Even Her Ladyship doesnt know everything about everything, much as she would like to pretend she does. I certainly dont and am always grateful to friends who allow me to pick their brains. Special thanks this time to Jill, for excellent tips on Ascot, Henley and not sitting on the ground when you dont have to; Ros, who really did wear the same hat as Princess Margaret to a Buckingham Palace garden party; Ryan, who knows more about horse racing than most people need to; Gill, for telling me about the Grand Prix; and Rebecca, always a fount of wisdom, particularly about the colour of shoes.
