Where Was I Last Saturday?

Believe me you really don't want to know. Suffice it to say I missed my first home meeting through illness in 7 years and I was sick as a parrot. Sick being the operative word but that's enough of that! So what happened? Well according to my good mate Camera Ken from T2TV the best meeting in years. I'm sure he wasn't just saying that to make sure sales were hit when news of my absence from the commentary box got around! The action sounded fast and furious with a strange Heat 2 costing us in the end. I've said here before that Nelson is a really exciting talent but I hope he learns to stay on the bike long enough for us to appreciate it. With Little Ben finding the going a bit tough there's extra pressure on our new Aussie to be the steady one who'll consistently notch a few points hopefully that message will get across in the weeks to come starting at Scunny on Friday night. Returning to last Saturday at least I have a decent record when it comes to home defeats in the last 7 years I've missed every one except last years thumping by Edinburgh in the KO Cup. So at least I can assure myself its not me. Well either that or I used up my supply during the dark dark Russell era of the late 80's early 90's.
