Yeah well pretty much a standard spring saturday so...

• net session with the lad in the morning
• home for a coffee and finish off the days form before loading a handful of long winded multi bets
• arvo at home pretending to do odd jobs around the house, lawns etc while really knocking back beers and punting on anything with 4 legs and a long nose running around caulfield or randwick and if I'm struggling that morphetville or eagle farm might get some attention too.
• 530/6pm usually end with a couple of boys from next door turning up to get their kids home for dinner but end up having a beer or three while I spout about the sport of kings and how good spring racing is. Make them stay for the last leg of a multi.
• potentially angry bbq around 630pm following my lack of belief of a redzel three-peat
• settle in to a bit of england vs aus between blowing the last of my cash on the wizard of the west at ascot
• AB's game - probably on the couch with me and my nerves being comforted by abusive texts from aus mates and/or UK family (depending on outcome of previous game)

Yeah same old saturday really

Wife has confirmed she's actually out all day saturday and not in until late that evening so no longer any need to do aforementioned odd jobs around home etc. There is a need though for another box of beers

I've over stocked. Running out would be a disaster

Really want Aussie to get up for this one Perth-style, think England will be a tough SF opponent (if we beat Ire) if they're high on confidence from winning well.

I just want all our Southern neighbors to beat the UK teams. And of course I think we have a better chance against Aus than England. I'd love to see them pull out a Perth game.

What about Ireland? You didn't mention them.....just the UK teams....

Because everyone just thinks you're British

I wish I knew who those comments and the ensuing articles were aimed at

Anyone who knows anything about rugby knows every team has a strategy to disrupt the ruck.

So who exactly are these blokes chirping at?

I got on Mer de Glace early for the Caulfield Cup. But now I've seen it drew gate 21!

But the teams will be named at some point, so there will be a bit of bickering about that

I think we need another story thread...

In Mexico City for this one... Gonna have the Mrs ring around all the Irish bars in town to find one that’s showing it.

Reading a bunch of trip adviser reviews I reckon this one sounds like a good option.

“It was a good bar until I went to the bathroom and was offered cocaine. Management didn’t seem too concerned about it”

we have a winner

sack up @dogmeat this bloke is on the marching powder for the cause.

@Tim said in Plans for Saturday:

I'll probably go to a pub and drink Czech or German pilsner, and US or Danish IPAs. I will smell the beer and I will announce that I am smelling the beer.

will this include also watching the rugby ironically?

Do me a favour and help a brother out and flick me a few tips come Saturday as I won't have any time for form

We've got a caulfield cup to fit in there too!

I won't see much racing I doubt.

The heart bleeds for you Hooroo, poor wee thing out there playing golf on your boys trip!!!

he's got it tough aye. The races is his missus' thing, so he is forced to go just to spend time with her. Then it's boys weekends playing golf, when he needs time out from supporting her

Dunno how he copes.
