I buried my many clouds winning bet slip under a horse chestnut tree. I had tears in my eyes.

What was he doing pal? Was it the veterinary surgeons bullet again?

No he was covering a mare

Was he doing a bit of reporting for The Racing Channel or something?

How did he go in the race after?

What a way to go. Only what we could hope for ourselves, except that it wouldn’t be a mare of course. Except for Elvis, a mare would be too good for the cunt.

No father should see his child die. It must have broken his heart.

What were his “covering duties”?

A bit of part-time secretarial work? Temporary stable cleaner? Maternity leave cover as an equine science lecturer?

Touching tribute from Ed Chamberlain to Consul de Thaix there.
