ASLAN -- THIS IS ...

These are the hands of a tired man,
This is the old man's shroud,
These are the eyes of the blood crazed tiger...
Staring at the maddening crowd,
This is the face of a teenage mother,
This is the child she bears,
This is the soul of her broken lover,
Searching for the smiles she shared,
These are the feet of the punished pilgrim
And in his book of punished love,
Tou see his eyes,
You see no surprise...
Waiting for a lie that's true.


Everybody hits you with this feeling
Nobody seems to understand
You stop, you look...
You're searching for the meaning
Wasting your life away


These are the dreams of a sleeping father
And in his long lost days,
He sees a child...
He sees his eyes...
Waiting for the price he's paid
These are the tears of a fallen idol,
And in his smile of shattered love,
You see his eyes...
You see no surprise...
You just see lights then realise


Here with you
No one here but you
No one moves but you
Nobody touches like you
You...
Nobody moves like you
But everybody hits you
Everybody knocks you down


These are the feet of a punished pilgrim
And to the book he prays
You see his eyes
You see no surprise
You just see lights then you realise

Bank Holiday Weekend ...

APPARENTLY NEXT MONDAY IS A BANK HOLIDAY, GIVEN THAT I'M STILL OUT OF WORK I FEEL LIKE I'M MISSING OUT ON A DAY OFF AND BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE CARRIED OVER TO WHEN I AM BACK IN WORK. :O))

WOULD GIVE ANYTHING TO HAVE A JOB AT THE MOMENT, IT'S BECOMING VERY DISHEARTENING TO NOT HEAR ANYTHING EACH DAY AND GET SENT EMAILS FROM AGENCIES ABOUT JOBS THAT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH MY SKILL SETS.

SO ONWARDS AND UPWARDS, ALL BEING WELL SHALL GET AWAY FOR A DAY OR TWO IF I CAN AFFORD TO, CAR RUNNING OK NOW AFTER SOME MAJOR SURGERY AND WILL HAVE TO KEEP THAT ON THE ROAD FOR ANOTHER YEAR ALL BEING WELL.

SO THE WEEK AHEAD LOOKS LIKE THIS

MON - WET
TUES - WET
WED - BRIGHTON
THURS - WET
FRI - WET

WEEKEND - DRUNK

HAVE A GREAT WEEK EVERYONE

SHERGAR CUP DAY SATURDAY

Not everyone's cup of tea but it'll be a packed crowd again at Ascot with lots of entertainment and music after racing so you shouldn't blame the powers that be for continuing with this as a means to promote racing as an entertainment experience.

I will in attendance as a guest of Betfair and good luck to all taking part.

We start the meeting with a 5f event, the sprint king himself Dandy Nicholls saddles FOL HOLLOW for the UK team, his other horse Buachaill Dona appears to be a non runner allowing the reserve to try his luck.

The 2.45 contest has our NAP selection  YASHRID is a Course and Distance winner here and seeking a hat-trick of wins over 1m 4f, doesn't seem to have finished yet and should be right there under Hayley in this contest all things considered. If 4/1 is available it will be a massive win/place selection for me and is either the making of the day or will see me coming home early (perhaps).


You can see how the rest of the card looks via my main racing pages DAISY RACING.

AUGUST ALREADY ...

Hello
Hope you all enjoying your summer, it's August and that can mean only one thing, the school holidays and everywhere is full of screaming brats.


Had an excellent week at Goodwood and learnt a few things from people there, next year hope to go to GALWAY which is on at the same time all week. Be sure to follow Dermot Weld at that meeting regularly has winners and level stakes profit for the week. 


Wednesday see's us visit Brighton for the first day of their three day festival, so we'll pray for the weather and have a fun day. Then I can plan the first of my ASCOT trips, having been awarded Ascot VIP Badges from BETFAIR that cover the 10 fixtures for the rest of 2010. I have a pair of PREMIER admission badges, plus Champagne vouchers which would be a shame to go to waste. 


This Saturday marks the first of these dates, and it's the SHERGAR CUP meeting along with an 80's revival concert afterwards which is right up my street. So we'll put up some selections for the weekend after we come back from Brighton. 


Have a great week everyone
DAISY
