Thanks Art. See you above over the Christmas. I'll be the guy with the Miles Davis tee-shirt.

He made his debut in the last season of an Irish Sunday night institution about farm life in rural Ireland called 'The Riordans' and continued for a few years in a spin off called 'Bracken.' Bracken eventually morphed into the greatest telly series ever, Glenroe thereby defining Sunday nights in...

Off the top of me noggin Barjon: The Story of Mill Reef: John Oaksey. I was very marginally interested in racing as a young teenager and picked this up at the local library and was hooked on the sport by the finish. I distinctly recall it was the first time I encountered the word 'pugnacious'...

I collect racing books. Excluding mags and Timeform etc I have over 100. A good source can be in the book section of charity shops.

There was something going on where customers in a shop were being given a free bet if they loudly made eejits of themselves. Between that and roulette and cartoon racing it was as ear splitting as a bag of cats. Sheer...

My Missus asked me for a double entendre last night so I gave her one.

Watched the Oscar nominated 'The Holdovers' last night. Very well worth your time. Paul Giacametti as usual fabulous.

I had an impressively cold pint of Cruzcampo for €3 sitting outside under deep blue skies in a square in Nerja on Sunday. Shame the thermometer had only risen to 24 but you can't have it all.
