    We are living in very dangerous times. As for harness racing and racing as a rule if they cant run their business properly and if lockdowns like this one continue off and on it's got to have some lasting damage on the whole industry and it ain't that healthy now.

    Interesting listening briefly to zb, a guy from the South Island hacked off with this control freak,Adern continuing to stuff the economy by grinding it to a halt, in his words saying it's only a matter of time before China take us over, they created this virus and stand to be the great benefactors in the aftermath, so while my post about 2041 may seem humorous the reality is we are heading for doomsday if we continue with these numbskulls in Wellington.

    Now that you mentioned Italy and horse racing, here is a question, how many places have horse racing, I know I can google but for now I can't be bothered.

    Who would read all that🤔

    I told them they can shove it up there arse, they said they would do if it was for tetanus.

    Gee if Auckland stay in lockdown too long they might close Alexandra Park and reopen Forbury which may well be problematical as what to do with it.

    Here's a question, anyone here had the jab.

    Ok its year 2041, the Chinese who have taken over New Zealand have decided that horse racing is no longer relevant for New Zealand so have decided to cull out racehorse, the task has been made easier by the fact everybody gave up ten years earlier because the lockdown which lasted 8 years was just too tough on owners trainers and club finances.😁

    I see the Andertons have some runners at this stage for Ashburton,what are the rules as in travel, there are one or two other southerners in the fields as well.

    Maybe someone has stated this fact but I think and I might be wrong but fast work is frowned on because if you have a accident then because the hospitals are so full up that they can't or may not be able to come to your aid, or something like that, I may be wrong on that.

    Racing without crowds, a fairly common occurence now anyway😄

    Half the time I tune in to senz it's just reruns ,why they don't dedicate a proper Raceday coverage is beyond me,it's no problem having cricket for about 8 hours non stop,why not racing,they don't have commentaries or anything from Aussie,if the TAB could broadcast races what's the problem then,people who are diehard race followers will get their blanket coverage off the simulcast on website or rova app,senz app,etc etc if they want to push their rating then first thing is to pull their finger out of their fucking arsehole.

    Talking about reminiscing,I see Tom T Hall has died,music was good them days as well.

    Just to add I now and then look back at the results,the harness site is very good for that,somehow I think harness racing has been in a spiral down for a long time,I know we must live in the present but looking back one wonders why it's got to the state it's in.

    What time of year was that race,a c9.i think greymouth raced,October,and March,new year I think too,open class trotters raced at Greymouth often as well.

    Is it just me but something about the Cup and harness racing from those times that seemed so much better than today's racing

    I havnt had one of those offers in yonks

    I see 2 arrested in Northland for not wearing a mask,I guess it's not easy for the supermarket workers who are in contact with so many people everyday,especially in the hot spots,many probably dont wear them properly as it is,I just see a guy in cook islands on the news not even having his nose covered,its all a bit confusing to me.
  19. mikeynz
    Are they funny or sad.it must pretty hot in their dress code,can't even go to the pub for a cold one.
  20. mikeynz
    I went to the shop today, I learn that mask are compulsory after midnight,the owner says they need to enforce the rules or. they will get in the shit,I ain't ever worn one,things like that make feel awkward,I wonder if wore a burqa if that would suffice,I'm looking for a new hat soon anyway.

    Getting back to Afghanistan,pretty unreal scenes really,people holding on to the plane as it takes off,not the sort of place you would want to be if you develop a itchy nose,kind of sad that sections of human beings could behave at such levels just to get away from a criminal gang who have strolled into town,what a mess.
  22. mikeynz
    I wonder what covid is like in Afghanistan at the moment,dont think they would give a fuck at present.
  23. mikeynz
    So they are redoing the calandar,but will anything be any different? By my reckoning Easter will still be at Easter,winter will still be at the same time of the year,so what changes are people expecting?
  24. mikeynz
    Seems to me Oamaru and Timaru seem to get the poor rub of the green,last year they had Riccarton 2 weeks apart and Wingatui and Gore on the alternate weeks,seem to go ok,

    The TAB are an interesting organisation,last year in a greyhound race at invercargill they had the place a win bet on a race and if you get 2nd to 4th you get you bet back in bonuses,strangely only four started,be interesting to see if there was a spike in betting on that one.
