With a bit of weighting, new positions: Top Holland +2.9 2nd Argentina +2.81 3rd ENGLAND +2.7 Not the worst forecast, the numbers might have predicted. MR2

Just spent a few hours watching episodes of 'The New Statesman', dated humour but simply fantastic. Sadly missed - MR2

I found courtesy of 'Fantasy Football Scout' a table of average goals for/goals against in qualifying. Maybe not measuring like for like, but taking the difference and then sorting (excluding Brazil of course) gave: Top Holland +2.9 2nd ENGLAND +2.7 3rd Germany +2.6. I'm going to find a...

My view, clouded by 'in my time things were better', is that there is too much racing, I appreciate that the economics demand 4 meetings every day but quality suffers so: 1) Get rid of the all weather, can anyone suggest its been a roaring success - NO - stick with the turf tradition and three...

If they don't give it back, could they be charged with 'handling stolen goods?'

These are the same people who refused me any more promotional offers, my 25p 'yankees' were obviously too much of a risk and who, subsequently, tried several times to get me to place bets with them. Boylesports was and is a 'numpty' of an organisation. MR2

Very appreciative, Bar. Looking forward to spending a few hours selecting my teams. I'm busy at the moment looking at PP top scorer offer (£5 free bet for every goal). My first inclination is towards Costa and Messi! GLTA - MR2

I ha issues with PP at about that time, slow loading. MR2

Sounds like you've been through the mill, best wishes for a great recovery Colin. MR2

Sorry, DG.

Well DO, I do make a small profit and contrary to many peoples view and indeed logic I use trends. But firstly I discount any horse less than 10/1 and then apply certain trends to see what falls out. I perceive that people may think that past results cannot predict trends but in my view trends...

Salmond & Sturgeon will be choking on their porridge tomorrow, thinking about those huge pay risers they will not be getting as chief executives of all those committees running an independent country. Carney gave them such hope a few weeks ago but then ... How much gold do you need to...

Lets get those customs barriers up now! Independence should be INDEPENDENCE not a half-arsed 'pound' comfort zone. MR2

I think I tempted to believe Lord Smith in that, with the hundreds of millions spent over the last ten years, 1.5 million homes have been saved this dreadful flooding situation whilst unfortunately 5000 homes have not. To me, emotions apart, I think that's a win. Pickles seems intent on...

The Somerset floods seem to be entering a blame game, I prefer to place guilt at the supernatural portal for instance ‘The Great Thunderstorm’ of 1638 when the church of St Pancras was set alight by lightning. My interest was drawn by the mix of extreme weather, gambling, horses and strangers...

Daft question I know but if what I hear is true that 'parts of the Somerset Levels are below sea-level' how will dredging help. Will dredging just make the river more tidal? MR2

Looks so flat on the Somerset Levels could we not build our much needed airport there with a superfast rail link to London. Solve so many problems in one fowl swoop. MR2

What's your problem with it? MR2

I get hooked on numbers and when I heard that the standing water on the Somerset levels amounted to 125,000 olympic swimming pools and the pumps are removing one such swimming pool every hour - its going to take a long time. But assuming the River Parrett is about 50 miles long, if you stacked...
