Oh....and as I obviously misunderstood re-our conversation at Coventry about this event Des, my apologies if I caused any offence with any posts I made on here regarding this event. It was all said tongue-in-cheek, though as I have said elsewhere today, things written down can"t always convey the context in which they are meant.

The Three Pigeons, Witney (home of the hardest pub game in the country  :o), would like to take part please.

We currently have three part-time APAT"ers and several who keep threatening to come to an APAT tournament... this would be the perfect introduction for them.

If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much space.

Strange one this as probably most of the Forum teams will play their home games in Pubs and Clubs, as such wont you just get the same teams as in the Forum Champs? See Brians post above. If that is okay and is the case I would like to nominate "The Pavilion" home of Barnoldswick cricket club and the venue for LBPNs games.  :)

The LPM (current Team champions, don"t you know) are primarily home game based.

We do have members who play pub poker but given that we cover ALL of London...it"d be hard to pick ONE pub.

Not entirely, the Three Pigeons does not currently have a forum, therefore we did not take part in the Forum Champs.  :D

This is the "Pub Poker Championships" and we play poker in a pub, as do the SSPC and many others.

It is the only pub I personally play poker in although some of the BCPC play in others and may therefore wish to enter a team from those instead.
