The hour is close now. See you all tomorrow. Only one way to sign off this thread

The old Land of my Fathers
Is dear to me
Land of poets and singers
Famous men of renown
Her Brave Warriors
Very splendid patriots
For Freedom Shed Their Blood
My Nation,
I am true to my Nation
While the sea is a wall
To the pure most loved land
O may the old language endure

See you tomorrow Rodders, I can"t get on youtube but I"m assuming this is your favourite Karaoke song Men of Harlech?

Charlie44:
Thanks for the opportunity Steve to play in the team event. I really enjoyed the event despite the disappointing result. Well played to yourself and all other team members. I am looking forward ( if selected) to next year already.  

nyerun:
I"d like to say the same Steve, thanks for the opportunity and I hope I won"t be too far off the team next year!

DodgyEnd (Tom APAT.be):
Well guys, you can"t win "em all... so Wales will be back on top next time.

AAroddersAA:
Hi Guy"s (both Welsh Teams)

This post is my honest thoughts not just the post that you are suppose to put up after one of these.

Just want to say the commitment and determination from both Welsh teams was beyond anything that anybody could have expected or asked for - thank you.

Wales A. Mike and Steve both grinded the STT"s and picked up the points I knew they both would, they both ran bad in the MTT at really important times otherwise it would have been a different result. Aneurin put in a great performance in both sitngo"s but did not run well either, he was playing the MTT really well but I had to tell him to change gears, which he duly did and got really unlucky again. Sian also picked up good points in the STT"s and then ran deep in the MTT to be the top points scorer in either Welsh team, fantastic achievement when you consider the players involved. Was great being a part of the team.

Although I am over the moon with the A teams effort and performance the B team also deserve a mention. Both Rudders are two of the best players in APAT and people who have my total respect as players and people, they will be back in action for Wales soon I have no doubt and will be winning more medals. Gary is a great player who I think does not always get the credit he deserves (which is a lot, and I mean A LOT). He certainly justified his selection as Welsh captain in this event and I doubt it will be the last time we see him in the Red shirt representing Wales. Warren Jones and Darren Shallis are two more of the best all round players you will come across, if they were not Welsh they would have represented their team in numerous other team events recently and would walk into almost any other team. They both proved this in both the Home Nations and the events this weekend. The standard of players in this area is amazing. Well played to all of you.

Both teams, it was a great performance. We all know you need that little bit of luck at the right time in poker and I think we can honestly say we did not get it in this event (last year we did so we can"t complain). The event was still a great one and I hope you all get places in the teams next year should you wish to play it. I loved being Welsh captain for the second year in a row, it was a great honor, next year it will be time to give somebody else the chance as there is no shortage of great candidates.

Thank you all again.
