We already knew that.......nar start acting like it :heyhey: :heyhey: :heyhey:

my dad was on the door at the dog track checking membership cards in the club upstairs
ted savage we lived in the flats on daker row our living room overlooked the track
it looked great all lit up at night.
sometimes in the summer they would have open days and have special races i remember being exited to see afgan hounds in a race beautiful sight they also had sports events for us kids in the middle of the track
