  1. No it was with my first real girlfriend..😂
  2. So you are now a economist, not that they are worth more than three pence!
  3. Must have been a bloody big one!
  4. Rubbish
  5. Something doesn’t add up does it? The Stipes need to front up and quickly in my opinion.
  6. Sadly we will follow like sheep! Why the modern NZ'er can mostly only follow I don't know? [Jacinda Ardern excepted] Why we think Australian's are better administrators [TAB and NZTR] I don't know? Once upon a time NZ led the way in so many things from giving Women the vote, to conquering Everest, to discovering the proton or splitting the atom as it was colloquially known, when I was a kid.
  7. Talking about the Cambridge AWT, I see that the horse Tar And Cement who won his trial there by 10 lengths 22 December, then went to Hastings 28 January and was hugely impressive, running the fastest sectionals [600 m & 800 m] all day. Leg Up [Trackside] yesterday morning made him their Maiden of the Week. Maybe we need to consider the AWT form after all, especially if they win on it well. P.S. John Gosden isn't afraid to use them in England for his very best, using it to kick off Enable's career and then using it again for her first start in 2020.
  8. Freda, are you talking about the course proper at Riccarton when you say; "Doesn't need fixing". "It's fine".
  9. ????
  10. Tell us more. I saw and spoke to him and his partner at the Te Aroha trials 1 December and wondered why he wasn’t riding there. (Didn’t ask him though as I thought that he may have been suspended) Anyway he has ridden since so what is going on? Maybe family life now means more.....just guessing!
  11. How did it look to you Freda?
  12. Thanks Curious for your response, also the other contributors too. I am an old timer!
  13. Excuse my ignorance, but what’s the difference between Blinkers and a Visor? Is a hood the same as either? Thanks.
  14. An exchange between a society lady and Winston: "Winston you are drunk" "Lady you are ugly, but in the morning I will be sober"
  15. Thanks Curious for a very full answer. I don’t know what more they could have done! Basically I was quoting Greg Purcell from a few years back but as he’s not here to defend himself so I had better withdraw that (what I think Greg said) before I spread false information. Onwards and upwards Foxton, see you at the next trials, all going well.
  16. Brian de Lore is my number one choice. They turned him down in favor of the CEO of the Warriors [Boy George] last time. Surely they couldn't get it that wrong again? DB
  17. I don't know! From what I have been told in the past; Is, that ever since their stand was destroyed by their caretaker, they haven't accepted any offer from NZTR to move forward. I presume that they also had their stand insured, so they should have a large sum of money sitting in the bank that could be re-invested in the place! Now I am not criticizing them as I don't know all the facts, plus I like that my one horse trained in the CD, trialing there just as much as I like it having the availability the Levin jump outs. Leggy, please bring us up to date as you are close to the coalface, I understand. DB [Not Darryl Bradley]
  18. I was told that it was because the Poly people were based in Australia and the Tapeta weren’t!
  19. If that is true put the pressure on Saundry to come clean or get him to prove otherwise.
  20. Thank you for the political party broadcast, albeit a bit misleading.
  21. I would say a bullseye!

  23. Freda, maybe I should have said.....for summing it up perfectly.
  24. Freda, that’s the best posting that I have ever read on any of the sites in all the years that I have been participating. Well done for summing it up so beautifully. Beau
  25. I think that my trainer was one of those that wanted the Guineas to go North. Justify it or not, if my horse is good enough he will be there, he will be, with or without the trainer.
