  12. Racing was priority then! On a Saturday night on the zb network in the 80s George balarney used to have a $20 bet giveaway which I won once when I was 14 they used to cover live the 2 double legs race 6 & 8 and 3rd treble leg race 10 , George would ring the person at just after the 7pm news and you would give your selections live on Radio.. I took a $12 3x2x2 treble and an $8 DBL 2x4 missed the treble and got concession dble it was at forbury park. A week later got a cheque for $32 ...that was a lot of space invaders games for me at my local Torbay fish and chip shop!

I was never a fan of the radio pacific callers, Alby, George, Murray burns, Paul Davies, Kevin Payne..I used to tune in to 3zb in CHCH or 4zb in Dunedin from Auckland in the 80s on my dad's radio (very crackly )to listen to reon or Lachie Marshall calling even though I could listen to radio pacific crisp and clear, but found r.p callers very boring.
