I was thinking about you earlier this week Warmy. The racing is crap at the moment, but I found one decent bet at Kempton on Tuesday, a Roger Varian trained 3yo maiden called Razzam. It hadn't run for 7 months, but Varian can get then ready at home as well as any trainer, so no worries there, and it was drawn 11/12, not good over 6f at Kempton, it's going to be on the outside round the bend into the straight, but it looked to have enough to overcome that in a fairly average looking field, and I was expecting it to come late and win going away.

And so it proved, almost, wide into the straight it flew past them all except for one 33/1 outsider, it was still a neck down on that bloody nag as they crossed the line. And the name of that bloody nag that stuffed me............Warminster.

Sorry to hear that sinkov : - )

Bollox, you don't give a FF do you.

Nope Anyway, who names something after the town of Warminster. Ridiculous!

I always thought they named the town after a racehorse.

I've only ever been to Warminster once, you'd like it sinkov it's a lot like Clitheroe.

We had a lovely lunch there on our way to Southampton.

When we lived in France an English couple from Warminster had a holiday home near us, a lovely couple, Mike once made a paella using his barbecue in their garden, best paella I've had in my life, and I've had a few, paellas that is, not lives. It wasn't Warmy, they weren't Burnley fans.

Me and wife number 4 used to visit Nerja twice a year and on the promenade was a sort of an old small fishing boat. The local restaurant used to start a charcoal fire inside it and make a daily lunchtime paella. A couple of bottles of dry white wine and a couple of plates of that extraordinarily good lunchtime paella and even me and the ex-missus stopped warring.

There really isn't much that can beat a good paella is there mon ami, the bugger is finding one, there's an awful lot of mediocre ones on offer.

Me and the wife (this one's a 100% keeper! ) are off to Nerja and Granada soon. I'll report back if the boat is still operating.
