Ah well the races are over , what a week , visitors from Britain , the States and all over Ireland coming round and eating me out of house and home .
Some winners , some losers but lots of Porter![]()
The kids absolutely cleaned up at the bookies so no more pocket money for them for the next two months![]()
Now finally to top it all the Tribesmen stuffed Tipp in the hurling so another excuse for a day out in two weeks timeAnd to top it all I went to the bookies next to my local to collect after winnings on the last three races at Galway , 5 minutes before the bookies had to shut because he got absolitely slaughtered by a complete outider in Cork
hilarious , one minute a huge crowd is dancingin the street , the next minute they are trying to breakdown the doors of the bookies , perfect timing

if only the car hadn't been wrecked and the temporary replacement car wasn't such a heap of rubbish (Nissan Micra , it was the only automatic they had) .
Still , no more work until the 9th so just enough time to unwind a little and get back to normal .
