GREAT, NOT FOR THE FIRST TIME THIS YEAR I HAVE A DAY OFF COMPLETELY RUINED BY THE WEATHER. LOOKED OK THIS MORNING AND HEADED OUT FOR AN EARLY START, ARRIVING AT ASCOT FOR 11AM THE FIRST RACE KICKING OFF AT 11.50.
WITHIN A SHORT WHILE I AM HEARING THAT THEY HAD ONLY JUST BEEN INSPECTING THE COURSE AND IT WAS OFF. PROMPTING AN EARLY CLOSURE OF THE BARS SO I COULDN'T EVEN GET A DRINK IN BEFORE GOING BACK TO THE STATION.
APPRECIATE IT WASN'T WARM BUT FANCY LEAVING IT SO LATE, IF YOU ARE UNLIKELY TO RACE CALL IT OFF BY 9AM AND HAVE DONE WITH IT, AT LEAST WE WILL HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DO SOMETHING ELSE WITH OUR DAY.
HEADED HOME BY MIDDAY ONLY TO GET CAUGHT UP IN A MINI BLIZZARD SO REST OF THE DAY CHILLED OUT LITERALLY AT HOME.
CANNOT SEE ASCOT GOING AHEAD TOMORROW WITH THE TEMPS NOT GETTING ABOVE FREEZING FOR A WHILE. [INDEED AS I WRITE THIS IT HAS BEEN CALLED OFF]
HOPE YOU ALL KEEP WARM AND FIND SOMETHING TO DO WITH YOUR FINAL WEEK BEFORE XMAS. DAISY
