Plus 8 and dry when driving in.

Tuesday morning brings in our vet for his weekly 'cup of coffee' and this week’s movers and shakers in the BHA charts was Gerard Mentor down 2 to 95.

Mat and I walk up the gallops every morning and now most of our conversation heads to Sport as we have given up on poltics..

Mat goes down the route of the Euros which apparently starts on Friday, while I am still harking on about the lack of wins for the English T20 cricket team…

When Mat talks big and suggests that England T20 World Cup team are just no good and will be out of the competition within the week...I have to remind him that it has been a while since England won anything worthwhile in Football.. Of course, I can remind him what a great year 1966 was..

On opening the door, there is the same little Japanese man thrusts a clipboard under his nose, shouting "You sign! You sign!"

Behind him are TWO very large trucks full of car parts.

This time Nelson loses his temper completely, he picks up the little man by his shirt front and yells at him;
