A highbrow evening in Melbourne

Classy way to spend a Saturday night. At the Greyhound Racing in Broadmeadows. $5 entry, free parking and a guaranteed good night out for all. Especially if you're picking winners left, right and centre like I was.

Tonight just galvanised the dream of buying a dog and naming it after our (faltering severely) indoor soccer team - that's Chickempron Submarine for those who came in late. If we get enough people to go in on the scam idea it might just work.

UPDATE - I forgot to mention that whilst I saw plenty of 'colorful racing identities' (i.e potential crooks) there were no sightings of men in trenchcoats kicking dogs or injecting them with large quantities of canine steroids. Which was disappointing. Maybe next time!
