I was working at Sandown Park races on Saturday. While I was there I met a friend of mine who owns a few horses and she had one running that day.
Unfortunately the horse was not placed but still managed to smile for the picture that I took after the race.
I go racing once a year working for the same client and this was my 31st year.
In all that time I have never had a bet (to much of a bad loser) but on Saturday a horse was running called HOH HOH HOH and as it was also my birthday I had a bet on it each way. It came fourth.
I have not had much time recently to get to the plot to do any work,but I do go to the site each day. Yesterday one of my neighbors gave me a corn on the cob and Barbara ate it an hour later. It tasted sublime and I shall definitely be growing them next year.
On my wish list for next year is a Mantis Tiller. A couple of people on our site have one and they are brilliant. So if any of my family are reading this,could you please donate to my Tiller fund at Christmas as I have all the socks and handkerchiefs that I need.

I grew corn on the cob for the first time this year and you're right, it's just amazing. Simply amazing. So different from anything you can buy.
