With the jumps season finishing, this will be my last proper column.

I hope you have enjoyed reading it as much as I have working with Betfair these past seven months - and it is good that I have been able to bring you plenty of exclusives throughout the campaign, such as Sanctuaire's breathing operation last week - and of course it helps that I have retained my trainers' title!

On a personal level, I have come a long way this season, entering the 21st century technology age!

Who would have thought that I would finish the 2010-11 campaign with tens of thousands of followers on Twitter and Facebook, and often having an I-pad in tow when going to the races?!

But it's not quite all over yet.

I will be bringing you my summary of the season soon, and my thoughts on my Punchestown runners.

But then I will be going on a couple of short breaks abroad to re-charge my batteries for next season.

I will soon be planning for next season though; you snooze and you lose in this game.
