The race that stops the nation eh? Well it certainly is the one where people can get away with doing bugger all, drink at work, and place way more bets than thery usually do or should.
It will hopefully also signal the end of the endless, endless betting commercials. Don’t get us wrong, we love to bet, but with the many betting companies vying for your tuppence this spring it is getting painful.
Although, The Gurgler has dabbled in the Ladbrokes offer of maximum $1o million for picking the first 7 in order. Sounds easy, of course it is. Will we give our numbers? Up yours we want the 10 million to ourselves. We’ll give you our first 6 then sort the rest out yourself.
Anyways, we had reasonable success on Saturday, so the skies the limit, except if you’re on a Virgin Galactic.
