It's a class joint, a cut above most Vegas establishments, but it always looks like it must be a struggle to pay the overheads. Very nice indeed.

I seem to recall it was 20 or 25 minutes in a cab. Way out of town, 15 or 20 miles as I recall, maybe a tad less. Worth a look though.

Shocked to learn that Eddie Stobart died today.

The business was started by his Dad - also Eddie - a long way back, & Eddie Junior handed over the reins to one of his brothers, William, a few years ago.

I don't think he'd been ill, he just fell ill a day or two ago if I understand it correctly.

The shocker was his age - 56.

That, being purely selfish, is a right shocker.

RIP Mr Stobart.

Thank you!

How could Thewy wake up with Aces there? It's not possible.

The Tourney was a cracker, I loved every minute of it.

Well done/very unlucky to Beaneh, who ran terribly Heads Up, but 2nd place & some £2,600 is some consolation I guess. The winner, "Solack", was due one of these, & I thought once it got three-handed, with GliterBabe in the mix, it was always going to be down to run good.

Good result for me, too - some weeks ago, in a regular Managememt Mtg, I was casually handed the task of ensuring it reached (for the first time) it's cap of 60. I got there with about 5 minutes to spare.

A good night.

Tomorrow, it's back in the trenches, & first I have to go home & sort out a bunch of stuff.

PS - You have PM.

Hi Keith,

As I replied to you & others on Wednesday, "Might have a day off on Friday &/or Saturday, & have a monsta catch up".

100% not forgotten, it won't be swerved, I just have a lot of stuff going off right now, personal & business, & I want to be able to reply properly on the whole debate, which will take an hour or two.

Bear with me, please.

PS - Today's "day off" never materialised, as some quite time precious stuff - "work" - is going off next door which I need to handle today.

Thanks.

If you want to ring me & chat it through, feel free.
