Tell them it's not a "funeral" as such, but you have a body to get rid of and is there any chance they help you?

Definitely avoid them if they say they endorse using acid.

Listen to him on the radio and he lurves them. Or just sounds that way not to sound bias towards Crows which then makes it worse.

Re: Things that give you the sh1ts
Approaching the 20 year mark of heading to the Quorn Cup every year I've been given terrible news. The meeting for 2016 has been canceled due to safety concerns.
First I was told rabbits had burrowed under and damaged the track, but I've since emailed the Quorn Jockey Club and been told :
"The problem isn't rabbits, its the tightness of the corner after the finish line. Some jockeys feel it is too tight to race safely. The committee is currently looking into solutions and costs to rectify the problem but it is expected to be a costly and lengthy exercise. Because of the current layout of the track there is infrastructure that will limit the adjustments.
We thankyou for your support over the years and hope we see you again next year."
Now, the bold part gets me, really gets me. The "infrastructure" on the outside of the track is pretty much salt bush and scrub. Nothing.
It also seems that the 2017 meeting isn't a sure thing to go ahead :
There is always alot of hard work to host the Quorn cup but we have alot of terrific committee members and a wave of some younger enthusiastic members too as well as support from the community so we will be trying our hardest to have it ready for next year/'
So the annual boys weekend away isn't in Quorn this year....tradition broken.

Go ayway. Sink a few cans, get half of your mates to dress up in pantomime horse suits and run around the track. The rest of you can lean on the salt bushes with cans in hand and cheer them on. After the first half dozen cans it will feel no different from the real thing.

Nothing like it, the horses can make it all the way around.

Re: Things that give you the sh1ts
So get them to stagger around the track. Sink another half dozen cans and you won't even care. Better still get the "horses" to sink a few; It could only enhance the spectacle!
