Vegas & The Aftermath - Diary

[DingleBelle]

Who on earth would but the peas in the middle? What kind of a lunatic thinks like that?

I can live with the peas, but it's a basic rule of eating - & life - that peas belong on the side of the plate, never the centre.

Peas were sent by the devil to poison us all

As a lot of us do, we log on with some anticipation, first looking at how many pages this epic tome has grown to, and then click to see if the Godfather of Poker
has been at work. Well this morning I want to know if this is a Covid-19 record, as 13 other like minnded soles were sat around the country waiting for the next eagerly awaited post.............

Tikay is taking this isolation for vulnerable persons to the extremem, and has been isolating from his diary, too

He still posts over the road; I was talking to him earlier.

Need more postage here though, but UKOPS starts on Friday (a week later than it should have) so we probably won't be getting a quick return.

Should do a UKOPS diary obv, so maybe one extra person might play.

That's good, and glad to hear he's still keeping busy.

I need him to get back in his thread, so I can get his slate on the up, for my Vegas 2021 thrift club.

Jeez, what a year. Hope you are all coping well.

The novelty of queuing for food at supermarkets in March, & getting used to wearing a mask.

Then they said it was all over. Get out people, it’s over. Here’s a £10 discount for restaurant meals, go enjoy yourselves.

Oops, Wave 2 is here, stay at home.

The vaccine arrived, everything will be OK people.  

Oh wait, COVID variants have polled up out of the blue, welcome to Wave 3.

It’s never going to go away in my lifetime.

Life’s OK though, except that I can’t see Gill at the moment, it’s too risky & probably illegal.

Work keeps me pleasantly occupied. I don’t do much but it takes me all day to do it.

There’s an old boy who posts Next Door & he’s completely out of touch. Nobody ever replies to him. No disrespect to the fella, he’s lovely, but just has little of interest to say to the wider world. And I sort of feel I might be like him now. Not that it bothers me, I’m happy in my own little world.

Missing Vegas was a blow. And it was not suddenly cancelled, it just sort of slowly became inevitable.

It’s OK, but there’s an advert on TV which uses the WSOP Intro Music. Sitting down to play a WSOP was the best thing ever & I miss it very much. And every time that chuffing advert comes on it reminds me.

Here’s the ad…..






And here’s the real thing, which was played at the start of every WSOP event. Used to make me quite emosh actually.

First job I do every day is to check Trump’s Tweets. Usually including UPPER CASE & lots of !!!!. The blokes a complete nutjob, & a dreadful person to boot. I try very hard not to hate anyone these days, but it’s hard work with him.

This is Kayleigh Mcenany, the White House Press secretary. She’s amazing to watch when in action. Not sure I’ve ever seen a woman who could so dominate a room full of hard bitten press reporters. I could watch her all day. It’s just a shame that every time her lips move she lies.
