Will be flying out tonight for a few days in Ireland, so picture updates early next week. That's assuming I'm still able to walk as I'm off to Punchestown races tomorrow with the Duke and Mr and Mrs Laxie.  |

So we arrive in Dublin a few hours after Ger and Glenn on the Thursday night. Don't ever give Ger a 3 hour head start in a drinking session...he won't last the pace. | Click to see full-size image. |
 Luckily Glenn was still able for a laugh. That's Mr. Laxie with him. I'm behind the camera. | Click to see full-size image. |

 All in all a great day and we can't thank Glenn enough!!! |

Lol at the photos - I dont remember being on the Vodka RedBulls that night but the evidence is there! Great day at the races, I bagged a 14/1 winner near the end and still came out losing!
With a sore head I set off for Tipperary on the Saturday morning and spent a couple of days with the dogs. Blondepokerdotcom is doing well and looks an absolute picture. We took him and his sister off to the schooling track on Sunday. Always a big day after months of waiting but they both went round without hesitation so thats a good start. He's only 12 months old and quite big, so he wont see a track again for at least 2 months, although his sister will be worked a bit sooner as shes smaller and wont need as long.
Blondepokerdotcom is the black dog his sister is the fawn.

Actually, I was quite surprised when we went to fix up the tab for nearly 6 hours of drinking. Wasn't near what I thought it would be! We're getting old and slow.

Latest update...
Last week was the time to get the dog officially named. Unfortunately we couldnet get Blondepokerdtcom or anything that had Blonde as the first word so I expect that the bloke who owns Blonde Dino and all the other Blonde dogs has that prefix registered to himself. So when ready he will race under the name of ..... GO BLONDE POKER
I'm heading out to see him again in a couple of weeks and we'll be off to the schooling track with him again. He's definitely keen enough so we just need to wait to see if he's fast enough! Hopefully we'll have a bit of fun with him in a few months time.

Let us know his schedule - I am sure we could pop along and rail him at the track - wherever it is.......
