Default Horse racing day at Doomben in BRISBANE

There's a few of us going Horse racing at DOOMBEN IN BRISBANE on OCTOBER 24TH if anyone is interested in a day out . (probably followed by drinks in the city afterward if i know this lot !!) It gives people a great chance to meet others at an informal function where the onus is for everyone to strip the bookie of his cash Please feel free to put your names down people or just pm me and i'll give you my number to contact at the racecourse .No need to buy tickets as it's a pay on the day event if you're interested and we'll just meet up there .Also it does give all you lurvely ladies a chance to get out the party hats and dust down the posh frocks for the day

Happy racing folks

Sorry, won't be able to make it as it clashes with another high octane racing event which involve several thousand horses(power that is).

Quite like the sound of that but its my birthday on that day so I'm sure my lovely hubby (hint,hint ) will have made other plans...if not (as may well be the case )though we'd love to come....are you counting the numbers coming or is it just a case of turning up?

My SIL is here for a few weeks

more than my life is worth to not behave for a while.

I would have loved to have gone for the day.

Had a particularly good day at Doomben yesterday

Any time you are free....give me the nod
