Out for my evening constitutional, I dropped by the Southern100 paddock and was horrified to see a caravan with VICTOR GILMORE RACING on the end of it... a full 2 and a half days before he needs to be here!

But... ah... panic over... Victor's not there, just the caravan and some other people...whew...



Let's face it... the Dodo is just a bit scarce compared to Victor turning up on time!!

Now... who will be the first racing paddock resident this time around.?....

Not me - not coming!!!

There's still time to change your mind... I can go and mark out your space.................

Lead us not into temptation . . . . . . . .

Give John and Meryl - and the rest!! - our very best.

You can't mark Larry's space out, it is on the racing line!

Don't be silly Fitz - it's up the bloody slip road!!

Good grief, the boy's a marshal at Castletown Corner, too!

Oo is ??

Hi Larry
hope you and jane and puppydog all well
see you next year
ali xx

Young Fitz is.

Not been called young for a while. That Choc Eclair did the trick huh?

All this banter is making me wish I
was coming
Either that or
Manx!

Bring chocolate eclairs!!

to watch for Victor arriving....

Don't have to be a Manxie, Mike - half of us on this one are, half aren't!!

Don't forget the young fella stuck in the paddock doing transponder checks all day... not seeing one little bit of racing but having to watch the machines go past on their way to the holding area ..... I could cry .... but am to big for that .......... but then again .... so just stop by and say hi, if you want anyway ....

he will be OK, don't he normally have a Mucky Mag to keep him amused

Young fella??????????????



Seriously, I thought you were off that duty, and up in the greenhouse with Brookie?

Or was once enough and he fired you?

Larry .. they were going to ask you to do the timing in the box but you couldn't get up the stairs ... no stanna fitted yet

How's your ar*e after Castletown Corner by the way?
