Did anyone read Chris Wallers concerns re Jockeys & Stablehands on Racenet. He made perfect sense to me. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TooFast 1,252 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 (edited) Thank you my friends for your kind words of congratulations. It's been a long time between drinks, but the racing gods were kind to me this time around. I'll be savouring the success for sure, because we all know well that one week you can be the rooster ....the next week you can end up a feather duster. After being consistently right amongst it for the first 7 rounds, today was a bit of a "damp squib" (both literally and figuratively) for me, but fortunately I'd done a bit of a 'Kotare Chief', and had built up a sufficient lead that it was going to be very, very difficult to be caught. Many, many thanks to PJ for this latest instalment of his brilliantly entertaining and immaculately administered comps. Year-round pleasure for all of us who take part. Life would be a whole lot less fun without these comps, that's for sure. I can't wait for the next comp, and in due course I'm imagining the return of a lethal-looking .'Mighty Blues' line-up. Rees is sound asleep now, giving me a very clear message, but before I sign off just a word of congratulations to the bro Geoff for his sterling performances right through and for being such a good sport with all the good-natured 'banter' flowing this way and that right through the comp. Congrats also to top place-getters Punter Pete, Richie and Von Smallhausen whose performances were epic right through. Thanks again, folks. 🙂 Edited January 3 by TooFast 11 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks again, folks. 🙂 Tis not only Rees who has been sent to sleep by this short novel, Lord Howie, but most of the civilised world and an occasionally pesky Mustelid. How(ie()ever, Max always speaks Truth to Power, so I now add my personal hearty CONGRATS to you for this brilliant win in a very difficult Comp - so many distractions could've got in the way (and clearly did affect some of us), but your ability to keep your eyes on the prize, sidestepping the Boxing Day Sales and the left-over trifle, the explosive arrival of the New Year, and the slings and arrows of Sibling Rivalry ... ...mate, you turned up Trumps and can bask in the well-deserved Glow of Victory. Well done. MM 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You’re a true Gentleman letting me win like that 😉 It’s been a few years break from this racing game for me but with more time on my hands again and a renewed interest, particularly following the Redwoods & a baby Wood of our own again, I’m enjoying re-familiarising myself with the GeeGees once more and have had a few giggles the past couple of days reading the Banter here. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
