Re: The Children's Off Topic Thread
They say there are winners and losers in any sport but in reality there are no losers when you have enjoyed 4 days of the best NH racing you will see anywhere in the world.
There were some fantastic stand out performances..Sprinter Sacre, Duvan, Vatour, Don Cossack to name a few. Victoria Pendelton did well to finish a fast finishing 5th in her race.
Like a fool I promised my daughter a kayaking drysuit if I did well at Cheltenham so that's my winnings taken care of.
Last but not least thanks to qb for highlighting the ups and downs of racing

Off home in a minute - wonder whether it has dried up enough to get a bit of digging done? Really ought to be getting some seed potatoes and onion sets in.
Interesting fact no74 - the traditional time for planting new potato seed is St Patrick's Day

My neighbour has gone on holiday in Communicado. I had to look it up on google, and apparently it's not far from Cognito.
