Well, We are at the venue, AND i have made an amazing discovery overnight ...
The "DO NOT DISTURB" sign is no longer a mystery to me ... I now know its exact meaning...
"Dont come into the room to make the beds or change the towels, but DO use the engine off a russian fighter jet as a hoover and leave it running outside the door for an hour, oh and bring your 4 year old son to work and have him scream blue murder at silly O'clock in the morning right outside the door, and for good measure, just as he is having his loudest tantrum of the year, please feel free to shout at him in an eastern european language TWICE AS LOUD AS THE HOOVER !"
And its groundhog day .... another day 1 .... lots more players all dreaming of the big score ... all boring the life out of anyone within earshot of this bad beat, that big coup, last years comp etc etc etc ...
And after all that ... Welcome to day 1B. I will smile at the right people and look interested in their tales, but secretly, hidden deep inside, i want to kill them.
