Ended up in Great Yarmouth with the In-laws (Late 70s?). The Father in Law has always been a dog betting fan so off we went to the track. Can't say that standing in the cold miserable weather watching greyhounds having a crap before running did a lot for me, but he certainly had a ball - even won a few quid.
The stories about feeding cold pies to the dogs were amusing.
