16th December 2013

A routine Monday for the horses.

The entries at Chaddesley Corbett are incredible well over 200, The Drinkymeister will be aimed at one of the maidens.

Sam's younger brother Joe rode his first winner on Sunday at Wadebridge. Sam trained him and his mum and dad owned him. Congratulations to all the Drinkwaters, a real family affair.

Charlie popped in tonight and has named a couple of the fillies, Rebekah Rabbit and Susie Sheep! He is obviously a massive Peppa Pig fan or Scarlet his daughter must be. My kids want to know which horse will be named Pedro Pony. Although Peppa Pig is often on in this house I failed to know any of the names. After supper tonight I now know most! in fact it completely wrecked the viewing of a rugby international earlier in the year when it overrode my recording.

Andy Murray was in my mind the correct winner of Sports Personality Of The Year, Tony McCoy certainly deserved the recognition he got. The only thing that dragged the program down was the fuss that was made over Manchester United.
