ROYAL ASCOT 2002

OK, so the photo was taken in the shade - but I didn't take it. I'm thankful that my charm and charisma worked on a friendly car park attendant who took this snap of us.

So, the suit doesn't fit and daughter Jodie looks embarassed. I don't think she'll be showing this photo to many friends.

And I look like I'm dressed up as the Penguin, so where's Batman then?

Jodie and I went to watch Smokin Beau run in the King's Stand Stakes, on the first day of Royal Ascot. Smokin didn't make the five and faded when leading into the final furlong.
