Just my luck- arranged tickets for 28th to bring the youngest to the Jedward panto.

Plan was to stay out in leopardstown and go racing on 28th and 29th while the women went shopping. If  the whole lot gets pushed back to 30th ill have spent two days getting dragged around shops and see no racing.

So much for my cunning planCryCry
