Festival Meet Up

[Grasshopper]

Selfishly, Thursday would be best, but can make a gathering on Wednesday if that's preferred.

 

[Grey]

My hand is raised

 

[Maruco]

You'll be exhausted walking the six paces out the door Art.

 

[frontrunner]

Wed /Thurs is fine for me

 

[an capall]

I'm free on Monday and Saturday. And most other days.

 

[baldeagle]

I will be hovering around Tues Wed Thursday so whatevers good

 

[jinnyj]

There Tuesday in Club Enc. (never turn down free tickets!!) and outside chance of Friday. Already planning to meet the legendary AC, so any further meetups a bonus!

 

[J Mangold]

I'll be there, looking forward to meeting you guys who I have been reading for a long time.

Staying upright is challenge enough

I'm meeting fellow forum member Maruco on the Friday Jinny, before racing, would be nice to meet up with you aswell.

I'm there all week, would prefer to meet before racing at the course though.

We should have hired a marquee at this rate; pity my (or Benny's ) seven did not all win yesterday; we would have the price for it !
Great to see so many attending; we shall talk nicely to the staff at the Mandarin entrance to make the outer section available to all.
I shall be resplendent in my Lord Vestey meets Austin Powers tweed that is part of my NH ritual.

 

[archie]

Wear the fox hat.

I should have an O/T badge on Thursday so will try to put in an appearance.

 

[Perpetual]

We could meet upstairs in the Centaur after racing, Perp?

We'll be there after the last on Tues. Hopefully we get to catch up

 

[Grey]

Noted, see you there

Ran into JinnyJ and her lovely friend yesterday for a few minutes. Great to put a face on the name.

Also met Grey and Edgt and had a very interesting and slightly uncomfortable sales pitch from an English gentlemen on the bus back into town. I'll let the lads fill in the details as I had to be elsewhere, but I hope it all had a happy ending.

Today?

 

[Grey]

Outside the main entrance to the Mandarin is our docking station between races, the lawn area below the famous pole 36 during it.

Looking forward to seeing some of you today. Eddie and I met Ben (Perpetual) and some of his friends for a few minutes yesterday, good people.

As for the gent on the bus, we all parted the best of friends but I've no idea why.

 

[Grasshopper]

They served our nosebag right after the first......will try and get across to Mandarin tomorrow

 

[edgt]

Lovely to have met up again; sorry to miss Jinnyj and a few others who may have been around.
Would there be any benefit in getting "Talking Horses lapel pins" made up for the racegoers among us ?
It might help raise a small contribution towards running this fine forum.
Thoughts ?
