Title: Scottish weekend trip to DTD Post by: Apothecary on January 22, 2008, 11:16:44 AM Hi All,
Have just spent the most fantastic weekend at dtd, and I am going to organise a coach trip weekend from Scotland to DTD. Will organise Hotel, Coach etc and am going to try to get good price as a block booking, this will be at cost price, and is open to any interested person's who would maybe otherwise not be able to go. I am thinking about possible date of the 8th to 11th May 2008, but this depends on availability of coaches, hotels and of course dtd. Please let me know who's interested in this idea. Be lucky Terry Title: Re: Scottish weekend trip to DTD Post by: boldie on January 22, 2008, 11:21:29 AM I'm in Cuba that week..but will be thinking of you and pretending to be jealous :)

Title: Re: Scottish weekend trip to DTD Post by: Apothecary on January 25, 2008, 07:12:07 PM Hi All,
Just a quick update, have been busy doing my VAT this week, but on Monday it's full steam ahead with plane for our trip. I have been in touch with Simon Trumper, and the weekend is planed for the 8th to 11th may, this is a good weekend for the club, so keep that date in your diary, if you plan on joining us. I am also looking to see if we can maybe (hopefully get some sponsorship) to either help to wards the costs of travel or prize money. Any ideas please let me know, Anyway will keep you all informed as and when. Thanks for the support. Terry Title: Re: Scottish weekend trip to DTD Post by: Apothecary on February 16, 2008, 12:19:37 AM hi all
The details of the weekend at DTD are available on the live poker thread. cheers Terry Title: Re: Scottish weekend trip to DTD Post by: tikay on February 16, 2008, 04:50:32 PM Terry - good luck with this! Are Englander's allowed to be there, too? Title: Re: Scottish weekend trip to DTD Post by: Apothecary on February 18, 2008, 11:55:46 PM Thanks Tikay,
I hope Englanders are allowed otherwise I won't be able to go :) Yes of course there, are we have been asked if we can pick some lads up at Newcastle so the bus might not be quite full of Scots, and four lassies who work for us want to come with us to go shopping in Nottingham. This is going to be great fun I hope, and it will be nice to return to dtd we were made so welcome. A couple who play on sky have booked to come I hope you will be there it will be good to see you. Do you think we could get some kind of trophy. that would make it more interesting, let me know your thoughts please. Cheers Terry Title: Re: Scottish weekend trip to DTD Post by: tikay on February 19, 2008, 07:03:33 PM Thanks Tikay, I hope Englanders are allowed otherwise I won't be able to go :) Yes of course there, are we have been asked if we can pick some lads up at Newcastle so the bus might not be quite full of Scots, and four lassies who work for us want to come with us to go shopping in Nottingham.
