Why horse racing is better than football.

1) Racing fans don't pick fights with other fans
2) You could take your Granny to the races and not have to worry about violence or bad language
3) The entry fee for the races hasn't skyrocketed to the point where it is barely affordable.
4) There is no need for police presence (at cost to the tax payer!) at race meetings
5) Jockeys don't fake injuries
6) When a jockey wins a race he doesn't run around with a ridiculous expression on his face (usually open mouthed in some sort of Neanderthal roar) nor does he expect other jockeys to hug him or leap on him with their arms and legs wrapped around him, neither does he seem to think it appropriate to pull his shirt over his head.
7) Jockeys don't feel the need to spit and gob all over the place

Jockeys that arrive for 'work' in helicopters?

Anyway you're barred!! smile

Anne58 Thu 02-Jan-14 17:38:44

Oooh and I suppose that I imagined hearing about football players involved in match fixing....................

At least when a jockey falls he either gets up quickly or doesn't, none of that rolling around in fake agony, poncey over paid prima donnas

Pete Thu 02-Jan-14 17:35:45

Most races are as bent as a nine-bob note..........so I overheard...

Extra large one coming up Nonu ...... could you bring your pint pot back to the bar only the dishwasher is broke.....seems she went shopping with Lona.... grin

Lona Thu 02-Jan-14 17:33:28

I hardly drink p, so I get my kicks in other ways.

Anne58 Thu 02-Jan-14 17:25:10

I'd rather have champers than expensive eye shadow!

Although at present I'd join a queue just to have a sniff of the cork.

Lona Thu 02-Jan-14 17:13:11

Nonu with all the champers you quaff no wonder you can only afford £1.99! grin

Lona Thu 02-Jan-14 17:11:31

Of course I am Nonu xx

Pete sorry to have turned the Bar into a cosmetic counter for a while, but at least we didn't slag off footie or mention horses! grin

Nonu Thu 02-Jan-14 17:09:07

Forgive me I will have an EXTRA large one Pete , before I can pluck up courage to ask price before discount !!
Stone the crows , I feel daring spending £1.99 on "Miss Sporty "
grin wink wink

Nonu Thu 02-Jan-14 17:04:56

You know you are worth it DEAR !!
xx

Lona Thu 02-Jan-14 16:53:53

Ana It's called Quartz by Sisley.

phoenix The rest of my makeup is Rimmel or Maybelline grin

Anne58 Thu 02-Jan-14 16:49:22

At that price I would expect it to come with it's own applicator, and I don't mean a plastic stick with foam on the end!

Ana Thu 02-Jan-14 16:39:27

What colour is it? envy

Lona Thu 02-Jan-14 16:37:23

Well, she is a mate and she did give me discount!
I've had it before and it is lovely.
I haven't spent any money for ages so I don't feel at all guilty or stupid
grin

Pete Thu 02-Jan-14 16:28:22

Bet the sales assistant hasn't stopped laughing....grin

Anne58 Thu 02-Jan-14 16:02:24

GOOD GRIEF! shock

Ana Thu 02-Jan-14 15:59:50

Was that in the sales, Lona? shock

Yes, I'd have thought you deserved a large stiff one after such recklessness...hmm

Lona Thu 02-Jan-14 15:56:01

A very small eyeshadow!
I know!!!!
grin

Thanks Pete I enjoyed that............. should have had a large one!
wink

Anne58 Thu 02-Jan-14 15:53:31

£28 on what???? Can't find any reference to what it is! My interest is all piqued now!

Nonu Thu 02-Jan-14 15:48:17

Pete Thu 02-Jan-14 15:21:15
