Train Smash Time

Oh yeah, baby:  it’s that time of year when the Grand National is run at Aintree, and when we can look forward to some Train Smash Women and their antics.

Only, this year?  Not as much fun as usual… so far:


Too many regrettable decisions to count, in that last one.

A couple, it seemed, didn’t get the memo:

…but a lot of others did, and dressed accordingly:

That said, I think these pics were taken mostly in the early morning, before the booze had a chance to do its work.

On the other hand, maybe it’s just that nobody could afford to get wasted.  HFS, look at those prices:

Racegoers will be expected to pay £7.50 for draught beers (not including Guinness) and ciders, while a 330ml can could cost up to £7.

Meanwhile, a single serving of wine is set to cost £9.50 with a full bottle priced at £37.50.

A bottle of Prosecco will set punters back £46 while a bottle of Gobillard Brut Champagne totals a staggering £85.

Cocktails are priced at £13 each, with soft drinks costing £3.20 and a can of water £2.90 itself.

We’ll just have to wait and see.  More to follow.


Update 1:  Okay, despite the cost of booze, that’s a little more Train Smash-y…


And then came… Ladies Day.

Monday Funnies

Yep… Monday, in a nutsack.  Meanwhile, on the Funny Front:


As my friend Patterson says:  “Most days, I don’t even want sex.  Just… silence.”

And just a teeny detour with a little something for our OCD friends:

And back we go to our scheduled programming:

And speaking of long drinks of water on a sunny day, here’s some Robert McGinniss mcgoodness:

Now finish dressing and head off into Monday.

Easter Weekend Recap

So when deciding to celebrate Easter, i.e. the miracle of the Resurrection, one asks oneself:  “What would Jesus do?”

Well, having changed water into wine at least once, why not go out on the town?

Okay, I’m thinking that’s more like “Mary Magdalene: The Early Years” but then again, I’m an atheist;  what do I know?

Monday Funnies

Apparently last week’s Funnies were too silly, so today we’ll go all cerebral, with historical references, brain teasers and stuff.

 

 


(this may become a series on this website)

And now some interfaith adorableness:

And an exercise in relativity:

Finally:  also from last week, there were a few (hundred) moans about the modesty of the ladies’ clothing, so today we’ll make things just a tad racier:

Now off you go to work, and make your own party.

Try not to kill anyone.
