A lot of fantastic footage, although you may want to alter your display's aspect ratio to suit the video.

I have this photo on my office wall. I've always wondered why all the seats in the shale-end of the paddock in front of the long stand were kept unoccupied that day. Anyone know?

This has just been posted in the Australian section (link to full article in the post).

I'm putting a link to it here because it's an excellent read and I know some TRLers get homesick if they venture off the main forum.
