Anywhere on Sauciehall Street will do you. Just leave enough change for a fish supper in the cab ranks.

The exclamation mark at the end there has scared me a bit :-\

I do tend to over use the exclamation mark :( but only to accentuate a point ;D I"ve had plenty of good nights on Ashton Lane, both midweek and weekend. Great atmosphere, very friendly.

Pilgrim"s Progress
Due to my unfortunate lack of broadband I never quite got round to a proper write up after the ECOAP, don"t worry I"m not going to start one now :P
Other than to say an extended weekend at DTD saw some of my APAT favourites finally get their long awaited rewards with Golds in the team, 6 max & of course main event. I had the good fortune of sharing most of Day 1 at that ME on our starting table 35 with a certain Carl Pilgrim, with whom I enjoyed a few laughs, a few friendly confrontations with his pocket jacks, all in the company of many other fine fellows along the way who treated me to a very enjoyable 10 hours, which I"m sure will be hard to top at any future poker table. These included Bob Bulman, Chen Tam, Kevin O"Hanlon, Chris Peers and Carl"s eventual HU opponent Dean Marden.
Until this point I"d had very few opportunities to share a table with Carl other than during a some of the APAT online encounters, during which I"ve found him to be a solid player respected highly by all on our great site. He & Emma have been sound company when we meet up & I"m glad I"ve got to know them a bit more over the past few years, so I was as delighted as anyone when he proved to himself (as if proof was actually needed ::)) he"s a fine player of this mad game we"ve all come to love, and he overcame a fine field of 276 players to secure one of the biggest titles and prizes APAT has provided in it"s first 6 seasons. Well done again Mr Pilgrim 8) All the very best at your future AV events and I look forward to our next APAT meeting.

Very well done to Paul Sefton on winning the ECOAP online ME last night, great performance from The Sef with an impressive 2nd for Graeme Morl. Thoroughly enjoyed the game, despite hitting most of my nice hands early on and not getting paid for the big pre flop hands in later stages. Also enjoyed the banter at FT between Al Armitage and Tom Clark in a light hearted Scotland v England confrontation that involved quite a bit of fish & chips and didn"t get out of hand ;D
