s loss.
I’d seen a show on world news where the links claimed to have had a vaccine before it even hit our shores, it also showed them treating people without those machines. We were planning on getting Dyson to make loads of ventilators and they were putting people on their chests and rubbing the back. I saw one us Doc online saying the machines weren’t the answer but we were still plugging peeps into them. Biggest tell was that they never put Boris on one, he even said if he went in the unit he weren’t coming out. Two tier health care. |

Alzheimer’s Is a terrible thing, makes you laugh the new plan - don’t drink, don’t smoke, live long and forget all things you could remember ‘cos you weren’t sloshed back in the day!
Entwistle had the right idea, 8 ball and whatever else he had and 3 of Las Vegas’s finest! |

No worries Dave, I remember you saying during a whirlwind visit in the summer about having a large brood! You gave us a laugh that day! Hope you’ve been well and enjoy that drink, as a father of 10 you deserve to kick back!
It’s good that you have family, I pity all the old folk without, seen ‘em in hospital, no visitors, they don’t eat nor get fed, poor sods. Having a family is a treasure, have a good one! |

Cheers Dave, ain’t easy having kids these days with all the phones and what comes with them. Mums don’t like that much, but nice you are so close and can share a drink together and lucky you aren’t outnumbered by females in the house!
My mate had five daughters! No wonder he was always out golfing! You got the place rocking that day and gave me a laugh! |

Hey del glad u enjoyed I like to av a Laff. My sense of humour much like marmite lol. I git equals mate 5 of each weird thing is all the girls left home all the boys at home lol. So got my 5 patriotic boys plus their miserable mum cud be worse lol cheers my friend. Hope ur life is gud

Good that you’re back and I love a laugh too! With our normal weather here you gotta have a sense of humour!
Sounds like your boys like the cooking and your eldest is probably at your drinks when you konk fo the night! Can’t complain and there ain’t nothing wrong with being patriotic, everyone else is ok to be! You know my mates were putting the flags up for the football years back, the local council got the right hump and did the take down. Next day they were back up! Ended up they gave up taking them down and let ‘em be as long as we took down after the tournament. Which under Southgate meant they stayed up longer than usual! Makes a mockery of them saying that they were a risk or danger! Take it easy and be lucky. |
