    Good Morning to you, while it's getting on for noon over here :)

    I spent a lovely Sunday afternoon at our local racecourse

    in fine weather and with an, of course, unequalled touch of Ascot. :rolleyes:

    Fringe events included a beauty contest

    as well as a hat contest,

    the winner being a hat called "Head in the clouds" (not to be seen here).

    My horse achieved a decent result. At first I thought he would be a bit of a disappointment..

    Dogs did not compete...

    Great pictures. Love the outfits especially the hats.

    The expression on the man standing behind William is priceless!:D
