I’m sorry to say I’m all for the social media curfew for the young ones. I caught one of the grandkids punting a no hoper that a Twitter tipster had put up and hit the roof, locked the lad in his room with a form book. The tipsters nag won at 40/1 but that’s beside the point

Cheltenham festival is a reflection of Britain as a fractured isle.
A day out to the Gloucestershire racetrack is like an episode of The Only Way is Essex, populated by people who believe they would star in an episode of Peaky Blinders.

Funnily enough I have a Racing Mount Rushmore in the back garden because Brian said he knew someone who’d do it on the cheap. I asked for Fred Archer, Gordon Richards, Lester and Julie Camacho. Imagine my shock when the bloke gave me four Mick Easterbys!
I haven’t been at all well the last few weeks, so much so that I’ve hardly had a punt. Bed ridden and miserable. Brian came to see me yesterday and invoiced me £12,000!
“What’s that for, son?!”, “I’ve been getting your bets on while you’ve been bed ridden”. “I haven’t wanted anything on!”. “I’ve been punting the nags I thought you might have punted yourself”. He isn’t half a cheeky bastard
I’m too old to stay up/wake up at 4 for the Melbourne Cup so I’m putting one of you in charge of tweeting #manlikehenk if Flatten the Curve obliges. If I time my next three tins of Mackesons right there’s a chance I might wake up for a piss at 3:57
being homeless and sleeping at rest stops the last few months was mostly smooth sailing but i’ll never forget this guy waking me up at 4 AM and trying to get into my car
One of my grandsons has just shown me this with tears in his eyes “PlayStation Nicky Henderson is going to give me nightmares”. I think it’s a disgrace subjecting children to this
I am absolutely bowled over by this. This is the best racing promotion I've seen from @TheJockeyClub for years. Huge credit to @Sandownpark for this brilliant advert for two wonderful days. Proving the absolute key ingredient of our wonderful sport. The Horse. See you there!
People with no socks on shouting “wages” after having a score on an even money jolly is no environment for children. I prefer to take the grandkids to a Tuesday night Southwell card to punt their pocket money after doing my brains all day
