DJP Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 That's a shambolic pay cut....feel for ya fella. Anyone been watchin the racing from Meydan? Lot of good horses....hard to pick winners You're telling me. My work got bought over. Was a choice of being made redundant or taking a pay cut, so now on less then when I was 21, so the money even now was hardly that great. So kept job on shit pay over being out of work, but obviously applying for almost everything, as most of you know, not much out there. At 30 years old it is a real kick in the teeth. Good to see this thread picking up again. I am still sure I have over 50% of posts in this thread alone 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will have a look at it more often now. Never forget the day Kayster nearly tipped a fourfold at Carlisle(i think)?? and the final horse was second and the poor guy didn't get the bet on and he took it on the chin with a c'est la vie attitude.All credit to him DJP 2535 stevenston saint 767 Cabbage 639 doulikefish 602 DarkBlue62 534 cityfan 522 Haitch 319 Kayster 303 Shame about the job mate but its tough out there,our workforce has been slashed and all i seem to be doing is extra work that everyone else did for nothing extra. Haven't had pay cut which i am grateful for but haven't had increase for about 10 years now and used to get nice christmas bonus,that's gone so i suppose i am getting less Just have to try and get through it!

Find that odd myself although he did used to have about 500 posts a day so it's not surprising-bloody students. 90% 100% of his posts were losers as well I mentioned this a few pages ago but..... Does anyone think 10/1 for Kauto Star in the Gold Cup too big? Iv lumped £20 on it Don't fancy it one bit mate so just watch it romp in. 10/1 is big though so good luck with that! It's Imperial Commander for me! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently EVENS and don't expect much better I would like to join the horsey gang as well please. Came on to post £15 on Peace Corps @ Evens. Not a great deal challenging, should have enough for the win.

It's Imperial Commander for me! This for me also. DJP, you seem to be a bit like myself in that you like to keep faith with horses you've backed in the past? A couple I'll keep an eye out for are King Fontaine and John Potts, both rarely let me down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJP was always betting on a horse called Bond St and a few on here followed it a few times then stopped,well I for one stopped as was fed up it performing poorly.Big price too if I remember. Doubt if it covered his past stakes on it though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
