Melbourne Cup

One of the highlights this week was the Melbourne Cup. It is the biggest Australian horse race and apparently the one that stops the nation because everyone watches the most important race - which takes only about 3min.
Our secretary organised a sweep. She cut out the details of each horse from the newspaper and folded them. Then everyone who was willing to spend $2 could draw one of the horses. The person with the winning horse would win the whole pot. I draw horse number 10 - Viewed. And guess which horse won *bigSmile* It was the closest finish ever.
