The first video I ever took was of the Bellagio Fountains dancing to the tune. It was marvellous, i was in tears.

Wow 3p value Marathon. Thats an old selection box. Apparently there was a great shortage of selection boxes this year. All stuck on containers waiting to get into Felixstowe.

Great to have you back Tony - I always enjoy your posts
Never knew you were an expert on lip-pursing and mouth-angling - it’s remarkable how one becomes magnetised to these quirks... Like if someone has an off-centre eye...

Season Greeting to you all,
It's been great reading the latest raft of posts from the "old fella", and I don't know why, but I looked at his Wiki page, and I have to say what great read of fiction it is; so do
we know who's responsible for this?:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Kendall_(poker_player
)
If you haven't seen it then enjoy.

The only inaccuracy I can see is that they missed the bit where he had insisted that Sarah Stirk should appear with him in the golf commentaries. When they got her in for an audition they realised that she was far superior to Mr Kendall, and he lost the gig. The rage was picked up on earthquake monitors 50 miles away from Sky Sports H Q. Think it still drives his bitterness about her to this day TBH.
His walls are now adorned with posters of Michael O'Leary, but legend has it there are some rare early Sarah Stirk prints behind them.

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

Hi Shaz,
Not sure I've ever driven past Bellagio when they were not three deep on the railings watching the fountain show. It's amazingly endearing - it's been going for a whopping 32 years.
A few miles along the strip is another miracle of hype - The Welcome to Vegas sign. 15 years ago we would just poll up & take a few photos. Now, there's organised queue lines & pro photographers ripping everyone off.
I'd think the two most famous signs in the entire world are the Vegas Welcome sign & the Hollywood thing. Are there are other more famous signs globally? I can't think of any.
Meanwhile, if we head in the other direction, Vegas has a new "iconic" attraction - the Vegas Arch. It's down by the Strat, which is the street-cred sexy new name for the oh-so-dated Stratosphere. I'm not really sure what to make of it, but if we ever find ourselves in Vegas again, we'll have to go take a shufty.

Have to say, for my entire life, notwithstanding how tastes & moods change, the Mars Bar has been the Rolls Royce of chocolate.
As a little boy of primary school age, maybe slightly less, I was obsessed with being rich enough when I grew up to buy a whole "outer" of Mars Bars & eat one every day of my life. That really was the height of my ambitions at the time.

Thank you.
And oh dear, I've just realised how accurate you are. I've already mentioned my lip fixation with Laura Kuenssberg & Ms Patel, & I've suddenly realised there's another. Gill & I were having Afternoon Tea at The Wolseley on Piccadilly this time last year & suddenly realised we were seated smack bang next to Tracy Emin. And I know nothing & care even less about her "art", but I can't stop staring at her, & watching all her TV appearances. And of course she has that strangely interesting sort of wonky mouth.
Must stress I'm not mocking them - quite the opposite - nor am I being negative in any way. I just can't help being fascinated by it.

Hi Dave,
Incred.
I wish I knew who does this - it's clearly too well-written to be me, & it is beautifully put together. I can only think of 2 people who a) know we well enough & b) write that well, & both are blondes. Sky Bet have put Tighty in at 1/4. He's a very busy man, so I'd not bet on it, but it's possible I suppose. There ought to be a way of finding out, & there probably is, but I cba really. It's certainly more interesting than my real life.
I do hope you & Sue are both well, & I'm very touched by the kind works you & many others posted on today's Results Thread Next Door.
xx to you both in 2021, & if a miracle occurs, see you in Vegas again.

Stop it David.
I made a lifestyle decision a while back to go all Zen & not think any mean thoughts. However, no matter how hard I try, Miss Stirk still makes me want to smash the TV set to pieces. Most of Sky Sports Golf coverage is, as you know, "fill", & when she comes her banality abso drives me nuts with her drony high pitched voice. There are plenty of excellent female golf presenters & pundits, but I'm sorry to say she's not one of them.
She lobs up THE most ridic questions. She's like the Derek Thompson of Golf.
"So Tiger, you shot 17 under to win the Masters by 23 shots. Did that feel good?"
Big well done to you David on your excellent results Next Door, especially the Sunday Major. Now go win the just announced £100,000 SPT Online at at the of January.
