Melbourne Cup

One of my favourite days of the year! 
Well, more so for all those years I was working in the city and we'd dress up and enter the office sweep stakes, take a long lunch and then and stop for nibblies and bubbly while watching the big race.

What has everyone got planned for Melbourne Cup?
I think this is the most low key Melb Cup I've ever had - absolutely no plans :( 
I'll have to stick a fascinator in my hair before I switch on the TV to watch the big race.

  4. HI Janette - spare a thought for me in the office, no lunches, no bubbles and not even a TV in sight!

  6. Janette, we missed the cup. We went to the tip to empty the trailer and when we got back realised it had been and gone. How sad is that!
