tonyh29 Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 That's 4 double baggers. Actually maybe #1 is alright. She's like a Tesco-brand Brooke Shields. But harsh on number 3 , single bagger surely ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted March 14, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted March 14, 2013 Those ladies were on a Sky Sports News report. I stand by what I said, NUmber 2 would be my favourite, despite the face, purely for what she's rocking under the dress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted March 14, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted March 14, 2013 You went? Yeah, company client hospitality day out. I spent the entire day on the guinness and doing terribly on the horses. Thankfully my bliss said i was alright to come in late today, because i feel shite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 That's 4 double baggers. Actually maybe #1 is alright. She's like a Tesco-brand Brooke Shields. But harsh on number 3 , single bagger surely ? Bit late to this, but No.3 is the only one that would get a rise from me. But they essentially look like 4 chavs going to the races. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

islingtonclaret Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 200 quid up on the racing ....I shall retire from gambling now I worked my days on a Galway FarmIn the sun and rain and wind and stormBut once a year I'll chance my armAnd cross the sea to EnglandI'll scrimp and save 2000 poundsSpend the week in Cheltenham townBut the racing over always downI come back poor from EnglandI dreamed one night before I leftA coal black mare with a white star chestCrossed the line and beat the restI came back rich to GalwayI rose at dawn and drove all dayThinking, wondering all the wayLady luck have you come to stayOr steal away in the morningWhen I got to Cheltenham townIrish faces all around No bed or mattress to be foundI slept out on the hillsideI spent three days at the viewing ringSaw the horses they led inAnd just as I was giving inI stood and stared in wonderWith stamping hooves and steaming breathA coal black mare with a white star chestI ran my finger down the listI matched the name and numberWell Lady Luck had come half wayThe horses name was Galway Bay20-1 were the odds that dayI went to make my wagerI counted out 2000 poundsHeld it high, slapped it downThe bookie smiled but made no soundI knew what he was thinkingThe biggest loser in all the landWith pounding heart and shaking handsI made my way up to the standThe horses came to orderBut at the first she nearly fellI cursed my farmers luck to hellThe second and third she took quite wellWay behind the leadersThen moving swiftly from the backFound the rails and caught the packTen to go and from the backHer hooves were drumming thunderShe’s catching horses one by oneBridle flashing in the sunEight to go and a mile to runTwo are left before herDown the straight and on they spedLeft one at the last for deadCaught the next and by a headShe came home a winnerSo I came back to my Galway farmA wiser and a richer manBut never again I'll chance my armOr cross the sea to England'Cos Lady Luck was mine that dayI held her close and she went my wayI raised a glass to the Galway BayAnd the dream of the Galway farmer Very good.

Shillzz Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 (edited) Happy Birthday Tegis, but sadly I can't use that as justification for my demands to the missus.Edit: Demands?
