Sigh another one gone - just cos he"s the son of a Billonaire there was no call to shattter my hopes. She got maried in Clare as well.

"Doonbeg and Miltown Malbay were transformed into a celebrity-watchers' paradise today for Ireland's society wedding of the year.

Singer Andrea Corr kept stockbroker husband Brett Des and a star-studded guest list that included Bono and golfer Padraig Harrington waiting a nail-biting 30 minutes reports The Press Association. At risk of breaking wedding etiquette, U2 frontman Bono almost stole the show as he pulled up with wife Ali in a sleek Italian Maserati sports car."

Playing the league game tonight and - shock horror - checked the fridge - not enough beer FFS only 14 bottles left, and I"ve had a couple so I can"t drive.

Panic.

Carl (Shogun) is my next door neighbour and called in for a chat - turns out he is off to the shops.

Panic over

Phew

Many of you may know one of the earlier members of Chezger Ian Cook. Unfortunately after a brave fight against cancer Ian passed away last night.

It was with great sadness that I received the news this morning and life's frailty is a constant worry. Ian was a strong man and he leaves behind a loving family. 

His humour and his rugby stories, along with his aggressive form of poker will be greatly missed

RIP Ian.

Now the week's itinerary will have to be set and I have one little problem with it

Wed 26th
Drive to the Airport to pick up Dawn @ approx 5pm
Chezger home game that night  - liver alert (webcam will be active)

Thursday 27th
Crawl out of bed, prise tongue off the roof of my mouth with a toothbrush, honk up half a kilo of lung and face the day.
Drive to Nottingham, check into hotel, have a substantial meal (anyone for a meet up?), head for DTD
Play the PLO with panache, skill, and patience
End up hopefully back in the hotel at some stage safe in the knowledge that my winnings are on their way to BSQ.

Friday 28th
Rinse and repeat the crawl out of bed sequence
Get in the right frame of mind for the main event with a 10 mile jog
Eat a hearty meal
Play the ME with panache, skill, and patience
Make day 2 and end up back at the hotel.

Saturday 29th
Rinse and repeat the crawl out of bed sequence

Now here is my real dilemma. A Chezger member is having a stag do and the Muppet is holding it in Nottingham. I have regged for the DTD £50 but that is looking like a bad choice. Will I meet up with the lads, probably, will I be sober at 8pm, you figure.

So de-reg or just meet up with the guys in the afternoon and drink orange juice. Views please.

Sunday  30th
Rinse and repeat the crawl out of bed sequence
Decide whether to sell the HORSE seat or multi table (Hey a guys gotta hope)
Hit DTD make my mind up and play with panache, skill, and patience

Monday 31st
Rinse and repeat the crawl out of bed sequence
Get Dawn to the airport for 1pm
Go home and quietly fade into oblivion

Priceless

Is John Beddington, the UK government"s chief scientific adviser, a clever man or is he a harbringer of doom - discuss

The clever man points to research indicating that by 2030 "a whole series of events come together":

   * The world"s population will rise from 6bn to 8bn (33%)
   * Demand for food will increase by 50%
   * Demand for water will increase by 30%
   * Demand for energy will increase by 50%

will I start to panic

I thought that this was what ger was refering too when he said he had a problem with part of his itinery!!

As for the saturday dilema -- I dont really think that there is a dilema - we all know what will happen - Duke will end up going out - avoiding the orange juice and heading back to DTD for an 8pm start!!!! ;D ;D
