stop/start

Right then where are we? Oh yes, iv played about 4 tournies in the last 3 weeks, sick volume aye?? Been a bit of a problem with the stable over the past couple of weeks which has prevented us all from grinding. Don't really want to go into the specifics, but i think we are just about sorted now and we're all about ready to go again. We had a bit of a stable meeting with our two backers over dinner (well, we went to nando's at 7.30 and cheeky duck at midnight with about 6 pints inbetween) and we went over a few things to do with the stable. It's the first time Jerry and Wrighty (our backers) have really staked people in great depth, certainly not to the extent where probably $15k plus of their money is spread out through our accounts. So i guess there's always going to be a bit of uncertainty when we are still pretty young in the staking process. They are approaching the staking deal for us as quite a long term thing, and want us to get our rolls up north of $20k and be able to get us playing mid-high stakes MTT's and crushing them like they do. Obviously its a bloody long process if your as lazy as i am, but its something quite exciting to think/dream about. This is another thing that should inspire me to grind, will probably work [ ] Oh yer, and the fact that i wouldnt mind a few quid right about now.

In other news, i mentioned a while ago that we, The Walkers Sensensations, had an interview to go on the BBC t.v show Eggheads. We didnt hear anything back for a while, and after a couple of weeks we had pretty much given up hope of getting on the show. Until out of the blue we recieved a phone call from one of the lasses at the show saying we were on the shortlist, and that there is a fairly decent chance we'll get to test our brains against the best!! So thats pretty exciting, quietly confident of victory of course, but why wouldnt I be when you look at the calibur and shear class running through our team. In some more other news, sadly, Mark "spoona" Brewis has left his position as card room manager of circus in pursuit of a "proper carear". Why he wouldnt want to spend his life talking to Flett, Rogertard and I-Call i have no idea but hey-ho. Best of luck to him, he will be massivly missed as a boss and as a friend. And i will massivly miss his beard too. Also, speaking of hair, iv decided to shave my hair quite short, this is definatly to do with fashion, and nothing to do with the fact i cant be arsed to go to the barbers below my flat and let them do it. Also, with the money saved, i can buy a subway.

Thanks for reading
