I am sorry if I upset anyone on my table on Saturday.  Was still hammered from the Friday night I didnt realise I stayed in so long until I read the Forum.  If APAT let me play in Ireland I promise to stay sober, meet some really nice people and some great one (Scouse Paul drop me a PM if you get a chance).  Big WOOP WOOP to the APAT team and the Mayberry (including Lurch).
