Good on you mate, pleased that you had a collect. I watched the race in the bar of a local pub. It was packed and the race was spoilt by a dickhead yelling out at the top of his voice from barrier rise to finish. I have flayed him in my column in next week's paper.
***It amazes me how people go out of their way to take pleasures away from others.
A simple thing like watching the Melbourne Cup at a public venue was ruined by an individual, who for no apparent reason other than trying to draw attention to himself, yelled at the top of his voice from barrier rise to the closing stages spoiling the occasion for eveyone else in the establishment.
My advice is this - if you have no interest in the race dont ruin it for those who do.
It is better to be thought a fool, than removing all doubt by your actions.
Im sure I was not the only one disappointed by the distinct lack of consideration for others.
Funny! Not funny ha ha, but funny peculiar if you ask me.
