Hold on to your hats, the rain is back
Galway wouldn’t be Galway if the weather wasn’t the primary topic of conversation outside of the nags. With torrential rain hammering down, locals were reminding the racing blow-ins that it was promised “worse for Friday”. Looking skyward, it was hard to see how it could really get any worse but then a soft day here comes with about 25 inches of rain.
But it takes a bit more than a downpour to stop Ballybrit obsessives from turning out, and in style. The ladies still headed for the course in glad rags. Some of them looked a sorry sight drenched to the bone, huddled around champagne buckets. Who said having fun was easy?
