Sad news about Marianne Faithful. Ballad of Lucy Jordan is a favourite of mine. ‘At the age of 37 she knew she’d found forever, as she rode along through Paris with the warm wind in her hair’

It’s difficult to make predictions especially about the future’ But in 2025 I’ll retire after almost 50 years of work. And I’ll be at the races as a racehorse owner. And I’ll still love Alyson. No real plans after that. Take care spread a smile when you can.

Need #Leeds and #Rangers to get £150 acca up. Wonder which one will let me down? On the other hand my Jonbon Constitution Hill #Cheltenham double looks more solid than it did a month ago.

Facebook tonight seems to be populated by younger friends and their kids in matching Pyjamas. I’m a stranger in my own land. Age thing obviously but I can’t think I’d ever have agreed to that. Then again I did buy a pair Miami Vice style white trousers. Pleased there are no pictures. #christmas 😳

Good week. Girl I’d suggested for my job has been successful so I’ll have time to show her the ropes before retiring. + confirmed a 10% share in a locally trained filly so some racing trips on the cards next year. Not a bad pre Xmas double. Might have a gin or two tonight 👍

Since Brexit, we effectively swapped hundreds of thousands of EU immigrants for non-EU immigrants. But although all immigrants on average make a positive contribution to government coffers, not all contribute equally. For each EU to non EU immigrant swap, Britain has effectively foregone £50,000.

Took advantage of @racingtv.com offer £12 per month for 12 months. Naively thought I’d sign up,off to Channel 424 and watch away on TV. Nope, mobile ,tablet, PC access ok but some opaque stuff about apps etc to access on TV 😳. 3 from 4 ain’t bad I suppose.

This is what you get when running a tab in the #Balmoral to make sure you don’t do a runner. It opens the box they keep your card in. Not something we’d do regularly but the girlfriend likes it there and she’s more than worth it. TBH the service is excellent. 👍😳💷

Weight loss drug (wegovy) personal experience is: It Works. 15 stone from 17.9 about 8 months ago. I know I should have taken the diet approach but given my bad back I couldn’t exercise to help. ( back and mobility much improved by the way) so overall I’m content with it. 👍

Jeremy Clarkson, James Dyson, the Earl of Derby – they’re up in arms about paying tax on the vast areas of land they own. Small farmers are worried that changes to Agricultural Property Relief (APR) will affect them. But who are the big landowners complaining the loudest? Thread: 1/

This is how the view from my house used to look. The field is now full of houses so no more sheep frolicking or good sunrises. 😳 People need houses I suppose so this scenario is being played out across the country.
