Only just found this thread.

My daughter also has occasional alopecia. It has never been really bad as yet, but she always has a small bald patch somewhereon her head.

I think I probably worry about it more than her.. when we first found it it was a pretty big deal for her but obviously I really played it down. Luckily her group of friends are all a good bunch who have been her mates all the way through school (she's 17 now). This meant that when she had her first really obvious patch, she simply told people what it was and it was treated as pretty unimportant because of how she approached it with people.

I appreciate your daughter is younger and will find it harder to understand but all I can suggest is trying to keep it as low key as possible, and making her realise it really isn't such a bad thing.

I know I think about it a lot and whenever she gets a new patch I have a secret cry but because I make light of it in front of her and her peer group don't take the piss at all, she just doesn't give it a second thought now.

Dunno if that's any help whatsoever but just wanted to add my personal experience as a dad x

fyp

sorry my bad. Ty

The live 2pm flights, anyone hazard a guesstimate at finishing time?

Also if you get through to day 2 for a min cash, does that money go into your DTD account that day or on the saturday?

Thanks in advance!

i do appreciate the ruling in that it could be a way of people angle shooting/gaining information, however, at the time i had acknowledged the raise, and was looking down at my chips to make it look like i was weighing it up (while secretly knowing i was going to see the flop for that price

Problem easily solved by calling without moody dwell?

Doubt anyone other than mods will remember, but it was because of this guy that I joined Blonde initially.

Blame him.

Could I come in as a late entry with a whinge?

Played Stoke GPS at the weekend.

Watched a guy limp in every hand on day two and calll every raise, regardless of 3/4/5 bet action before him. As each player made a raise he would pick up the correct chips to call before next to act had done anything, then if they raised again he simply picked up more chips.

Most of his calling range seemed to involve a duece, or at least cards lower than a  5.

Beat my pocket tens with Q6 off, after flopping two pair. Cracked aces with A2. Beat Dan Trett's pocket Queens with K7 off. These are just a few examples.

My exit hand involved him calling my raise with 53 off and flopping two pair, sending me home in 32nd place (thin brag inserted there obv)

His reward was fnishing second for 18K.

Mark now lives in my home town.

No intentions of posting details but it's my understanding he has had some quite big personal issues.  Certainly not making excuses for him but having been in a position myself where being brought low by life led to a stupid and un thought out move, I can at least feel some empathy for him.

I doubt he intentionally set out to grim anyone and I'm certainly sure a thread like this will not help his mental state at all.

Was great having u doin updates great to read as always Caroline Smiley

Likewise.


Blondes .. Rich Blacklock on 100K, Sam Trickett on 130K, Matt Harris on 150K, Ross Patman 190K.

David Amos on 151K. Every time I update he final tables cashes. Surely this is worth a percentage for me?!

It's 50/50 whether I final table now.

Can you put a price on my eternal appreciation? Or that USB lead you stole from me? Smiley

The latter one - about £1.59 on Amazon.

The first one - priceless.



Apologies! I also stole an electronic cig! Well, a mate plugged it in and then forgot to get it once his aces were cracked, I did feel his pain

David I'll bring USB to the GP if that's okay?

Daniel has played so well and also ran like Usain on an angel powered treadmill. He takes home a massive £36,000, in time to treat himself to an early birthday present as he's 22 on Wednesday.


DTD reg James Raggy Clarke gets a very nice £21,000 for second place, well played to both, and course to all of the final table players.

Thank you all for your comments and interaction over the past few days, it's been a blast for me as usual and from the messages I've had, everyone else seems to have enjoyed it as well.

See you all again soon!
