Last Thursday our office spent the afternoon in the sun at the Sandown Race Track in Esher, Surrey (25 minutes southwest of London). I'd never been to a horse races and got a quick education on betting, odds and horse racing etiquette. We were in the 'Premier enclosure' and it was lovely to see so many people dressed for an afternoon at the races even if one could be sure there was some fairly dodgy dealing going on.
To cap an afternoon drinking at the racetrack we spent the evening on the Queen Mary , moored on the Thames where yours truly drank too much rosé and didn't get home until after 3. I didn't recover until Sunday.
Pictures are here.
I'm too old ...
