    We need some more dedicated threads me thinks. We should have a dedicated aftertiming thread. And a ladbrokes promotions thread come to think of it.

    The funniest thing of all is people putting a tip or a fancy up,if it wins they had a wedge on it,if it lose,s they only had small change on it

    You can predict a lot by just going online the night before, seeing what's backed, then framing a story around it the next day and boom it appears online here with amazing regularity. I'm sure the knowledgeable can see this after observing for a while. For those dipping in and out, they may not care a jot.

    I do love the "but my main bet was on x" from 6 selections and I "ended up for the day". Would make the minister for information in Iraq during Saddams fall blush :)

    About every other month but mostly just connecting on a flight. What do you want to do there?
    South beach is expensive. Stayed there once but that was for a wedding about 10 yrs ago in one of those upmarket spots, Delano's. Your as well off staying away from there and getting a cab in to amble about south beach for the day. When I go for a weekend, I stay at Marriott dadeland, not expensive, there is a mall next door and that keeps the Mrs busy. The other spot is doubletree Hilton by sawgrass mills mall. Did you guess it's the Mrs who dictates my life?

    A further attack in Germany. The fruits of Merkel's daft proclamation last year is now coming home to roost. No doubt she will blame everyone but herself

    You said nothing to do with playing hurling, or am I having a blonde moment?

    Where is the Slattsy money going today? War decree has been backed again like he was last time as if defeat is out of the question. I stuck with boynton though maybe this faster course will suit the o Brien yoke more.

    I don't really bet on Galway, other than the Plate & Hurdle.

    At the 3s Boynton possibly an each way steal, I thought he won well last time.
