Enjoying today, after an early kick up the bum to wake me up. Feels good to be getting up early as well. :D

Up early? I'm assuming some night shift trading keeps you awake late?

Yeah, a combination of some naff Aussie racing and a painful shoulder injury has resulted in nights off and more sleep.

As I write, the last race at Happy Valley brings the Hong Kong season to an end, and good riddance to it. :D

Yes! I always hated jockeys doing that. The Handcapper will take a very dim view & give the horse a right whacking in the weights!! :o

I'd imagine Derek's Library is full of written warnings.... he probably has a few pride & joy ones that he's collected over the years.

Twice now I've pressed the wrong button & ended up on the wrong side. Back to breakeven through my error is frustrating.

Traded Australia, UK, Ireland and US, and ended the day with a cool 15 pence profit. :)
