Great, you say, you'll be sipping champers with the toffs and applauding as your horse gallops breezily across the line thereby adding to your already brimming wallet. Then you'll mingle with the toffs and gentry and amaze them with your wit and nonchalance as you casually pocket what for some could be a year's salary.
No I won't. I'll be waiting in the car park with all the other schmucks, dying of thirst and trying not to laugh as the aforementioned toffs emerge, paralytically drunk and all attempting to climb into the wrong car; avoiding copious quantities of abuse, vomit and moans of despair or triumph.
Can't wait. I love Royal Ascot.
I shouldn't have painted this. Now I'm going to have to think up a story or even a whole novel to go with it.
Another Hoodia novel,perhaps?
ReplyDeleteI feel one coming one.
DeleteKeep your own champer in the car for those thirsty moments. I can't imagine just sitting in a car waiting. Sounds too boring. Interesting painting. Love the contrasts.
ReplyDeleteI don't drink, and the only champagne I do like is about 50 squillion pounds a bottle.
DeleteI've changed the painting entirely now as is my wont.
