Horseplay

Some dimbulb forgot that our weekly chronicle ignores public holidays and we arrived to find ourselves electronically barred from the office. Naturally, any folks who could've bypassed/reprogramed the security doors were absent.

There was nothing for me to do but attend the Randwick gallops :-) The atmos was great as always - especially standing on the rail as the horses thundered past. I didn't fare terribly well on the punt, though, with three mediocre collects out of eight races ($20 loss overall).

In between the action, I put a fair dint in "Doctor Who: Island Of Death" (2005) by Barry Letts. Quality prose and it really captures the Pertwee era, particularly Sarah Jane's journo mindset. The Doc and Brig aren't badly drawn, either.
