“It’s like trying to go to sleep in a room full of mosquitoes,” Mr De Blauw said of race days." (quote from the article)

does he sleep during daylight hours? i have no recollection of the event being conducted in the evenings.

this is typical of the current mind set of canning everything that is deemed politically incorrect. and the decisions are being made by those with the narrowest of tunnel vision and can't see past the ends of their noses.

this was the best event Melbourne staged for us enthusiasts to let rip.

poop to the wowsers. :
