A day at the races

Best day out from Perth was a day at Pinjarra races. Pinjarra is a country town about 80 K from Perth. Drive out got me to see the countryside - miles and miles of it - ditto suburbs all one storey cos there's just so much land. Pinjarra has country races so these beautiful horses are not up to the standard of the big national race tracks. But they seemed pretty damned fast to me. So...a day at the races involved finding a table in the shade - temperature now in the mid-30s and rising,,,,putting a bottle of white wine on ice and learning how to do the tote. Begiiners luck rules - I bet $10 in $2 bets on 5 races and won $13, Could be habit - forming.
