Friday 14th June woke up during in night but went back to sleep til 7.30 and when woke up could hear the sheep in the field so made me feel at home as don't hear them in Sydney. I then thought best get up had breakfast and got to have some coconut yoghurt with cereal and haven't had coconut yoghurt for ages. It was then time to go for a run as need to go to try out trainers since didn't fetch mine and doing 10km run on Sunday only did 2.2 miles and didn't like trainers so will have to go tomorrow. Home and get. Ready to go to York races but what to wear decided on white dress with black belt, but belt too big so mum had to make another hole in it. Sharon arrived late as usual but she did fetch food with her pastry's which were good but wasn't a proper Cornish pastry. Mum wearing a fascinator so thought I would wear a hat even though we left later than we wanted we still got their in plenty of time. As soon as we arrived first stop was drink and went to top which gave you a nice few off the races and gave us chance to eye up the carvery. Then it was to decide who to bet on was 7 races in total, me and Sharon decided to bet together and we kept thinking of betting on ones then changing at last minute. Then obvisiously the ones we thought of at first either got placed or won typical as in 4th race was 'Yorkshire Relish' which were tempted then changed and won. But I suppose it is always luck of the draw but mum and dad were having slightly more luck than us. We decided to have afternoon tea instead of the carvery and was very nice but think I preferred the savoury to the sweet options. As had duck spring rolls, samosa's, sausage rolls which were all very nice and some of the sweet were abit of a late down apart from the scone with jam and cream. So since we were having afternoon tea we missed the 6th race but me and Sharon actually won in the last race we bet on 'Singzak' it didnt win it only come 2nd. But at least it was our first win of the day and 'Looks like Rain' won and after won it chucked it down so we got a little wet getting our winnings good job I had my hat on. The last race finished at 5.15pm but gave it half an hour til we left to avoid traffic which wasn't too bad. Once home we didn't need food as still full from our afternoon tea so just stayed in with mum and dad had sparkling wine but at about9ish falling asleep on sofa so went to bed.
