"Don't Slow Down" - Mr. Mister, 1985

One of the highlights of British sport is going on this week - the Cheltenham Festival, at the Cheltenham racecourse in Gloucestershire.

Now, I'm not a great fan of horse-y things. But it's hard to avoid all of the reports about events at Cheltenham on sports reports this week.

If you look at the schedule of events on the website I've linked above, you'll see that one of the events today is called the Queen Mother Champion Steeple Chase.

With all due respect to the late Queen Mother, you can only imagine what I'm thinking when I hear the sports reporters talk about the "Queen Mother's chase" coming up today at Cheltenham.

Cue up that Monty Python theme music!
