be fussy
over
horses..
Fussy about their training
-fussy about who rides them. Personally I find it's the only way. For instance, I don't much care to lead in a lucky winner; but it gives me the rarest pleasure to watch any thoroughbred ridden to a faultless victory.

the day's business.
"Good mornings May we see some wrist watches?" one asked.
"Certainly, sir,” said one of the assistants.
"Then stick 'em up," said the gunman.

The assistants, their arms the air, were forced into the back room, tied up and gagged.
Then proprietor Roy Johnson ar- rived. He was just as expeditious- ly dealt with.
Mr. Lansbury went into break- fast, and the bandits hurriedly col- lected their £1,200 of jewels and departed. Mr. Johnson revealed later that they overlooked another selection of jewellery worth £46,000.
