Was a wee bit late to join the rebuy tonight on WH. So I decided to play a couple of SNG"s - I played 3 $5 30 players thingys.

Game 1 - KK << AA
Game 2 - 10 10 << AA
Game 3 - QQ << AA

Remember that in the league game I ran into them twice in the same game with high pairs (OK to me a 10 is high)

All poker sites closed for the night as I seek solace in my hour of pain

Tomorrow night I am off to see The Furey Brothers and Davey Arthur in concert. Now I remember these when they were starting out in the 70's so they must be in their 60's at least. I remember well that Finbar Furey had a wind instrument made out of the tubular leg of a chair, but their music was brilliant. Sadly I believe that Finbar no longer plays with them , we shall see if the gloss has worn off a bit.

An example of the music, nice relaxing evening ahead, not every ones taste but whatever...

Back from the little soiree with the Furey brothers, if I closed my eyes it could have been 40 years ago the music has not changed (nor have the jokes in between songs   ).

Today is Friday so it"s the aquarium for me I think (for a change) so that"s tonight beer intake taken care of.

Tomorrow is a rugby day with all teams taking part and it is Patrick"s Day, so that"s Saturday"s beer intake taken care of.

Sunday will be recovery day - so in the interest of that age old remedy for a hangover, that"s Sunday"s beer intake taken care of as well.

Priceless....

Happy weekend everyone.....

Oh and the aquarium....

Went aggressive and loved it - cracked AA with 54 - hit a flush against Charlie with - then the sword of damaclese hit me when I shove 5 handed with K Q and ran into A K -- I loved it it was a great night

Just to show you how strongly I fancy them, let"s make it a fiver

Italy 14 Scotland 27 - Nice to win one

Hmm shaky may have to reappraise this scoreline they are both making schoolboy mistakes......

[duke3016]

I expected more from Scotland today, a very poor game with a win for the team that most wanted it.

Raining in Cardiff, why have a roof and not use it - The French have insisted that the roof remain open, that baffles me......

OK settling down for the next match. Beer tasting a wee bit too good (maybe that"s expectation for the main event). Fancy Wales to do this and I feel this game will be won at the front 5 and with fast, clean ball the Welsh backs should cause havoc.....

[duke3016]

Shocking, just shocking, Ireland were steamrolled, outplayed and were really not at the races at all.

WP England

WD Wales

Now to dull the disappointment...

Received the new works phone today - it"s a redberry bend (or summat like that)  

I hate it already
