So how close would you say these two planes are?

Well apparently they are at least 2 1/2 miles appart!

Just the one game tonight as I’m up early in the morning for a day out fly fishing. It will be my first outing of the season, so I may be gracious and allow Gaz to beat me this one and only time. Full report later on the newts.net. In the mean time, It’s nice to slip straight back into the winning ways with the cards though, I was getting bored with 3rd. Money or no money you can’t beat 1st. Literally! :0)

But even 3rd pays ;0)

Surfing the web tonight I found this strange pic of a bunch of vertical challengers pulling a jet. Stranger than that though, check out the two at the front of each red line…

…I swear it’s ex England Goal Keeper David Seaman and T.V. Chef Anthony Worrall Thompson!

This week Grimsby - - - Next week… Vegas Scunthorpe ;0)

Shame it wasnt $300 :0)

I’ve never seen owt like this before in my entire illustrious fishing career! This is how to catch a boat load of fish with no rod, no reel, no line, no net, no bait… Just a torch! This is fishing made easy.

Having re-formatted my pc recently I’ve been kind of busy with what time I spend at the pc getting it back looking how it used to. Hence the lack of posts of late. It’s only when you re-format you realise just how much shit you’ve got on your pc. It’s kinda nice to turn the pc on and it boots in seconds, but it’s also kinda scary to see a huge desktop with about 4 icons on it! And going to the my program list and seeing a dozen items when you’re used to 4 columns full of options is weird too. But things are getting back to normal now. The really vital stuff is thoroughly backed up and restored immediately, certain programs are re-installed and other free programs are dowloaded and installed. It’s only when you come to do something that takes second stage to getting the pc back to a useable state that you realise that you’ve missed the odd program or two.

Tonight for instance, been studying my poker bible, watching the poker zone, and just fancied a game or two on the pc. And what do you know?? Forgot to re-install my fave poker site! So back it went on and to the tables I navigate. Long story short: 8 games (2 played simultaneously) - 2 outside the money finishes - 2 x 3rd’s - 2 x 2nd’s - 2 x 1st’s. A nett gain of $49 or in proper money about £30 form just playing $3, $5 and 1 $10 tournaments. Few hours fun, few hours more poker experience logged and 30 sheets up to boot. Good start to the year. Oh and the two games I played simultaneously: 1st in a $5 tournament and 3rd in a $10 tournament. 2006… BRING IT ON!

Let’s hope it’s a happy and prosperous one all round. I’ve got a lucky feeling ;0)
