    People are starting to wonder where Ron has got to.
    This has to be an opportunity to create a book!
    Place your bets...

    2/1 Still on holiday
    7/2 Contracted Alzheimers and can't find his way home.
    5/1 Contracted something else- and his wife won't let him home.
    8/1 Joined the French Foreign Legion.
    10/1 Tipped a winner and is still celebrating.
    12/1 Gone to stud.
    14/1 Got a lottery grant to set up Not 606- and has scarpered with the money.
    16/1 Seen in a bar in Botswana three days ago- is he really Lord Lucan?
    18/1 Back tomorrow.
    20/1 Never went on holiday- hiding from the gendarmes for tipping losers at his local cop shop.
    25/1 Make your own suggestion.

    Place your bets. The result will be announced later today.

    To be honest Tam, I'm fearing it may be something more serious.

    He is such a regular visitor, that I'm sure he would have at least have posted a note of apology for his absence, had he been able to.

    Although by nature I'm a pessimistic barsteward at the best of times. :emoticon-0107-sweat

    I remember he posted that he would be away indefinately. Here's hoping he's in good health.

    Nah, he's OK, everyone- take it from me!
    He 's been seen in London- getting his banker's bonus! I'm on my way to see him- to persuade him to put it on Hurricane Fly at 4/6 NRNB.

    No, I don't fancy that bet , Grizzly! With Ron's even temperament, he was probably gelded before the French would let him in!:cheesy:

    18/1 shot bolts in! Ron's back- I can feel it in my water!
    Looks like a clear book with no profits- no bets either!

    I'll take the 25/1 back on 3rd March. Just made it (back at 23.00). When I'm paid out I can actually have a holiday.

    Hope you have been having fun. Let me know of anything needs attending to. Eg who has been posting distasteful stuff and is it still visible?

    Don't bother about that silly comp, Ron. Now you've done the business (and got your banker's bonus), go and have a nice holiday(before or after Cheltenham).

    welcome back ron. i remember you posted something that made me think of the pole explorer and a tent but i didn't like to say that until you were back. [embarrassed at the thought smiley]

    do you get to see any racing while you're away?
