The Caledonian? Very nice.

Has the bottom pic been reversed, like a mirror image?

I see they even have left-handed tea-cups.

St. Pancras?

Oh and happy birthday Gill.

St. Pancras?

The Renaissance at St Pancras. Wife and I stayed there over the Easter weekend. Meals at the Gilbert Scott restaurant were superb.

Before I do the Stakers Update, a quick shout out to Grant, aka Longines.

I was shocked to hear earlier this week that he has joined Team Angioplasty.

He's still in hospital if I have read the coup correctly.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery mate.

Many thanks Mr T and everyone else, I'm touched. Went to bed Sat night and thought I'd pulled a muscle, was trying to stretch it out when Mrs Long suggested a trip to A&E may be required. Blood tests confirmed a mild and had the Angio yesterday.

Apparently it's a borderline case between stents and a bypass, decision to be made shortly.

On #InternationalNursesDay I have to say they are all truly fantastic, the level of care shown has been humbling.

Get well soon. Xx

Gill's Birthday today, so we are celebrating with afternoon tea, like what posh people have.

Gorgeous pictures. Tony you look like the cat that got the cream.  Saying that...Gill definitely went to specsavers. 

Happy Birthday.

Looking good for a man that's been ill Tony. Very Geoff Boycott in that hat.

Could I please have £150 of the Vegas stake  for my favourite sweat of the year?

If I'm honest, I'm not entirely sure what that means.

I think it suggests I'm pretty fly for a white guy. Am I right?

I'll get up to date tomorrow morning with replies & "thank you's" for new stakers on the Team, but for now, the following are booked since we last did an Update;

EvilPie - 2%

Karabiner - 1%

Plump Percy - 1%

Phil £150


Will put some flesh on the bones tomorrow, bit busy today.

Doggy bag full of cream cakes, obv.

So Geo The Sarge was correct - it was the Renaissance Hotel, St Pancras Station.  Old Karabiner was near enough - he said "St Pancras" - & Longines is excused as he is unwell.

But we are not done yet.

Whilst Gill & I were sat there, waiting for our tea like what posh people have, who should happen to stroll by? Of all the gin joints in all the world......


And he has lost SO much weight I was initially unsure if he was very unwell or in rude health.

Don't think I've ever seen him looking so well. He told me he has lost 4 stone. He looked great I thought, especially facially. Well done Keith, great work.

Mr Camel was breaking his journey south en route to Brighton for today's Sky Bet Championship celebration party. That boy loves Sky Bet.
