Yes, never fear, the Gang did not neglect the most important day of the year – we went the mandatory wag and headed for the Kalaru race track.

We kept it pretty low key but can reveal that Megsie picked every winner on the local program! Unbelievable brass arse. We were somewhat less than successful in the main attraction, more’s the pity.

It was a day full of all the usual entertainments, most specifically the Silly Filly Parade…

Soooo much more pleasant than the muntered crush of Cup Day in Canberra. Bummer it’s biannual (Kalaru shares the spoils turn-about with Moruya.)

[PS: Don’t know how we managed to make the grass pink, but what a bonus, eh!  n(Ed)]
