Where I live has its draw backs.
I’m next to horse stables, the bus doesn’t seem to have a timetable, and the flat is smaller than a Japanese closet.
However I do live 120 metres from Flemington racecourse.
Which most of the year means nothing. But when its Melbourne cup carnival it’s a whole different kettle of fish, what ever that means.
Since I live so close to the track that the good people at the VRC decided to give me free tickets to the whole carnival.
So I trotted over for the Melbourne cup, Australia’s most over rated race, and watched Lloyd Williams owned Efficient get home ahead of the three horses I backed.
Funny thing about horse racing, you’d think I’d get something for having the incredible intellect to back three horses out of 24 that came 2nd, 3rd and 4th.
Apparently not.
It’s always good to see Aussie Battler like Lloyd win a big race. Warms my heart.
Lucky for me, when I got home there was some good news for me that Brad Hogg, (part of the brad pack) was left out of the 13.
13 is my lucky number George.
And for the perverts, the breastages were on display at the races, but it was a skanky day compared with Derby day,
Hopefully Oakes day makes up for it.
Apparently Jennifer Hawkins is the face of the carnival, and if she isnt, its still a nice photo.
I have a very reliable source who told me that Uncle J-Rod and Sime (that guy who blogs once in a while) are teaming up in a game of indoor cricket soon? Can we get this confirmed and will a detailed blog be submitted outlining the results???
Its a possibility. Watch this space.
When Lohann (sp?) was featured in here, I kind of knew who was coming next. And guess what, Paris Hilton was gracing the pages the very next day, just as I had guessed.I knew Scarlett was coming. She came. I often wondered why Hawkins never made it. Well, she finally did.Wow, I am enjoying the guessing.So who’s next? Something tells me it’s Jessica Simpson.
Funny you should say that, Jessica simpson almost got in, but i went with Hawkins cause i saw her pics all over the race course.
Alba! Alba! Alba!
