Blimey ... So I was the only victor yesterday ?

I celebrated with a first pint since my OP. A lovely Barnsley at Little Plough. Just the one but I deserved it and must have had subliminal message to "go for it"

Good news on the pint front Wolfie!

Very pleased to get today's puzzle with only 1 life lost.

As you were. I looked and found 3 possible connections. With 4 lives to go I could only see 2 of the 6 that might go. I picked the most likely and boom .... First shot

B
P

P Kicking myself for not thinking of 2 of them as exactly what they were ! centrefold great song and adracadabra. Why did I not think of them that way ?

A streak of 10 shot down in flames, despite knowing 3 of the groups.
Lost a 1a life going for G
Y
2 x1a lives going for g
Fail going for P.
At least I had a good day at Cheltenham yesterday. 6 selections. First 5 all finished unplaced, but I didn't have a bet. Last one I thought 'Sod it' and had £2 on at 9.5/1. Won by 6 lengths but I did cash out at the final fence, as there looked to be 6 horses coming to challenge.
But still a profitable day.

tommy toes · « **Reply #1829 on** March 12, 2025, 08:54:37 am by tommy toes »

I had an E/W yankee. None of them placed.
Backed 3 horses in the 24 runner chase. One fell the other two pulled up.
