Buxton Race night

I travelled down to Buxton last with with Kevin, Doreen & Lorraine for Buxtons race night. For anyone not aware of what a race night is then it's like horse racing but with pre recorded races on a big screen. Horses are numbered and you get to bet on which horse wins. The compere makes sure there is some banter and a bit of racing atmosphere as well as 'geeing' up everyone to place their £1 bets.

The buxton lads are a top bunch of tablers lead this year by Simon Mason - who i met at their excellent charter night back in April (day after the Area AGM).

We left around 10:30 as it's almost an hours drive back to the bright lights of the big city and as usual in the peak district it was pissing down!

Cheers Lads - see you at your Charity dedication night in a few months.
