I took the weekend off. Not deliberately. Managed to oversleep on Saturday morning, dashed through the shower, gulped down some Cheerios (other breakfast cereals are available), and just about got to u9 cricket training in time. Then straight off to the Wirral, which is bloomin’ miles away, to play. Got home late (100 mile round journey!), grabbed fish and chips on the way, dumped the car, walked to the Club, drank too much beer, dragged myself home and slumped into bed. Woke up Sunday morning – late – and thought, you know what, I’m taking some time to breathe. There are times when you just need to pause and chill a wee bit. Ended up having lunch out with the missus…realised I should have kept it to normal! (I joke).
Anyway, who knows how the tipsters did? I don’t. I was happy with their relative performances at Royal Ascot through the week, where some decent profits were had by Bet Alchemist and Northern Monkey. It wasn’t quite Cheltenham level of profiteering, but every little helps, does it not? All told then, we’ve reached a new year to date high for Northern Monkey, and likewise with the Racing portfolio as a whole.
If that’s not a good time to unwind a touch, then I don’t know what is.
