Busuttin detailed that Tagaloa will have his next start in the $300,000 Todman Stakes (Gr 2, 1200m) at Randwick on March 7 ahead of the $3.5m Golden Slipper Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) at Rosehill on March 21 before musing that “he won’t be around next season” if he happened to win the Slipper. Nothing went to plan for the runner-up Hanseatic. His regular rider Luke Currie fell at Moonee Valley on Friday night and was ruled out because of injury.

  • A (Very Personal) History of Barnet and District AC
    A (very personal) history of Barnet and District AC In early 2017 the club magazine Editor wrote to me, saying: “I'd like there to be some things in the next issue relating to the club's 50 anniversary/history etc. Would you be able/willing to contribute something?” Without hesitation I said yes, and here it is. I have chosen to write three parallel intertwined stories. They are the main points in the development of the club in the early years, illustrated with some results and reports from those days from the relevant club magazines, and interspersed with some observations on my own short running career once I arrived on the scene (thankfully for you that was not until 1982!). There are thousands of results and reports, and I have tried to select items of interest and/or relevance. I have tried to not dwell on, or comment too often on, the ‘but things were different/better in them days’ aspect of athletics. I leave you to interpret the content as you wish. Considerable license has been taken in editing down mag reports to their core detail. STEVE CHILTON (with thanks to Brian Fowler and all the club magazine editors) 1 Early days Barnet and District AC was formed in 1967, after a merger of Hampstead Harriers with Barnet AC. Unfortunately, I have not been able to find copies of the club mags from the years before 1974, so the first 6 years are something of a mystery (I copied all Brian Strong’s club mags from 1973 onwards a while ago, at the time I was editor, as he was editor for many of the early years).

  • BUTLINS - Get to Know Us
    BUTLINS - Get To Know Us A lot of things have changed since Sir Billy Butlin opened our first resort in Skegness, Lincolnshire, in 1936 (he wouldn’t even recognise the resorts these days!), but the reason that we’re here remains the same. During the 1930s and the post-war years, Billy could see that Britain had become a stressful place and that families were weighed down with the burden of rebuilding a country. Life had become routine and mundane, words that Billy didn’t like very much at all. He knew that families needed a place where they could get away from it all and just spend some time together – having a laugh and rediscovering those little things that make their family special. He imagined a place of sparkling fun and relaxation for families. That place was our first Butlins resort. Today we know that families work harder and for longer hours than ever. The time we put aside for each other often gets lost in the daily grind – it’s easily done. Our three Butlins Resorts in Bognor Regis, Minehead and Skegness, offer the perfect place for families to unwind, have a great time together and they leave chock-full of precious memories. Yes, a lot has changed over the years, but our purpose remains the same. Generation X vs. Generation Y – A decade of online shopping. Online shopping is among the most popular internet activities and about 80% of the U. S. population buys online, with electronics and tourism (flights, travel, hotels) as the leading categories for online shopping.

    Historical Sites Butlin’s Skegness Butlin’s Skegness The Butlin’s brand name was to define the family holiday experience, and in doing so it was to change the face of the British leisure industry. The historical context Holiday trends in Britain in the early 20th century By the late 19th century, the railways had opened up most of the country to tourism and holidays in the countryside or, for most people, at the seaside. The initial beneficiaries of cheaper transport were the middle classes, but by the turn of the century the tradition of the British working-class holiday was firmly established, especially to seaside resorts, whether as a long stay visit or a daytrip. Resorts such as Blackpool, Scarborough and Southend became popular, and a whole entertainment industry sprung up to cater to tourists. The census of 1911 reveals that 55% of English people were visiting the seaside on day excursions, while 20% were talking holidays requiring accommodation. Many of the visitors could not afford to stay at expensive seafront hotels and sought out cheaper accommodation in guesthouses and “bed and breakfast” houses. The first guesthouses had a reputation for being run-down places, ruled by tyrannical landladies with lists of rules and regulations. As standards improved, families often returned to the same guesthouses year after year. Camping became popular in the late 19th century, and after the First World War, “pioneer camps” opened, offering basic accommodation with a “hands on” approach. Life under canvas increased in popularity in the inter-war period in line with the trend towards healthy outdoor living.
