Plus 6 and dry when driving in.

We had a slight problem in the office yesterday.

Ed Cookson has been ogling at the photos on the office wall for years and has suddenly realised that there was not one single photo of him from his race riding days hanging there to be admired.. Rectified..

Such A Legend who won a bumper at Kempton ridden by Ed arrived in the office (picture not SAL!) and Ed with the help of Maya knocked a nail into the wall and hung it....Ed is now happy..

PS Ed..Tom Bellamy has been on the wall for ages!

Mike Evans who owns Royal Shipton walked up to see us with his granddaughter Thea Barker.. Thea fed Law Of Supply and Clondaw General the remains of her apple.

We gave Jeudidee a jump over hurdles as he runs tomorrow back over hurdles.

Kevin Clancy and Stephen Cannon were here second lot to see their two horses Two For Gold and Amazing Cleni.. Maya cooked them breakfast..

Lovely message..

Once upon a time!

When Window was just a square hole in a room and Application was something written on a paper.

When Keyboard was a Piano and Mouse just an animal.

When File was an important office material and Hard Drive just an uncomfortable road trip.

When Cut was done with knife and Paste with glue.

When Web was a spider's home and Virus was flu.

When Apple and Blackberry were just fruits - that's when we had a lot of time for family and friends.
