It was great to meet you Caroline.  You certainly brightened up an end to a long day.  Hopefully Suz will let you come to another APAT event.   ;D

A Truly great read Leigh. It appears this blog is about quality not quantity... any chance we could have both?

The spritzers helped as well! The discussions in the Alea are best left unrecorded, though several young men breathed a sigh of relief when we left. It was a surreal night one way and another - Caroline isn"t encumbered with the self-imposed filtering that hampers the rest of us.

Mmm - not sure about the life coaching! Apparently relationships have a finite duration and Mr D and I are on borrowed time. One year to go before one of us gets our freedom!!! ::)

On a separate note I"m gutted for Suze who put in a sterling performance and for Steve who was so nearly there ...well played Grant, was good to get to know you a bit better!!!

LMAO. Are you sure Tighty isn"t a GEEK?  ???
Suz did  "warn" me about her sister !! Sounds like she was quite reserved.
Seems like it all went swimmingly.  ::)
Great report Leigh just wish I wasn"t stuck in Goodwood all week.  :(

Good write up Leigh.

Looking forward to returning to APAT now at DTD and in Cork.

Seems ages since Newcastle

Still trying to think of something amusing to write in this bit.

Just read an interview with Eric Cantona talking about Paul Scholes.

"I knew Paul when he was young," said Cantona. "He started here with us. He has been a great player. He could play anywhere, midfield, up front, he could score goals, make them, defend, tackle. He could do anything."


Tackle ?  Who"s he kidding ?


Scholesy is an absolute legend and one of the best and most consistent players I have ever had the pleasure to have watched at Old Trafford, but tackling was really not one of his strong points.

His strongest point was the two footed flying leg breaker!

This isn"t neccessarily the opinion of MY WIFE who loves Scholesy.
