Its the Way It Is

By Jeano

What are the odds?

An old pal of my husband’s likes to bet on horses and he told me he scans the racing pages every morning looking for gee-gees with my name on them. I have told him politely that I would prefer if he didn’t - but he insists it’s a bit of fun.

Ah well! So here are the latest 2 he sent me. It means that I go into the bookies with my dockets not having a clue what I will be collecting.

Bookies shops are like Aladdin’s Cave. Screens all over the place, ticker tape and this feeling of pent up anxiety amongst the punters.

When I go into the bookies, I feel I am doing something borderline criminal. I can’t explain why I feel this way.

I will disclose how much I collected at a later date.

A big thank you to all well wishers on my last blip. I really enjoy blipping and all the nice connections I have made. We are lucky that the volunteers who run it have stepped up to the plate and carry on regardless. Thank you especially to them.

Please watch this to the end. This is on my bucket list to do.

My advice loosely based on Polonius ….”Neither a borrower or a lender or a gambler be”
