continued from reprisal broome cup

Sorry folks but I am having trouble with the News page

I will try and finish and hopefully this will get Published  -  COMPUTERS!!!!!!


WATCH THIS SPACE  -----------------------------------------------

In the next couple of weeks Peter will share some exciting news.


AMELIA PARK
Peter had an enjoyable weekend with Susan and Eileen spending the weekend.  Susan thoroughly enjoyed her Birthday Present from Peter with a day of Pampering at the Day Spa.
Peter then hosted a beautiful Dinner Party on Saturday Night.
Unfortunately he did receive an UNINVITED GUEST TOWARDS MIDNIGHT.

I couldn't resist after arriving home from a Party - PETERS HOUSE LIGHTS WERE ON - you CAN TRULY SEE THEM FROM AFAR - BIT LIKE A LIT UP CITY.  I went and gate crashed - I cant believe I did that - TOTALLY EMBARRASSED. 
PETER HAS A NEW NAME FOR ME  -   "THE MOTH"  Hangs around anywhere there is a light on.
Oops - sorry Peter but he did take it in in usual fun way.


RACING RADIO
Shortty and Wes caught up with Peter this morning on the radio.  It is quite amusing listening to Peter but also very interesting.  You can certainly tell he has a varied and busy life with not only the HORSES but also V & V WALSH AND NOT TO MENTION HIS SUCCESS WITH AMELIA PARK WINES.


Enjoy your racing everyone and hopefully the News Page will behave better next week.

AMELIA PARK FARM
Peter is looking forward to catching up with great friend Susan who will be spending the weekend at the Farm.  Peter gave Susan the weekend of pampering at the Day Spa for her 50th so not doubt the champers and whiskey will be flowing.  ENJOY SUSAN!!

NEARLY A HOT DOG
Jessica's pooch Rascal had a near miss accident when his paw got caught in a rabbit trap.  Luckily he pulled through ok.
Peter did say its a shame that he wasn't taken as a rabbit and knocked on the head and made into a Hot Dog - THEY ARE THE ONLY DOGS HE LIKES!!!!!!
He is a big softie really!!!

STABLES
Owen and Christy are working their tails off as Wanga and Elise are both away.  Abbas has also come on board doing extra days so its a real TEAM EFFORT.

The creek has subsided somewhat from last weeks flood but still gushing through, the birdlife are in their glory at the Farm.


Enjoy your week and look forward to posting News next week from Amelia Park.
