DAY 67 - A DAY AT THE RACES ON THE HOTTEST OCTOBER DAY EVER IN PERTH – BUT THE BEACH BALLS WERE ALL BACK IN THE UK CAUSING MY FOOTBALL TEAM TO LOSE!


Today the mercury reached 37.2 degrees C (99F) which depending on which source you read was either the hottest or perhaps 2nd hottest ever October day in Perth! It was also the first day of racing at the Ascot racecourse and was free entry so the place was packed, unfortunately I think all the horses I backed were feeling the heat and were not even close to getting me a win, so despite the free entry wasn’t a cheap day out. The day got even worse for me when I went out in the evening to watch Liverpool on TV and we lost after a beach ball intervened!
