The family's assorted reactions to Reg the cat appearing on the outside windowsill, devouring the lower half of a newly caught squirrel.

Linda, wife: "Urgh! Draw the blinds!"
Son, 10: "Eww! Gross!"
Daughter, 9: "COOL! LEMME SEE! LEMME SEE! WANNA SEE THE ENTRAILS!!!"

Random thought.

Shouldn't they actually be called Alvin and the Other Chipmunks?

@martynware @AlanBiggs1 If HP can somehow hold on for a fortnight, then pasting us in round one of the Cup might just give him the fresh impetus he needs.

I fear the bragging rights in my household of two teams with owl mascots won't be mine come 7pm on the 8th.

@DarranPearce @Oliver1878 Bins still the best tool for the discerning racereader, IMO, especially between the flags.

@MRowntreeRacing @MarketRasenRace Chuck in the wind and rain, and that 3m5f28yds will take the world of getting.

If Rasen is getting the same battering we are in Sheffo right now, I wouldn't be hopeful. Time enough for it to go either way, though.

@sam_angelina22 Booked to get the job done at Uttoxeter last Friday on an Irish-trained hitherto eleven-race maiden who'd shown a glimmer the time before. Copybook hold-up ride. Very relieved Spotlight writer rewarded to the tune of 5.5 points and was on at bigger. He'll do for me.

@MikeParcej @CatterickRaces Oh, if only they were allowed to keep it like that come raceday!

It's going back a generation now, but for a short while the now defunct Llanfrynach point-to-point course used to leave its fences like that. Nobody died, and it still attracted runners in quantity.
