Fat fingers

Last day of my holidays and had a nice walk round Loch Glow. Only about 10 minutes from the house but I'd never been there before. Lovely place.
Watched a replay of the Grand National today as well. What a race. Loads of incidents and sadly horses were destroyed again. What sticks out for me though was the 2 guys at the start trying to sort out the starting tape after the initial false start...and failing! It seemed like for ages that one of them tried to make a hole so that the tape could slip onto the metal starter, but with 40 horses and jockeys bearing down on him and the world watching in super close up on tv, it just wasn't happening for him. His mate meanwhile was pulling the strangest of faces as the stress of the situation got to him. Great telly, but you've got to feel for them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhws3IJcnUo Reminded me of when I'm trying to get doggy pooh bags open, or supermarket bags when you're at the checkout. The harder I try to open them the longer it takes.
Oh, and my horse was second...
