I"m really sorry about your lost Carl!
I hope you can win in the WCOAP and dedicate the victory to your grandad... if not, dont worry because i"m sure he is already very proud of you!!!
Best of luck!

So sorry to hear about Woody, Carl  :( Sounds like you"ll have a ton of good memeories to get you and the family through the worst of the sadness so stay strong mate.

I know it may only be a small token but I"m glad to say I"ve got the green light to hold a dress down weekend (probably 2nd & 3rd March) in NHS 24, to help boost the funds for your Muscular Dystrophy charity fundraising. In addition, I"m also hoping to organise some kind of walk round about the same time to raise a bit more. I"ll keep you posted once i have more info.

Hugs to you all, our thoughts are with you.

Last Friday.. As a family we said our final farewells to Woody, a short ceremony at the crematorium followed by a church service, then onto the wake.. An amazing speech by my uncle telling some truly epic stories of my Grandads life, some of which I had heard about and some of which where new to me, and my respect and admiration just grew and grew, never ever have I met such an inspirational human.. Some of the stories had the whole church including a rather straight faced vicar in fits of laughter, tears of joy sorrow and laughter all rolled into one..

Also in the holidays we where graced with the lovely Lucy Amos and her son Louie.. Another couple of nights of hysteria, who would of thought a tv programme centred around the daily going ons in a fried chicken shop could make us laugh so much, and as for dog poo watch now there"s another classic story all together. Our daughter Millie and Louie struck up an instant friendship!! and to see the tears from both of them on departure was so sad in a cute kind of a way, promises of more get togethers in the summer hols I hope will help..

Well as far as poker has gone, obv no live poker for me since Luton.. Online just the odd tournament on stars, and the APAT games, we made it to the knockout stages where we lost to a strong side captained by a certain John Murray, a good battle but in the end the better team where victorious, they had gone in as number one seeds, and proved their worth..
Still playing the Bakers dozen on a Monday evening, rather badly mind you I think I"m bottom of the leader board  ;D if going by games played, not going to make excuses but I have run like poop in them lol.. But the small buy in epic banter and worthy cause really makes it all worth while, cheers Rich was a great idea.. Also I would like to thank Grant who has organised a dress down day at his work with all proceeds going to Muscular Dystrophy, thanks matey much appreciated xx

Well to top off a simply amazing season six for me, is that I have been picked to join Steve, Asa, Tony and Stuart in team England at WCOAP!!
An amazing feeling and I"m like a kid at Christmas time and just can"t wait!! Bloody chuffed and honoured, a really strong team picked by Steve and I"m sure we are going to be in the mix come late Friday evening.. Mind you looking at all the teams I can"t see any weak links (ok Scotland have Naz  ;D) ..

So GOOD LUCK ALL TEAMS .. Will see you all in Nottingham for what will prove to yet be another superbly run APAT event..
