Title: dtd on verge of closing down
Post by: kosh74 on June 18, 2009, 14:36:34 PM

  Was reading this months InsidePoker (July) when i came across an article on the newsround page. The heading, DUSK TILL DAWN ON VERGE OF CLOSING ?. As i read on that the inability to claim back vat on 3.4m refurbishment, i could only think about WCOAP being held later this year. Have the ladies and gentlemen who work hard behind the scenes of the APTa been contacted about this , is there another venue it can be heald at .
 
 kev , day 1b WCOAP i pray.

In all seriousness, it was a close call.

Cashflow was tight, but then it was confirmed who would be attending the APAT event in August and the additional bar revenue will sort out the situation.   ;)
