AIBU?

to think that if you go through a thread on here just reading the names it sounds like the commentary on the horse racing?

I've just tried to find out if there has been a horse called Shatner's Bassoon, and it seems as if there is, but only on a gambling machine game that's popular in America Confused

BodaciousTatas? How did they get that past the horse naming folk? Or do I just have a dirty mind?

Bodacious Tatas was indeed a racehorse! She was born in 1985 and raced 15 times in the USA, winning 5 times and over $400,000 in prize money.

The rules in America, where this horse was born, are slightly different, they will allow things that the UK won't and vice versa.

I'd be very surprised if a racehorse had my name (would be epic though-i bet the queen would use the name!)

Alf Ramsay's Porn Dungeon :)
Years ago Rich Hall did an advert where he stood on a rain soaked Scottish hillside in a fur cap. He said "Auchtermuchty, everyone said 'wear the Fox hat"
