A man walked into the 'Hit and Miss' pub Bedworth in 1950 after a few month of giving it a miss, he had a few pints then needed a leak, he walked out the door across to the waste land on the opposite side of the street, as all men had done for years, it was very dark, he stood by a wall. A light flashed in his face, a big hand on his shoulder, Right I'm a copper, and your nicked. A few weeks later the story in the telegraph, the council had just built a toilet this was the first day of it being opened and he got caught.
Lord Oaksey (Jockey) was riding a horse i had bet on, enough money to take me back to Italy if it won, He came into the straight well clear and I was thinking of Italian History and where I should visit, he had only one fence to jump well clear, and he puled the horse up, for no reason, cantered back, met the second horse, by the time he realised and got it started again he came second, the crowd booed.
His excuse he coudn't see another horse, he thought he had taken the wrong course.
