Post Of The Day

I had to go to the stewards today and ask for expert legal advice on the photo finish. But that wonderful chronicler Lin wins by the narrowest margin, with the many-splendoured Privy Counsel - and what a wonderful post title it is, too. Close on her heels are Jo Beaufoix with Plastic Fantastic and Deborah Gamble with Meanest Mom Ever. And because I'm a former sportswriter, I give a big thumbs-up to An English Mum for her post The Pits; and a vote of confidence to Mushy for Watching in the Mississippi Night and to Akelamalu for her version of Toy Story.
