LOL...Horses and cake, but more precisely, liquorice is about all there is, except a castle that had Cromwell locked in its dungeons and Richard the Second was a regular resident. There is a lot of important history in the area but generally speaking, it's a shithole!
A little trivia on the racecourse. 1. Its the longest continual circuit in Europe. 2. The hill approaching the finish line has cost me a fortune over the years! But the mid-sommer Friday evening meeting is absolutely one of the best, and most raucous fun events in the whole sporting calendar!
Geoff Copper lol...thanks for pointing that out. It's actually a typo and his name was Cooper but you're absolutely spot on. There are massive coincidinks everywhere!
Reminds me of when I lived in Newbury... Not the hill, just approaching the finish line 🤣🤣🤣
