Morning Old Socs.
I'm only lurking because we had a power cut at 7pm last night just as we were cooking dinner ...... didn't come back on till 12:45am and it woke me up with a start because I'd left my bedside light on by mistake. Wanted to check that my Cable position was still intact.

Jeff,
A friend's little girl has that (I think). Gluten free diet?? She carries homemade bread around with her wherever she goes.

Well they do say don't believe everything you read but you can't be too carefull. As a principle you should never open any un-solicited files. Here is some information re. Budweiser:

Since I know nothing about nags I'll take a guess. Ithnk there is one called Bold Bishop, is that OK? 100 EW (whatever that means).

That's great jeffmack, if you can do that and record everyone's bet like you did then i can just pick the winners out at the race result.
The Results.....
1st 24 Scorned (GER) 14-1
2nd 4 Bold Bishop (IRE) 8-1
Socks wins e/w bet on Bold Bishop winning 550.00
I will then put up a leaderboard of players funds. Game starts next Friday.

Unfortunately it was just a test and socks actually wins zero beano. :-)
jeff, If you post the list of horses and the links like you did and then all the punters bets then that will be brill. If you are not here to record the bets before your deadline then the race will have to be void incase players re-edit their posts to cheat! I leave the Game in your hands.
