Melb Cup

I don't bet, and I couldn't tell you the names of the horses, but I love the Melbourne Cup!

I love watching it and I get excited about who will win. And then promptly forget all details - couldn't tell you any past winners.

Can't beat a good national event! Like all top Australian events, this one is more about eating and drinking than anything else. Gotta love it.

I'm the same. No cemented knowledge of it in my mind, just that I enjoy it and every so often I extra enjoy it when it's on the 4th :)

I won $15 in the school sweepstakes today. Haven't been that lucky for a long time.

Gran gets into it. Papa is not interested. I done a few $$. Nice it was on Yram day.

Yup and I had birthday luck! Jules and I put money on number 4 and got back $106!!!! I don't think I've ever won on a bet before so it must have been the magic birthday number :)
