I understood the response even less than I understood HesTheOne's original post so I thought I'd kill the conversation and save further embarrassment.
Different world...

ps Someone sent me a list of emjoi meanings earlier so I feel like I have made some progress today...

Hahaha

I'm looking forward to some 'jazzier' messages in the future then

With Marie’s Rock going Relkeel I believe not Long Walk ….starts to look like Mares might be on cards again?

Even when rubbish last time her RPR is up with most of current lot …..so 33-1 cashout looks great value

Sorry, what is a github ?

Sorry but this made me laugh quite a lot :highly_amused:

But yes HesTheOne, I used to use google sheets to import the data but it was blocked by cloudflare, so I modified a script that Zachx02 sent me to scrape the data into excel, set up some bat files to run the python scripts, imported that data to the old Google sheets then I had some more scripts on there to compare to the previous data that was stashed and print out the differences. I still have access to the Google Sheets stuff obviously so it's only the scraping stuff that is missing. To be honest, if you know Python then it would probably be easier to write the whole thing in python now, but Python isn't my bag (and I couldn't be arsed).

Happy to help in whatever way I can :encouragement:

If this is deliberate, it's brilliant...

Some brilliant contradictions in the Henderson articles today :highly_amused:
Described as fearless !! (must be a first) and simultaneously admitting to shitting himself Christmas Day before Constitution Hill runs against handicappers, with 2 stones in hand.

Jonbon going to clarence House.

Which one of you works for the Racing Post ?, as this article has been edited and the word "fearless" removed :highly_amused::highly_amused::highly_amused:
