I love sport and I have a bald head.

@itvracing#openingshow In the early days of the Weekender, there were three columnists. Alastair was the only one who didn't have his mugshot photo heading his column so for years I had no idea what he looked like! On TV I liked when he hosted the C4 Festival evening highlights.

@itvracing#openingshow Has the Breeders Cup Classic really been moved back so more Brits can watch City of Troy win?

@ITV#thechase Rebecca is one of those rare breeds who has no idea how pretty she is. She is also very clever. And she dresses nicely. What's not to like?

[David Patrick Moore @DavidPatrickMo2]

@ITV#thechase What a lovely lady Helen is. Brad isn't always shy to ask contestants about their health conditions and it would have been nice had Brad asked about her sight issues as she had a chemistry degree and was something of a rock chick.

@itvracing Again, look at todays Wetherby card. The first listed race for juveniles, less than 8 runners, and a beautiful £40,000 chase, a perfect pipe opener for those looking at bigger things, only 5 runners. What can you do?

@thismorning I see that the poppies are back. So the war heroes are actually worth remembering after all.

@PoliticoForYou If John divorces Julie over the 'stress' of all this and gets rid of all his media subscriptions as he can no longer afford them, he will, like Bob Marley, have No Woman No Sky.

[David Patrick Moore @DavidPatrickMo2]

@thismorning Yesterday the presenters were wearing poppies. Today they have removed their poppies in place of stupid costumes and make up. Tomorrow the poppies will return. If This Morning loves Halloween so much then they should wear poppies from 1st November only.

@ITV#thechase When Shaun started singing I honestly thought Sir Mick Jagger was making a guest appearance!

[David Patrick Moore @DavidPatrickMo2]

@GMB Thank You Marverine for pronouncing 'Kamala' Harris correctly. Why do so many journalists still get it wrong? Such a high profile person deserves to at least have her name pronounced right.

[David Patrick Moore @DavidPatrickMo2]

@ITV#thechase Julie is great fun. Her shop must be a laugh a minute. Shame Brad didn't ask her what part of West Yorkshire she comes from. Like Brad, I am ignorant of Yorkshire geography an if I went looking for the shop I would probably be looking in East Yorkshire!

@itvracing Jumping is what it's all about. Dessie was a superb jumper. But he would not won that 89 Gold Cup had Ten Plus not taken a fatal fall at the 4th last. In the euphoria of Dessie winning, people forgot about what had happened to Ten Plus, a fine chaser in his own right.

@BBC I have tuned into The Wheel and caught the end of the Halloween Strictly. Same old songs, same nonsense, other shows people wearing their poppies, Strictly people take their poppies off to wear stupid outfits and make up instead. And BBC wonder why Strictly going downhill.

@BBCSport#footballfocus Many years ago I knew of a mad keen couple of Arsenal fans. When they had twins they named one Liam and one Brady!

[David Patrick Moore @DavidPatrickMo2]

@BBCSport#footballfocus Looking forward to reading Martin's book. I am currently reading one about Man City hero Bert Trautmann. Now he had a story to tell! Looking at Fulhams ground, the old main stand has to be the most uncomfortable in the country!

[David Patrick Moore @DavidPatrickMo2]

@GMB Following on from what Sir Geoff was saying, I can imagine German captain Uwe Seeler saying, 'Gents, I do believe the Russian linesman who is half a mile away, has decided that Geoff's shot has hit the crossbar and crossed the line. If he says it did, he must be right!'

[David Patrick Moore @DavidPatrickMo2]

@GMB John is a genuine broadcasting legend. I was hoping he would come to GMB after Piers left. He would have added some much needed gravitas.

[David Patrick Moore @DavidPatrickMo2]

@itvracing If you ever wanted to know what a thoroughly decent human being looks like, just look towards Jack Berry.

[David Patrick Moore @DavidPatrickMo2]

@itvracing What on EARTH is Matt going on about, comparing Bach and Beethoven to the tactics used by Coolmore in the Long Distance Cup? When all is said and done, Kyprios was simply superior.

[David Patrick Moore @DavidPatrickMo2]

@itvracing I don't think the Long Distance Cup should be upgraded. The field would be no better if it were G1. There are already three G1's in the calender over 2m plus and that is enough.
