Big Thanks
« on: August 28, 2007, 18:41:00 PM »
I would like to thank the cardroom staff at G Luton for the way they welcomed APAT, 300 of our members and many of our non playing friends to their Casino over the weekend.  The dealing team were faultless and are a credit to Grosvenor, as are the management team at Luton. 

Similarly, thanks to Mike and Jonathan who represented our Season Two sponsor Blue Square at the event, for their vote of confidence in APAT.

The APAT team put in an outstanding effort this weekend, but in addition to Richard and Tony, I would like to especially thank Ian "HaworthBantam" Burnett who worked his socks off to lead the live update effort from the floor.  Thanks to the many others who chipped in also, but Ian was a real trooper.

Finally, a big thanks to our members.  The friendly competitive spirit generated at APAT events is unique in my experience.  I lost count of the number of players who came up to the team and I after their exit and said what a great time they"d had.  It"s a really good feeling to continually get that sort of feedback.  Its win win all around and long may it continue.

Until the next one....

Cheers,

Des.

The Big Thanks is to the APAt team. To organise an event of this magnitude with a handfull of people was awesome. Of course the venue makes a difference and the dealers were all full of fun and chat (but in the right doses) it does them extreme credit. It is without doubt due, in no small measures, to the whole APAt admin team that these events are soooo good.

Unfortunately it would have been nice if someone grabbed the mike and made a thank you speech on the day (are we all that shy,) so for now take a virtual round of applause for a great week end

I"d like to say thanks to all involved, without them the events couldn"t take place, but the APAT team are exceptional, thanks so much for everything you do.  It was a fantastic event again  :)

Looking forward to the next event......

Hope to see you all soon

I"d like to echo the thanks and comments made by Gerard, Leigh and Caz.

I had a lot of respect for Des, Rich and Tikay and the work they put in to these events.

Having helped out a little, my respect has bumped up a notch.
