Than sitting in my favorite chair drinking hot coffee on a cool wet morning while watching the royal Ascot horse racing on the tv!!! Just saying!

 :headscratch:

even better is somehow dad can pick out a 25/1 winner in the 5.00 race and stick a fiver on it from a field of 30 odd horses.   :uhoh

his reasoning being it was an unknown Irish trainer and his name sounded funny.

I was picking Bruv ahead by a length, but Bgoldy, BFOOT1, and AkWarHwk came charging up from behind in the stretch.  Bgoldy and BFOOT1 edged out by a nose and tied for the win, with Bruv and AkWarHwk tying for 2nd in a photo finish.

It was amazing and thrilling!

I turned to Zack and said, "Ye gods!  What a race!"

He looked up from his meat pie and said, "What?  What'd I miss?"
