Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

I am not sure I mentioned it but our new car needed winter tyres 1000€ luckily I spotted them and the garage had to pay,then on our first day out it threw up a waring "go to the dealer" which has meant a new oil pressure solenoid ,it was in this afternoon on handing the keys back he said that now the coolant resevoir cap is stuck and needs replacing and so too does the thermostat housing -two hours and 245€ for the part .The garage will pick up the tab again :D
Makes my 2 new tyres for £250 look cheap.
 


….Ascot, Anj? I’ve been myself and it is stunning. I think Sporting Mike is trained by Ben Pauling who trained 3 nice priced winners and had a 2nd there on Saturday. Sounds like you backed his only loser ;)

Handicap entries out for Cheltenham tomorrow.
Yes it was my other half's birthday present from me last November. And you're right - it was the only one that didn't win for that trainer/jockey combo!

…..I’m getting a Cheltenham handicap ‘tip’ tonight from somebody well connected in the industry. If I think on, I’ll post it on here for you, it’ll be worth a couple of quid each-way for a bit of interest with NRNB now on offer. So hard to win those handicaps but at least I’ll know they like him lots.
 
Good looking car Blue. Hope it's a good one.

@anjelikaferrett have a safe and great trip.

@Terrarian sorry to hear that the headaches aren't getting better . Hope they improve soon.

@Vegas Toffee Girl how is the job going ?
Hi All!

I hope everyone and their families are doing well! I'm good and work is busy! Not as busy as January, so I'm hoping that continues. lol It's been raining quite a bit here, so I have been fixing my horse's stall, carrying heavy bags, which make me even more tired. lol AND it's going to rain again this week, so I have to buy more wood shavings and pellets to prepare. Horse Mom duties. :)

I haven't been watching any matches, but I check to see the scores after. I've kinda been ignoring the EFC drama, adds too much stress at the moment.

@Terrarian I hope your headaches have gotten better! Praying for you!

@anjelikaferrett Hope your trip was awesome!

COYB!!!
 
Hi everybody. I hope you are all having a fun Monday. Sounds like a good night @Ducans elbow. And you seem to be having a most excellent adventure @Barnfred 55! Well done for keeping Rosie and the visitor apart @jazzy. Doees she not like other dogs generally or is it that particular one invading her space that she objects to. Interesting times ahead for our team- hopefully starting with a win tonight. It's just been announced that Roy Hodgson is stepping down due to ill health- I thought that would happen, they wouldn't want to sack him under his current circumstances.
Mr F may have a part time job lined up. He's waiting for a couple of things to be confirmed so fingers crossed.
No doubt catch up later after the match x

…the Goffer @anjelikaferrett i just got 12-1 ago but word is out, it could go off fav.
 
Good morning all on this fine morning here in Finland ,I hope all are well and had a better night than @peteblue ,my thoughts are with you and your lovely wife Pete .
Well what a display again last night this is the worst time in all my 70+ years since I first attended a game .I have been at Goodison with only 7000 odd fans but this side is totally bereft of the joy in playing ,they are being marched out like morons to do his will ,oh to have a player like Arteta who can find a pass.If it isn't from a cross we don't score at the moment .No one can tell me this points deduction hasn't had a detrimental affect on the players ,even if we got the points back what about that and the poor displays because of it .I would love to have a word in Moshiri's ear .COYB

You've hit the nail on the head blue.

There is no joy in watching Everton. The football is turgid beyond belief.

Honestly it's like pulling teeth.

My heart goes out to really loyal fans like @Val P .

All my Everton supporting mates have given up going to the match .

There’s little joy about the club at the moment. Involved in a turgid relegation battle, waiting on appeal of one points deduction while expecting another, 777 hardly give us cause for much hope even if approved, our current board members are almost non-existent, u18 &u21 teams are the worst for years …… There is of course our new Stadium to offer some hope, and as one of our greatest once said ..” Once Everton has touched you …” so on we go , once a blue ..etc 🙂
