scotia on the BIG weekend!
16 years 2 months ago
www.africanbettingclan.com
Good evening to you all, and I am sure you are ready for a massive racing weekend?
Racing on Friday night from Greyville where the Harness racing kicks off plus the Kings Cup, Classic Day at the big T and World Cup night from Dubai with a few good S.A. chances.
However the BIG weekend for scotia is that I have been with Mrs S for 35 years on Sunday, barring accidents, and to think the Cray twins only got 20 years.
I asked the question, "where would you like to go for lunch"? and Mrs S said the Cargo Hold, which happens to be at Ushaka in Durban, see my restaurant post under general. I asked "anything else darling"? She replied "no racing or laptops"!
I booked the flights, arranged a car and accommodation at Umhalanga and booked the restaurant and as fate would have received an invite to the racing on Friday at Greyville, which we could hardly refuse?
I also have a small share in a runner on Sunday at Scottsville, but that would be pushing my luck, hope the Cargo Hold has tellytrack?
I have been assured that the guest house does have full dstv, but as we are just chilling (few sleeping tablets in the gin) should make no difference.
If my memory serves me well, the first date we had I took Mrs S to the dog racing at Powerderhall in Edinburgh and the second date to a movie, A horse named Nijinsky, so as Mick Hucknell would say "if you don't know me by now"?
So back to the racing Friday, hope to meet some of the A.B.C.posters at the track on Friday, its a cash bar, so you can buy me a drink.
I will keep my racing posts directly on the site as soon as the tablets kick in.
Wally, will see you at the Beach Hotel, but don't mention horses.
good punting!
