a night at the races

On Wednesday evening we all jumped on the train and headed over to Bath's racecourse for an evening of horse racing. What we hadn't realised is that the race course, on the top of Lansdown, is possibly the coldest and windiest place on earth. Most of the night was spent in the bar, to keep warm of course, punctuated by quick dashes outside to stick a bet on and watch the races. 

Overall we were pretty rubbish at picking winners, having a nice name is, as it turns out not the most reliable way to predict success. Between us we did win a few races but didn't come home any richer as all of our winnings were spent on keeping warm!

Amy won the biggest sunglasses competition.
