Did you fact check that one as well with Adrian? Don’t let the closed doors of HQ get you down. Funstar will put a smile on that scowling wrinkled face soon.

Those type of competitions don’t interest me. I prefer short stuff’s “Losers get Laid”. It’s a lot more straight forward and I only normally concentrate on a small number of races anyway. Funstar ran exceptionally well. Got a mile back which I wasn’t expecting and finished off quicker than anything else in the race on the inside inferior ground. She’ll live to fight another day.

The Fokkers Nemesis 16 Report post Posted April 14, 2020 CT’s story makes this thread whiff a bit, the owner of the $4700 would likely have been found in about half an hour via the hundreds of security cameras around casinos.

The issue is once the Crown employee had looked back through the security camera footage could they be trusted to find the owner of the ticket or would they just pocket it for themselves without saying a word? Anyway we’ve been over this and if it happened again I would hand the ticket into the Police as I’ve previously stated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good neighbour working from home (before it became fashionable) noticed this strange car cruising up and down the road, and took photos of the car, the perps loading flat screen TV etc, and one zoomed in on the rego plate, while it was stopped at our place. Brought the pics over when he saw the Police arrive just after we got home. As soon as they saw the pics they said "we know who this is", so went and visited them the next morning. After searching the house they found one door with a farm gate type bolt on it, padlocked. "What's this door locked for?" the cops asked. "So nobody steals our stuff bro" came the reply. Sure enough, inside was our stuff, and a heap of stuff belonging to other visitors as well. The burglars were worried about getting robbed!!

talk 308 Report post Posted April 15, 2020 Extract from article in the Telegraph about Former trainer, Giles Bravery As a trainer, Bravery enjoyed his biggest moment when Torgau won the Cherry Hinton and was Cartier two-year-old of the year in 1999. He picked up the award the night his daughter Lily, now a singing student at the Royal Academy of Music, was born, making it quite a day. He was a regular subject of this racing diary, most notably on the occasion when he and his wife Fiona decided they needed to join a gym in Newmarket. Like the ducks in Paris, they were a bit out of water, it not being their natural habitat. Fiona was on a bike on one side of the gym while Giles was on a treadmill the other side when, beginning to glow, he decided to take off his sweater – without taking the practical precaution of stopping the machine. The jumper was halfway over his head when he lost his balance and the treadmill, ticking along at an impressive 10 kilometres per hour, spat him out like a human cannonball into the wall of the wall of gym where he lay, crumpled and struggling. Not only could he not see because the jumper was over his head, his arms were such that what was not blinding him had him trussed up like a straitjacket. Meanwhile, the woman peddling next to Fiona passed the observation that “the poor man over there has had a heart attack”. Despite having taken vows involving “in sickness and in health” (and this situation could have been construed as a bit of both), Fiona’s loyalty did not extend, on this occasion, even to admitting that she knew the “victim”.

JOT 47 Report post Posted April 15, 2020 In the early 90’s I been looking to buy a Ford Falcon ute and came across one at a car retail business in Auckland. I knew the car salesman from a previous place we had worked at so negotiated a price and told him I’ll collect the ute the next day. When I went back to get the vehicle, the car salesman was in heavy discussion with 2 young blokes about a car they wanted to purchase. When he eventually got to me, he tells me the 2 blokes want him to hold the car till Monday and by then, they will have the money in cash to purchase it. He asked why Monday and they said they have a horse running in the 1st at Ellerslie which will pay for the car. So he tells me the horse, I look it up and it had no form, drawn wide but David Peake was on it. In the race it sat 3 and 4 wide, went to the outside rail on the turn and bolted in paying 18’s. I didn’t have a cent on it but I did tell a mate about the horse who made enough off it to leave his missus for his girlfriend (which he endlessly regales to me when drunk). Missed opportunity.
