BEN’S BLOG: ‘It’s great to be back at The Dogs’

[dropcap]B[/dropcap]log, is there a place that you feel totally at peace with yourself? Surrounded by people, who you might not know personally, but you ‘know’. At ease. Comfortable and confident in what you are doing. For some, it might be playing a particular sport, or painting, or cooking. For me, it’s making a book at The Dogs.

It really has been fun, working again with Lofty (who’s been doing the card), and Michelle (my trusty clerk). And catching up with so many old friends and faces too, who have travelled from all over the country, to come and watch the Derby Heats.

No Gambling Commission forms to fill out. No swarms of emails filled with incorrect figures to then make incorrect decisions from. No HR impositions to take on. No Knockers to chase up. JUST STANDING ON A PITCH, TAKING CASH BETS.
