Hawick

come over to the traders room and you'll find a horse racing thread

likewise long fokine - oh so close!!!

Cracking thread at share-crazy too! ;) tipped up haafhd at 33/1 for guineas as long ago as October and gave a 40/1 golf winner recently!! Also on oaks day a fabulous treble.
Thank heavens in these dozy markets for sport!!

Evening.

All packed for Houston so taxi at 4:30am. Do I not like that?

Remain Long JKX, MRS, short WHT. Lobbed PLR in the auction for +0.5. Bought the dinner anyway. Open positions doing very nicely.

Very happy to have had 8 blue trading days on the trot, so chugging along well. Mind you, the last time I said that I got bolloxed so keeping a bit quiet. However, learnt the previous lesson so no chance of taking that mutha again.

Have a good time and best of luck to all. Should be away max 2 weeks, hopefully sooner, and should have log-on capabilities so I'll be watching!!

PS - Special thanks to he of Oxon for keeping the best thread on the web going. His mate would be chuffed to bits. To everyone else, keep helping and posting. If not the legacy disappears.

Cheers Al have a good trip
