As they enter the final furlong it’s theraven 1979 way, way out in front from the rest of the pack, eagerly in the sights of Gizzard and his rider, Shuggy Cromwell. Crass is in third with the rest of the pack close behind; these remarkable horses sweating profusely in this glorious Aintree sunshine. This has been a spectacular race. Organ Grinder follows from Crass with Dom P holding well in fifth. Next, there is raveninblack, out for part of this season but riding well. Alias and Paulinblack fight it out between themselves as they hold at seventh and eighth respectively; both horses visible at practically all the major meetings this season. Behind this pack and plainly with fuck all chance of catching theraven 1979, I can just make out the last two horses : ThruBeingCool, a quite remarkable four legged wonder and the only horse ridden by a Cyberman from the original Doctor Who series. I can see the Cyberman. What is his name ? John ? Steve ? Derek ? Who cares ! It's a Cyberman riding the thoroughbred ThruBeingCool and he's looking over his shoulder, menacingly pointing his whip as he sees the fast approaching paulinlondon and behind him, hang on, I'll just don my binoculars and yes, I think it is Rich ! "We want Rich ! We want Rich !" shout the crowd, eagerly willing him back with the frontrunners. This has been a fantastic race but I'm bursting for a pint and nursing a semi so I'll hand you back to Peter.

Now get back to work.

And this kids, is the reason why we don't tend to advocate attending work with a hangover. Work will become just a minor distraction from more pressing duties such as aimless waffle in a vague attempt to rekindle Derek and Clive's golden moments. Far less likely to result in cerebral burnout ennit.

Give that man anothernuerofen!

Did you hear about the horse that got a job in a watch factory? All he did was stand around making faces.

Oh, the top ten posters.

And 'ThruBeingCool' was asked to comment about his current position in the forums league:

"Well, I gotta admit it's been a disappointing year 'post wise'. But all the odds have been stacked against me, quite honestly. First, I was 'binned' for a few days back in April. Then a new forum was invented so a few of my posts went elsewhere for a while. On top of this there has been the recent injury problems. (i.e. my brand new laptop had to go in for repair - due to a suspected alcohol spillage, but that's all I wanna say on this subject!).

Unfortunately though people take advantage of the situation. Take 'Paulinblack' for instance. Our post count was more or less level a few weeks ago. But did he do the gentlemanly thing and lay low himself for a while. Oh no! Stuck as many one-liners in as he could didn't he? Pah!

As for the likes of 'PaulinLondon' and 'Alias' well! Don't get me started! I estimate that 50% of their posts consist of either "Good Evening" or simply just an emoticon. I mean, anyone can do that! However, it's the likes of 'Gizzard' I blame for starting this type of trend. Oh! ...almost forgot about 'Ravenlunatic'. All I can say is, does wot it says on the tin.

Don't get me wrong though. I'm not arsed at all about gaining a higher position. Good luck to those who are, that's wot I say. At the end of the day it's quality NOT quantity that counts. At least I'm safe in the knowledge that my posts are genuinely witty, thought-provoking, informative and entertaining. Ya know, a lot like wot Alan Hillier posts...."

At this point Mr ThruBeingCool was handed his coat and asked to leave the building.
