    Songs you'd forgot about.

    I had rather forgotten about The Shadows song Let Me Be The One (think it was a Eurovision entry). Thought of it this morning heading out the door to work. Get to work and put the radio on - The Shadows Let Me Be The One is playing!!

    Music - what's the best performance you've ever seen

    I haven't been to many gigs, but the best I've seen would be a toss up between Pink Floyd Earls Court '95 and the full day Oasis gig at Loch Lomond in '96.

    TV coverage

    It took me 5 seconds to look up the correct pronunciation of Gstaad. Perhaps the ITV team could do likewise before he runs again.

    The "Let's Have A Heated Debate Series" - Episode 1: Betting Discipline

    I was told, in my first year betting, that JP McManus had once said that you should never chase losses on the day. Walk away. I've always held that advice (apocryphal or not), to heart.

    Car stuff again..

    Would you throw out good milk a week before it's expiry date cause you only had 2/5ths of the carton left? Just leave it for 4 months and get it checked out again.

    I quite admire the discipline of working to a fixed goal, be that 750 or getting back to zero after suffering losses.

    TV coverage

    I can only see this as a good thing. Whilst I might not like a lot of the coverage (or lack of coverage - I'd prefer to see more analysis pre race), having it on one of the main two TV channels can only be a good thing, and as mentioned previously on this thread, we're getting more racing on...

    Money for jumps

    In what way does a desire to share the knowledge of a good win equate to an ambivalence about the medium in which the win was achieved?

    I'd guess that an example like 1,4,6,9 comes from the Daily Picks thread, which gigilo uses for his selections in much the same way as you're using this one for your lays. I believe it is for use in a placepot where you are selecting all 4 horses based on their racecard numbers. This should come...

    Just when you think the BHA can't get any more stupid and deluded.....

    I have a mate who spends all day in the bookies, most days of the week. He calls it his social club. He doesn't have the cash to gamble every day, but he likes the social aspect of it, from the staff to the punters. They club together and get him a wee bottle of whisky every now and then - the...

    Sorry

    Yes, the new site isn't the greatest - but just focus on the General Racing section and you should be ok.
