Grand National...
Does anyone actual give a to$$ about the Grand National? The way the media saturates the coverage you would think it's the national sport.

14/1 for 1st? £70 win if so.
Did you pay the tax
FIRST i.e. on the £5 bet fee, and not the winnings?!
What were your 3rd place odds?

The girlfriend has a horse, so naturaly she's has to be out of the house alot down at the stables either looking after it or riding it. That that means she's out of my way and i have peace and quite at home. So yes I think they are fantastic creatures.

List the National up there with the London Marathon, Oxford Boat Race, golf, cricket and the Tour de France. Limited audience but seem to get enormous coverage. Hell, I'd cancel 99% of football coverage too as I can't stand those dimwitted primadonnas.

Playing it's fun, laying on the edge of the pitch outside a country pub on a summers day watching it is great, but sitting at home with it on the telly is BORING !
