My Preciousssss

 Managed to work the trains out to get to Richmond station and it took three of them. I wasn't intending to get the train back again but since Tim was getting a train and it is free rides for seniors at the weekend so why not.  Except they cancelled my train and I would have had to get off because of Flemington race interlopers anyway, so I exited Spencer St and went outside to find a taxi. I also got to use the secret code on the Village gate to get back in. Between all of that it was boys day out party time.  Some of these lads were looking a bit seedy as they had been at it from the day before. At the Cricketers Arms we had a pool tournament held on small tables which meant we had a better chance of getting some balls in. There was a guy on roller skates trying to hold the cue steady as well as a beer so good effort all around. I think mention should go to Larry and Brendon as the winners if I have remembered that right.  Next stop was the Wharf Hotel for some more drinks and yarns. The whole city was alive with dressed up race goers. This time there was a rather scary guy who kept drawing attention from everybody.  The third venue was off to the Crown Towers for more ribaldry but that is where Tim and  I left them to it.  I think after two nights of this stuff they will be a bit dusty tomorrow.

Can't even go for a wee wee without making new friends
