I presume the action is about to start in two days despite most of us being outed ( so to speak ) for 48 hours or so.
We have two new team members but neither of them are comp virgins so I am assuming everybody knows the basic rules. If there IS anything you are unsure of please raise it on here in the first place to ease the pressure on undecided.
Do remember to post selections on ud's thread AND on here please.
As usual there will be no team instructions,I am not an autocrat,but there may be the odd hint in the 2nd week.
If you know you will be unable to post in any given week please let me know asap and I will try and distribute any wild cards we need as fairly as I can.
Finally I am appointing our former Humbug DIFERENT GRAVY 12 as official cheerleader ( He has withdrawn for reasons I suspect most of us understand but which have nothing to do with The Humbugs).
Onwards and upwards Humbugs.

Good luck GLASGOW.
I've been to Fakenham a couple of times recently. Nice place but everything,including the track,seems to be in miniature.

Yes, shame one bad mistake done for him.
I enjoyed my days working in Falmouth Lampus, wonder if my old Guest House is still there on Melvill Rd. ?

Hmmm. Not a good week so far and some **** got a 20-1 winner ( shouldn't be allowed imo unless it's a Humbug )
Good luck pedro.
Just smirnoff and one other to post.

I was unable to post all afternoon. Perhaps as well as none of today's 3 ever looked like winning.
We need to pick ourselves up,dust ourselves down and start all over again. Remember the first week,forget the second.

Well said mads.
I had actually not dared to look where we finished last night,but in fact we finished 4th,exactly mid-table so we're more Chelsea than Bournemouth.

We need to stop the rot.
I'm off this weekend on the trip that was postponed a couple of weeks ago. I'm around tomrrow morning and will put something up myself. I won't be on Sat I fear but this is a very reliable bunch compared to yesteryear so I wouldn't anticipate having to use any wildcards.
If we do I'm sure the team can sort it. Lampus has the final say if he's around.

Sorry about that Lampus. I did put up Bonttay on here at around 02.10 this morning (working a nightshift contract at the mo) but for some reason it didnt show up, luckily it did show up on the comp thread
Thats a big lead the other team have, will be hard to overhaul you would think, nice winners for them though. Glad that Bonttay won nicely, gone in the notebook
Lol.
I am hoping not to miss anymore Sats.
Thanks to Lampus and our excellent cheerleader DG for getting things sorted out.
2nd'll do for the moment.

Could be a Lincoln fest so will try to avoid
Tennessee Dream 6.00 Wol Win
Rare AW for me
Hat trick winner
Back in class & distance
Short break
Downside female
Was tempted by Bun Doran 3.35 War EW at a big price
But lack of 3 places tempers it

Not around tomorrow so having a go today in the 5.40 Wexford, I thought that Bridswell Lad had the race at his mercy when unseating at the last when 6 lengths clear last time out, that was a btter race than the one which the Elliott horse won at Thurles imo but the prescence of that one should ensure we get around the 11/4 mark, handicap debut today and although they have raised him 3lb for not completing still looks a bet to me. Good luck folks.
I should have waited for the market to develop, massive drift taking place, out to 6.2 at the mo, never mind, fingers and toes crossed.
Captain I have been given a tip for the Lincoln
Frankincense around 12-1
Do you give it any chance

With Greville up looks good to me Lampus. Think you should hold out for 100-8 though.

Faller didn't help
Frankincense is commonly used to treat horses for lameness, wounds and abscesses, cardiovascular problems, pulmonary problems (coughs, emphysema, etc.), intestinal parasites, and emotional uneasiness.
Think Lampy been imbibing

Won it in 1968 mads when Lampus was only middle-aged.
I fear we have fallen to 5th but we have kept a bit more of our powder dry than some.
G/l everybody. Mine coming up in 30 mins or so.

Gone for Had To Be Hugo - 5.05 Uttoxeter Win
In form. Last race was on heavy,he ran like a real stayer and this will be a slog.
Won't take us to the top but I'm relying on pedro's for that
