"The Downswings of Property and Poker"

I'm down next week.

Available for dinner around North London or Luton.

Sigh!

Just you or am I buying the clan dinner?

They are down too, so if Petra wants to meet up, don't know if that's piss with the kids at school etc. We'll discuss it when you ring me two weeks ago

Thanks mate, I've not forgot about that thing we were speaking about.  Has it launched yet?

[Karabiner]

Those are gorgeous photos and aren't the kids growing up apace.

I particularly like the detail in the black and white pics.

The first site is up but needs tweaking, not using it yet for orders just testing. I'm thinking of coming down to Southend for the GPS as long as work permits. Hope fully see you there.

Oh they are growing quickly and on Sunday Ivy is 3 and 10 days later Max turns 5. They are great kids though and excited about having a baby brother to fuss over although Ivy still wants to call him Rosie 😂.

I'm very close to Cockfosters and that restaurant you were talking about.

Just saying.

This time of year is always tinged with great happiness and sadness at the same time as on the positive side on the 17th March was the first time that myself and Petra went out on a date (courting if Tikay is reading this) and the 13th and 23rd see Ivy's and Max's respective Birthdays but the 19th is the anniversary of my Dad passing away.

Here he is

He was a great man and had time for everyone and was a very giving person and when his illness hit him hard he just toughed it out and said he didn't want any respite treatment just to prolong life for 18months and knew his time was his time.

I wish he was around to see the kids as he would have been an amazing grandad and there isn't a day that goes by without him in my thoughts and luckily we saved a few of his ashes to be scattered close to by where we are so that the kids have somewhere close they can come to remember him.  He always wanted to live by the sea but never got chance so I found him a lovely spot just by the seafront by the gardens and this beautiful Horse Chestnut tree is where he rests overlooking the estuary and the benches give the opportunity to just sit and have a chat to him on shared occasions.

RIP Dad.


This week has also seen further planning on the business and every week there is something new to think about in the schedule which makes life really exciting but I took a couple of days this week and played 1a of the GPS Southend, needed 1b too mind but today we go back with 71000 chips to 1600bb with about 70 left so I'm hoping for a bit of karma run good today to give me a chance of softening the blow of the chunk of money were outlaying over the coming months.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Sorry to hear about your sad loss Mike <3

That was a nice and timely double up as you say as I chipped down solidly in the first 2 levels of today so we're back in it a bit.....
