Did work a block away from the race course from late 2007 till mid 2014 and the sites you would see especially after the crowd spilled out of the races at the end of the day was amazing, some really classy ladies then
    Still just as ''classy'' H ...only difference I notice is they've got younger and I've got older.

      Randwick used to be my favourite with the big outdoor auditorium, so much character. Then they redeveloped and 'modernised' it and its a shadow of the old days for the average racegoer. So disappointment.

      Rosehill definitely my favourite track these days, and closer to my current digs. Could walk there, have to do that one day. Have brunch at Paz on root.
      I mapped out the walk for you Jack and it's just over an hour. Sigh..I miss my one hour evening walks...

      I'll bet all the eateries in Parra have changed since our family lived out there.

        Yes seen plenty of that over the years I must say Mrs Walker was a site staggering out of the racecourse to the taxi rank after guzzling a bottle of champagne Mind you she maintained her class and if a woman cannot guzzle a bottle of champagne after we got the 1st four in race 6 which paid upwards of $2700 when can they ? Followed up by a large bet on Snapback which was narrowly beaten at 15-1 But we then got the Quinella in the QLD Derby with Kovalica and FAME ( WE LOVE YOU IRENE ) Thinking of this I have to celebrate by sharing a sing song Im sure you all only need one guess what it will be

            These ladies used to like vodka cruisers or the like and also like squatting on the concrete medium strip in the middle of the Anzac Parade or falling into either taxis or into on coming traffic coming along Anzac parade, even more fun if there was only one staff member on which was usually me trying to tell people who have already had a skin full that you can't serve them.

                          I would dispute that it wasn’t cold but agree that the sun hid most of the day. I just thought it was a pretty ordinary day. I much prefer winter days when there is some blue sky. The weather looks great for the weekend though. Hope you have a
                          great time at Tuross.

                            • A brilliant day here today reaching a top of 18. Got all my washing dry outside without having to bring it inside and drape it over the ducted heating vents.
