I am sorry for the slight absence over the last few days but...
Somehow I have managed to catch Man Flu.
Not too sure how that happened as I've hardly been out and have worn a mask every time I've done so.
As a result I've spent most of the last four days in bed, either being too hot or, too cold.
Am feeling better today and...
I think that normal service has resumed.
I have to admit that I am reeling a bit from the results of the 13:10 at Punchestown yesterday.
Not only did the top rated Focus Ratings horse in that race come first at 28/1 but the second rated horse came second. The forecast paid €400.14.
Syace was also a Diamonds and Gold selection...

Something to make you smile...
Why some men have dogs and not wives...
1. The later you are, the more excited your dogs are to see you.
2. Dogs don't notice if you call them by another dog's name.
3. Dogs like it if you leave a lot of things on the floor.
4. A dog's parents never visit.
5. Dogs agree that you have to raise your voice to get your point across.
6. You never have to wait for a dog; they're ready to go 24 hours a day.
7. Dogs find you amusing when you're drunk.
8. Dogs like to go hunting and fishing.
9. A dog will not wake you up at night to ask, If I died, would you get another dog??
10. If a dog has babies, you can put an ad in the paper and give them away.
11. A dog will let you put a studded collar on it without calling you a pervert.
12. If a dog smells another dog on you, they don't get mad. They just think it's interesting..
13. Dogs like to ride in the back of a pickup truck.
And last, but not least:
14. If a dog leaves, it won't take half of your stuff.

Whatever you are up to today...
Stay safe and healthy.
As always...
