Norm's Notebook: August 2016
http://www.notes-from-the-north.co.uk/2016_08_01_archive.html
A view from the paddock. Friday, 26 August 2016. It actually felt like the middle of winter as the rain pelted the tarmac on the road north to Co.Durham as the action resumed at Sedgefield on 'Ladies Night'. However it was dry on arrival and remained so for the majority of the evening, with the ground riding true to the description of Good. I thought the market was about right for the opening novices' handicap, where easy Southwell scorer No Ceiling. Was well-in for this chasing debut. Quick Brew was wel...
Norm's Notebook: Catterick
http://www.notes-from-the-north.co.uk/2017/01/catterick.html
A view from the paddock. Thursday, 12 January 2017. I always get a buzz when I come to the Bridge, I don't know why but driving up beside the home straight always sets the juices flowing. It helps when you know you have a good thing tucked away later on the card, but more of that in good time. The strong winds had abated and the going looked just on the soft side of good. Maulesden May did not have the size or scope to serve it up to the odds on jolly Giveaway Glance. To be fair answer most he did, but t...
Norm's Notebook: November 2016
http://www.notes-from-the-north.co.uk/2016_11_01_archive.html
A view from the paddock. Wednesday, 30 November 2016. The return of NH action at the Bridge usually heralds great feelings of joy, but this was not a card to enthuse over and what a ghastly sight it was for value seekers as six of the seven jollys went in unchallenged, with the other withdrawn at the start. The conditionals' hurdle was split and they looked anything-but competitive affairs, the market leaders looking to be ones to concentrate on. The juvenile hurdle wasn't a great one, Skelton's Does It ...

http://www.notes-from-the-north.co.uk/2017_01_01_archive.html
A view from the paddock. Sunday, 29 January 2017. The forecast hadn't looked great but the meeting beat the frost and the ground looked pretty good all round, as is often the case here a little looser on the chase track. We headed to Town Moor with a few bullets to fire, non bigger than in the opener where Midnight Cowboy was returning to the scene of his victory over Aliandi, form that I felt was pretty strong. I had a strong feeling Behind The Wire. Time has seen him mature but he still got very warm, ...
Norm's Notebook: March 2016

A view from the paddock. Saturday, 26 March 2016. Some good quality action throughout the card although we were all waiting on weather conditions with a band of rain forecast to strike before and during racing. As it happened it didn't arrive until before the sixth race, which meant it favoured those hoping for good ground and caused the withdrawal of a few soft ground merchants. The opener was a deep mares race and they were not easy to separate beforehand. The winner Lady Of Longstone. At the festival ...

Horse Racing - A View From Scotland. Regular reports on Scottish Horse Racing. Saturday, 29 November 2014. Saltire Festival' Meeting at Musselburgh. MUSSELBURGH – Friday November 28. Going – Good. A low class card but, with good going prevailing after a reasonably dry spell in Scotland, decent sized fields unlike at a number of other courses of late. 1205 3m ½f Saltire Conditional Jockeys’ Handicap Hurdle (64-100). CLONLENEY raced keenly up with the pace and was beaten three out. LEROY PARKER was a fair ...

Horse Racing - A View From Scotland. Regular reports on Scottish Horse Racing. Sunday, 7 June 2015. Cycling - Squirrel Criterium at Dunfermline. A bit of a diversion from the normal content, but I had a very smooth journey back from Hamilton racecourse on Thursday June 4th in time to catch the Women's and Men's races around the Dunfermline circuit. This turned into a one man race with Scottish Road Race, Hill Climb and Criterium champion Steven Lawley attacking on the first lap and then pulling steadily ...

