    Car MOT dilemma…

    Ha no! I wanted SJC 7 for my fav footballer but couldn't get it so had my nickname the family call me.

    Car MOT dilemma…

    As DO says it may be worth something but if not on a vehicle, or vehicle recorded as scrapped I think, you need to pay to keep the registration number 'alive' every year. I had a personalised number plate a few years ago, took it off when swapped cars but had to pay to keep it every year. It...

    TV coverage

    This maybe me, and I accept that, but I wish they would stop bringing up the death of Kim Gingell. I felt so sorry for young Freddie today, hard enough with losing your mother at 14 , never mind people bringing it up every time they speak to him/he's riding.

    I might have to multi vote for him to eat things so he'll give up! If Farage goes in no one else stands a chance - she said as if she knew what she was talking about!

    Everything crossed for him, hoping ITU is a precaution.

    Frankie Dettori Retirement Year Thread

    I've only ever watched any of those when an actor I really liked was in one of them and he didn't last very long, never watched them otherwise but get the premise. Some of them receive £250k for doing it, can't see him taking a lot less than that.

    Frankie Dettori Retirement Year Thread

    That might be interesting if I ever watched it, to see how long he could keep up a charade of being lovable Frankie?

    Coolmore will pay it for him, not even a fifth of the covering fee AR going to stand for.

    Car MOT dilemma…

    The price of second hand cars since the 'lockdown' lifted have gone through the roof. A nephew who dealt in them abandoned the business as auction prices just stupid so £2000 to get yours fixed perhaps not a lot of money. My usual garage advised me for years re things needed doing in x miles...

    Dear England, currently on stage at the Prince Edward theatre in Londonium, will be in cinemas on 25th January, once the west end run ends. Recorded at the National production, if it is on in a cinema near you, I urge you to go and see it. Don't be put off if not a football fan, it's about so...

    Henry V at the Globe - BBC having a bit of a Bard fest - this nicely done, some nice supporting performances and Jamie Parker, altho not Sir Ken, does a nice job as Harry leading his band of brothers.

    Champions day Ascot 2023

    There was a couple of foster mares where I worked, and one was a big coloured cob. She had a foal by Singspiel one year ( and his fee was ridiculous at the time - yes I know no one obviously had to pay for it, I'm just saying ) called Paddy who was the most gorgeous, soft hulk of a foal ever...

    Frankie Dettori Retirement Year Thread

    It's always been about the attention. Saturday, in a way, was the worst thing that could have happened. His ego won't take the lack of adoration for long. Was talking to someone earlier today who is very well known in the industry as in been around a long time, knows almost everyone, and is...

    dream alliance film

    Agree would be a great film but wondering if someone somewhere has thought of it but think it wouldn't make a commercial success as the story is quite well known and so wouldn't get bums on seats maybe? Not sure how much they spent on Dream Alliance but think it wouldn't have had a huge appeal...

    dream alliance film

    Could totally relate to the ' come on my baby boy' although I was known to say it seriously louder - the scream when he won from Jan was totally me, and the tears- they were far calmer! Thinking must be the film but wouldn't believe they didn't go and see him/be on the phone twice a day...

    May would be the bet I would think, back in time for the first classic.

    Ditto. Really glad for the horse but not him. He milked everything all day and I'd bet now he'll be back next year. Art Power - absolutely fantastic, so, so brave, really dug in bless him. Picture in the prelims. Brilliant for Sam James - looked as if he couldn't believe it. Ryan Moore...
