" ..and welcome to AINTREE racecourse.
it's a beautiful clear day,
and just going down is JJRaak, in the colours of Sheik KalmD Owwn
an up and coming stable determined to make a mark
Co-Sponsored by LCHF Real Food enterprises
Stable has high hopes JJRaak will stay the distance as he's jumping govt fences for the first time.
Took a nasty fall first time out in the DX hurdle chase, 2018.
a fall at the first really shook his confidence.
But in a brilliant move by the stable, he ditched the Blinkers and ran better from then on,
Has good form from last the time out, in decent company in the T2D LCHF Stayers H'cap 2018
run over 24 months distance.
Good times recorded 40 HBA1c, was a PB
He's a late entry to the Covid H'cap Hurdle , run over 12 months
63K withdrawals to date have whittle the field a little
No R4 applicable...
But i'm told stable are confident JJRaak will finish the race and be in with a shout of being in the frame.
So let us not dally, the starter is waving them to line up..
so lets go join our commentator track side ..."
Bg 6.3
temp 36.6
out yesterday to see our Steph.
two fold up bikes unfolded and we set off to traverse the park.
a short ride & a little while Sat chilling and eating a little picnic..sun out,
glorious day.
Today
a short cycle ride to the chemist for my prescription.
regular so got a cheery hello, plastic screens up at counter for protection as have many stores,
Kettle blew up went last night..
so a new kettle, bought local to support local business,
... and guess whats next to the hardware store...?
...a KEBAB shop.
yep, guilty as sin..i went in got a takeaway donor.
ate the LOT..de-blooming -licious
into supermarket to get milk bread and bits.
all shops practising SD measures, but few in to test if actually used.
a day of seeming normality.
Have a cyclists neck/bandana type thing.
folded inside two sheets of Kitchen roll
as my barrier., stapled in place
masks get washed and tissue gets replaced.. a simple system.
and doesn't look too out of place.
see a few wearing masks but no where near enough to think people are taking others safety as seriously
as they should, mind
I mean IF We lockdown again we all suffer, healthwise & economically.
The Dufuses . that think looking cool N tough is helpful...strewth..
they are the ongoing problem
( apart from Bozo and his atrocious leadership, obv .
)
So two good days
Missus using buses and trains again..
very empty from her pics at the times she travels,
which eased both our minds.
stay safe & well all.
lets do it all again tomorrow.
Ciao
