The adventures of Almigo

Sigh, after last weeks rubbish round it seems my fondness for picking strong horse names isn't translating into much needed points. Who could have predicted that? So this time around I'm working my way down the list of winning nags and grabbing what I can in my slightly reduced budget...

Look if you're searching for songs for basic moods (love, tiredness, boredom, hunger etc) then sorry, this isn't the list for you. There are literally millions of options out there covering the basics - have at thee Youtube. No what we're looking at today are songs for oddly specific moods. Those 'Gosh, I thought I was the only one who ever felt like this!' moods and scenarios aching for the perfect soundtrack. I may have found some but as always with this place, results may vary..

So I'm selling my car at the moment and it's been a long process of strange questions, low ball offers and people who just can't read ads to save themselves. And while it's up on Facebook, I've been loathe to put it on Gumtree for the sake of scammers and shitkickers. However today I finally did put up an ad for it there... ...only to have an idiot scammer immediately contact me, literally seconds after it appeared. So while I wait for genuine offers, I figured I'd mess with this moron in the meantime..

Oh goodie! As we creep towards another big weekend of horse racing action, only one of my horses in my current field are actually going to be involved. Worse, it's one that mysteriously disappeared that round so my hopes of it doing anything good this time are slim. Still, I have 1.8 million dollars in the kitty to play with again so what could possibly go wrong here?

Over the weekend my cousin and his finance had a beautiful wedding beach side in beautiful Noosa, Queensland. She looked stunning in her dress, he looked stoked to be there, I watched on with Mr Bean bumbling around in the background and my own father in law giggling like a loon at his antics... Yeah, kind of like this..

Well the good news is some of my horses are racing again this weekend! The bad news is, I still have to find 6 replacements for those who aren't.. Sigh, never a quiet day for a lunatic horse owner is there? 

In this weeks update: We're still waiting for a race, any race really. One horsie has increased in value and it's probably a good time to introduce the other players of this challenge who have as much nag knowledge as I do..

What do I know of Horse Racing? About as much as I know of Japanese Tax reform. But even with that supreme lack of knowledge and form, I can still pick some horsies and a random jockey and play my part in the latest work crew Supercoach challenge* *Like my AFL coaching antics of earlier this year it may not be a good part really but I'm ready and willing none the less.
