blondepoker.com Team Event: Day 1 - Interactive

! I think this is the only place I've been to where the bag reclaim doesn't have a travallater. Instead, they just push it out onto some metal cylinders that roll (well, sort of) the bag down. Imagine if they'd done that on the Generation Game!

dont go to Macau snoops......they just sling the bags into the middle of the floor and let the crowds fight for them.

Crikey, okay, I confess, it wasn't as bad as that. Is it a case of whoever fights hardest wins? One thing I've never understood about baggage reclaim is why can't people just hang around there and nick bags as they come in? Surely it's a robber's haven?

It's because the baggage handlers have already helped themselves to anything valuable.

this week I shall be adopting the shape of a potato and bringing you all the latest action from our lovable neighbours here in Ireland

 

Ah Begorrah, us cuddly little paddies!! Shall I do ya a jig?  

-------------------

In other news, I really think anyone who believes Gary DOESN'T bear a strong resemblence to McLovin should be put down for general idiocy and incompetence. Knowing a sure fire way to tilt him is teh awesomeness.  

Good luck with the updates - I'm sure you'll do a good job. My tip for the overall is Tony Baitson; Wes Farrell; Fergus and no.4 (whom I have forgotten). Best of luck and I hope you all have a good weekend.

Quote from McLovin: "That Lloyd is really sticking his neck out there and going for the team that won it last year. He's the type of fella that would tip Tiger Woods to win the Masters."

Not tipping Woods for a major would be plain silly. I'm happy to play it safe tyvm.

I searched for Boring Bets and found this.  Are you, like the Macquarie Bank, also investing in airport parking lots, de-icing services for hangar rentals and percentages of UK toll zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Well, if I wasn't before - I am now.

Seeing that the tournament has yet to commence, I can only offer you a McLovin update. At the moment, McLovin is currently enjoying a sticky toffee pudding after dipping his McLovin paws into a rather sumptuous beef lasagne. Stay tuned for more McLovin updates as I receive them.

can i get a count on ivor biggun please

It's been a rocky start so far with lack of internet to be had in the Woodlands unless you have the name "Neil Kelly" or "Sideshow Bob". As you know neither bob or kelly fits into either of our names and has left us dis-connected from internet activity for the last 30 mins since we've been here. To my amusement I have just managed to get online despite my mentor sir snoops trying from each corner of the room, the car park and I think hes heading to level 5 now in a "lack of mobile signal-esque" attempt to get connected.

In somewhat or a role reversal to last night when I was internet-less and left to watch Eastenders while Snoppy downloaded 3 hour WWE PPV tapes in seconds. the shoe is very much on the other foot. It's safe to say I really am (dont even think about saying mc) loving it.