Horse Racing - A View From Scotland. Regular reports on Scottish Horse Racing. Saturday, 18 July 2015. Hamilton - July 11. HAMILTON – Saturday July 11. Going – Good to soft (Soft in the loop). 615 5f Class 5 2yo Maiden. A moderate contest with MR CHUCKLES winning a duel against a persistent runner-up. Not a strong race but the pair were clear and the winner showed speed and determination. The favourite SEARANGER didn’t fire and was reported as unsuited by the ground. 645 5f 38-60 3yo Handicap. The third ...
Horse Racing - A View From Scotland: Kelso - Ladies Day closes the spring programme

Horse Racing - A View From Scotland. Regular reports on Scottish Horse Racing. Wednesday, 27 May 2015. Kelso - Ladies Day closes the spring programme. KELSO – Sunday May 24. Going – Good (Good to Firm in places). A bright day for Ladies Day to finish the Kelso spring campaign, with a chilly stiff breeze blowing across the track with the going a tad on the fast side. Decent ground nevertheless though the bends had to sanded early on as they were just a little slippery. NABURN was left in the lead three ou...

Horse Racing - A View From Scotland. Regular reports on Scottish Horse Racing. Friday, 24 July 2015. North goes South to Newbury. NEWBURY – Thursday July 23. Going – Good to Firm. A trip south to visit family in Berkshire gave me a chance to visit Newbury for the first time in 10 years. The course is no more than 15 minutes drive from Mum’s place. 500 7f Arab Handicap (0-60). The meeting opened with an Arab event over seven furlongs, an event advertising the decent Arab card coming up on Sunday 26. Paddo...
Horse Racing - A View From Scotland: September 2014
http://scotracing.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Horse Racing - A View From Scotland. Regular reports on Scottish Horse Racing. Sunday, 14 September 2014. PERTH – Good. 220 2m 4f 110yds Scottish Food and Drink Day. Novices’ hurdle (Class 4). On a day of small fields this wasn’t a bad little contest. Ryan Mania reported ‘lovely ground’. Downpatrick winner BIG KERN, a bit too keen going to start, closed approaching the seventh but was held from two out. His win was on heavy ground which may help him more. SOLWAY DORNAL put in a superb round of jumping an...

THORPE has had a tendency to find one or two too good under a penalty in these events. He ran a sound enough race. HA’PENNY WOODS looks ...

Horse Racing - A View From Scotland. Regular reports on Scottish Horse Racing. Saturday, 19 July 2014. Lysa Nad Labem Racecourse (Czech Republic). Saturday July 5th 2014. Transport from the station at Lysa Nad Labem isn’t quite so straight forward and if you are thinking of visiting then it might be worth doing a bit of spade work in advance. Details of Czech racing and meeting schedule can be found at the Czech Jockey Club website. Which translates reasonably well. The course website can be found at.

Notes from the Island
Notes from the Island. The Island welcomes everybody. Every day many visit and thousands pass close by, though few notice it. It is a place of brief encounters, of buried secrets, of moments glimpsed in rear-view mirrors. A brief pause on a journey. The Island has no border controls, no prisons, no buying and selling. Is it a utopia? Monday, May 05, 2008. The Face of New Cross. The supposed face on Mars. Is well known, but what about the face of the New Cross Island? Posted by Transpontine @ 1:48 pm.

Notes From The Moon
Notes From The Moon. I am sitting on the Moon overlooking the Earth, thinking of nothing. Thursday, August 18, 2011. We are all parts of each other. I have an ever increasing feeling that everything I see around me is nothing but a dream. Can it even be real? I feel that if I touched any usual image of "reality" it would burst like a soap bubble. Can people be so blind and unintelligent to create a kind of world we live in? I hope the new world will come where people will not need to pretend.

Notes From ABroad
Life as an expat in Buenos Aires. View my complete profile. It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is. Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read.". The doors we open and close each day decide the lives we live. Tuesday, April 10, 2018.

Notes-fromlisa.blogspot.com is all about walking in grace, walking out of legalism. It has nothing to do with living an unholy, unrighteous life, but just the opposite- living it totally through the power of God, so only He can glory. I can't do it, but He specializes in making me righteous. Wednesday, April 4, 2018. What Happened to Integrity? Let your eyes look straight ahead, fix your gaze directly before you. Give careful thought. To the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways. As this ...
