[Will next door be doing anything this summer around the WSOP?]

Haven't been over for nearly 3 years, but need to make a trip out before 2028 to keep my 'comp' status alive with MLife.

Will next door be doing anything this summer around the WSOP?

Will likely only pop over for a week, but will probably plan it around something in the WSOP as I'm in Cardiff when the UFC card is on.

Hi Mark.

I retired last May so I've no idea what Sky Poker's Vegas plans are this year. They still invite me to SPT's which is very kind of them, so if I get another invite in the near future (if indeed SPT's continue) I'll ask.

I plan to go across though, hopefully the same sort of thing as last year, 3 or 4 weeks whilst the various Omaha stuff is on, mainly Big O & a bit of Mixed Game stuff, which I've become partial to, especially 2-7 Triple Draw & the like.

I'd book it now if I could, but it depends when my favoured stuff will be running. Last year they front-loaded the Series with all the Big O & Omaha Mix stuff & the other Rooms all followed suit, so it was perfect for me, & I'm hoping very much they do the same this year. I have no interest in playing any NLH over there (maybe a Seniors or two but that's it) as I'm completely shite at NLH & it does not give me the buzz & zing that the Big O & Mixed Game stuff does.

All health permitting, obv, but at the mo I seem to be in acceptable if not decent nick.

How are you coping these days?

I did recall you'd finally taken a well overdue foot off the gas and moved onto the golf tour, but as you'd been there so long wasn't sure if they'd have you helping unofficially.

I couldn't do that long now, and the last time we went after dad passed I was done in after two weeks, and didn't even drink.

I've got some rooms booked on random dates in June/July, but will obv cancel/rebook if anything crops up that takes my fancy.

Can't remember the last time I played, but would likely be dipping into the dark arts if I did play anything. At least I've got a built-in excuse when I get rinsed in those, as I've only been playing 5 minutes

Not long now, and you're probably racking up some serious miles on the course which will keep you in good nick for some traipsing around Vegas come June!

Must be up to about 30 MRIs now, and they've still not found a brain, but all good other than that!

I did reply to your kind message, once I realised that I had been logged out after not being on for a period of time, I guess

Cheers the hotel has rescinded the ticket

If they had not, is there any chance the parking company would ever pursue it beyond a few letters?

I've not had one I had to pay since I lived in London, but for the price, I've always been in the pay and forget about it camp.

Obv makes me part of the problem, rather than the solution, though. I didn't have the patience to be worrying about going back & forward with some parking firm

Who the hell has 100 bottles of perfume?

Mr Stinky?

Call me Pepé Le Pew

must have been manky147 in a past life

Indeed I was... One of the old Laddies players used to call me that when we played there!

My old man (Micky) was 'minky'

[fragrance channels]

Wait a minute.

You Tube fragrance channels are a thing?

And you WATCH them?

Say it ain't so.

Quite a big thing, too.

Not so much anymore, but I still dip in and out occasionally.

It was the rona times, wasn't much else to do apart from the tubes

[I've got about 100 bottles of fragrance to do the same with]

Hey blondites,have been sorting through my 7" singles and i have 5 boxes (approx 2500) that i no longer have room for.

Mainly Pop from 1960s-1980s in varying degrees of quality , mostly VG.

If you fancy selling them on Ebay or if any of you have children or Grandchildren who are getting into vinyl and would like to give them a boost, hit me up.

No charge although you will have to collect NR19

Merry Christmas

Boo

Surely worth keeping hold of them and finding some form of music shop that buys/sells vinyl?

Get a few quid in the sky for a nice summer jaunt somewhere if nothing else?

I've got about 100 bottles of fragrance to do the same with, but posting/packing stuff is so much agg for me. I think I'm going to get my friends' son to sell them for me, and we'll just carve up once they're gone

Happy Xmas, mate!

Whoa there, hold up.

You have 100 (ONE HUNDRED) bottles of fragrance? Who the hell has 100 bottles of perfume?

There has to be some moody activity going off there.

Explain.

Probably closer to two than one, having a guess

I have about 30 that I use through the year, and ~50 in a drawer.

Then I have a big plastic tub that I've been intending to sell for a couple years.

Boredom during the rona started it, I'd only ever had 3-4 different at a time over the last 25 years.

I got into a few fragrance channels on YouTube, started buying a few different ones and then really got into it by 2021!

Got a shop thats gonna take my duplicate LPs,just thought id offer the singles on here before selling them.

Ahh, gotcha. Very generous of you, boo

Only reason it lasted 6 was he managed to run for 4.

Trained for a fight, when he should have trained for a marathon.

Not going to be having much of an Xmas dinner after his surgery, anyway

I've been collared a few times at restaurants where they obviously 'sell' the parking rights to a 3rd party company and you're supposed to 'validate' at the restaurant, but I wasn't made aware of this when entering.

Got them cancelled easily enough with a phone call, as the staff should have told me to enter my reg before being seated.

I'd call the hotel to try speaking with someone and plead ignorance. Hopefully they'll let you pay for the parking retrospectively if you butter them up a bit on the phone.

Oh my. Happy 21st birthday Superman. 😍🎂🎊

Surely any Joshua bet, particularly ‘early’, is good against Jack Paul? This is like Mayweather vs McGregor, no?

Mayweather basically held McGregor up, so you're betting on how long Joshua does the same.

Excellent post Mr Phil. Thank you.

Agree with Red, much appreciated.

Will be useful over Xmas when I no doubt run into someone bloviating about this with no real knowledge beyond what they've seen on GMTV or GB News

Belter of a room!

Once you get going, will be 2028 before you emerge
