First Monday looking for new job. But it's Royal Ascot week....

Hello


Ok so was made redundant last week finding out the news on Thursday and spent Friday letting it sink in while watching the start of the world cup at my folks.


Now it's Monday and the search is on, but need to be back for the Holland game at lunchtime eh. Plus of course it's Royal Ascot week so lets get that updated on my other sites and enjoy the peace and sunshine for a few days  at least.


Update with the racing news later.


DAY 1 Royal Ascot can be found here ... http://www.daisyracing.co.uk/racinghome.htm


Cheers DAISY

Weekend update completed, England vs USA later of course...



Updated the racing pages for YORK (SAT) and working on the Sunday meeting from SALISBURY. 


These can be found via www.bigtedonline/racing.htm


Working at home now having been made redundant on Friday but will have to focus on job hunting, however should have time at home to ensure that updates continue in a timely fashion.


ENGLAND have their first World Cup game of the 2010 campaign and USA will probably make things tough but expect the class to show in the end. A scrappy 1-0 win for the English is the prediction. (which would have happened if it wasn't for a bloody useless West 'aaaaam Goolkeeper twat.)

WORLD CUP FEVER & NOW PLENTY OF TIME TO WATCH IT...



Today has been coming to be fair, was not much of a surprise to be brought down to the company boardroom and be told that we were being sacrificed made redundant.


It hasn't sunk in that after 10 years I am having to go through it all again, CV/s, Agencies and Interviews. Not sure where to start to be honest and might have to take a day or two to let it sink in properly as I have a lot to sort out -- it took us all day to clear out my desk as well as sorting out copying my mails and files back to disc. At least this was much better than leaving CGI, where we were escorted off the premises a few mins after getting the letter and all left a stunned outside before going to the pub waiting for them to open up.


Thanks to all that made it fun for the past 10 years, who knows where we might end up next but lets hope it's soon. 


Oh and there's a small football tournament called THE WORLD CUP starting Friday I suppose I've nothing else to do but watch it and have a beer or two.


Have a good weekend everyone.

IT'S DERBY DAY, RIO INJURED AND THE GOLF CLUBS GET AN AIRING



Jan Vermeer is drifting a bit now for the Derby but that's to be expected it got far too short at 7/4, and money always going to come for Frankie and Kieren as well on the day. I really hope that Henry Cecil can have a good day and get that 25th Classic that he was denied in the 1000 Guineas early in the year. 

In the opener I do fancy the Queens horse QUICK REACTION but more about that one and the rest of the Epsom card can be found on our racing pages. 



www.bigtedonline.com/Weekend1.htm


Of course the big World Cup news is that Rio Ferdinand is out of the England squad and the captaincy is now in the hands of Steve Gerrard. The thing is this might not be such a bad thing in the end, I mean yeah it's terrible for Rio personally but he's not had the best of seasons and was probably carrying a bit of an injury anyway. Rather we play 100% fit players at all times than play them just because he's "Rio", same goes for the rest of the team. If Rooney isn't fit then we better play Crouch and Defoe as a pair as they clearly click together and we'll have more success with that than a half fit Rooney on his own. 


Looking forward to next weekend, don't underestimate the USA either, the opening game could be a draw and a decent result for both sides. 


More on the world cup games later next week. 


Golf -- went out and shock some cobwebs off the golf clubs earlier, only smack 60 balls on the driving range but good to get a bit of a swing on before lunch and the racing. Must get myself around a course soon ...

EPSOM DERBY FEVER

So now with this years Epsom Derby just 3 days away the news of the injury to St Nicholas Abbey means that our new market leader is JAN VERMEER at 2/1. 


As anticipated by us earlier last month he'll be ridden by Johnny Murtagh and the 20/1 ante post bet we have keeps getting better. However not one to be too greedy have laid off a bit of that today ensuring a profit win/lose. Looking through the field though can't say I'm that taken by anything in particular so I doubt I'll have any other bet and just stick with what we have. 


Am more interested in the Royal Ascot meeting which is now less than two weeks away...but more on that will follow over the weekend. 


--------------------------------------------------------
Kempton Wed evening was fairly successful, Daisy seeing her NAP win at 2/1 and the LAY got beaten into 3rd at 9/4F. It was just a shame the longshot couldn't perform and tailed off a poor 12th at 16/1 but you can't have them all.
