And they call our racegoers trashy...

LAST November, the British press went feral on scenes of female racegoers who were a little tired and emotional at the end of Melbourne Cup day. Today, we repay the favour.

The Brits held their annual Grand National jumps racing carnival on the weekend, a 174-year-old event which is cruel on horses, and even crueller on those who value the sadly antiquated concept of dignity.

Fortunately, no horses were killed in this year's outbreak of equine brutality. But self-respect died a horrible, gruesome death.

Let's face it, this was always going to end badly.

British women reportedly splashed out on nearly 2000 litres of fake tan for the weekend, and purchased 38,000 pairs of stiletto heels. Skirts, apparently, were optional.

Give them some credit. British racegoers clearly love their racing. And it goes down all the better with a nice cup of warm British beer sipped through a straw. Aaaaah.

Now back to the lovely ladies pictured higher up. There is some suggestion they were from a reality TV show or a band or something. Either way, the longer the day they went on, the less they wore.

Take a breath...

Ready?

Here goes then.
