Thanks for yet another friendly welcome in the paddock - the home-made Victoria sponge was the highlight of the afternoon
Here is a link to some of the photos from the paddock and the race: http://chrisdickenphotos.weebly.com/msc ... -2016.html

Nice pictures, as always from young Chris, however, I notice that they were all taken during the sunny period, nothing from the bleaker part of the day. The more clean living types were up early.

I concur with regard to the sponge, very tasty, Richard surely is a pretty good cook, and Peter Rafter is a dab hand at 'waiting-on'.

On another matter, I know that many have been puzzled by Compo's stately progress at the back of the field during recent events, I can now reveal the reason for the lack of speed.
It transpires that the poor chap is suffering from some weird ailment that requires him to be constantly. "Scratching an itch."
I did not care to enquire which, particular part of his anatomy is causing this irritation, however, it is clearly at some awkward spot, judging by his distinctly gentle progression around the circuits.

In his position I think I would be seeking medical advice.

clue
Compo did not disclose this "itch" in his annual MSA medical.
thats rich

Great race report Bob

Andy Green was there – supervising us all from his tower as Clerk of the Course. Numerous TV screens watching our every move on track – but no screen showing the Morgan paddock

Glad you liked the calves

Leigh
In the Elizabethan era a well defined calve was a high compliment. Twas naught as base as the size of the codpiece.
toodle pip

a well defined calve

One does not like to be pedantic but I think the singular of calves is calf....

Blessed pedant
Tis the elizabethan spelling (or not)

Gadzooks and ye oddbodkins. prithee thee fayre Mary, thou doest know thy words full well.

Bob, your pics missed Kathy Sherrys Sandy Shaw impression!!!

Sorry Peter, I thought it was Sandy Shaw doing her Kathy Sherry impression, so ignored it.
