Kevin the bouncer that always used to threaten everyone at gala notts lol

Haha I remember him dealing himself a bad beat vs me with 11 or so left in a tournament and then launched the deck across the room. I thought I was next

Was he the guy that had that dodgy boozer on the A46 between Nottingham & Leicester?

He was bothered by the dodgy goings-on & poor tourney organisation @ Gala Notts, so organised a private game in the boozer, & got Taffy to run it.

You can't make this stuff up, eh?

No that was someone else Tony. Mick McCool was involved in that scheme and they actually approached me with an offer to be the TD.

I think the Kev they are talking about is Kev Ward who is actually terrific company and has a great dry sense of humour, although he can get slightly emotional when suffering bad beats.

He's a very very hard man but I've never seen him lay a finger on anyone in the twenty-odd years that I've known him. Loves a growl though.

Perfectly described Ralph. I think Kev would rank in the top 3 of people you've ever known, who you'd least like to get in a fight with. If you'd not met him before and just outdrawn him, (and, God forbid, apologised) then you would have rather been caught stealing Mike Tyson's tiger by the man himself.

He did have, as you described, a very dry sense of humour and normally I'd run a mile to get away from a bad-beat story, but he delivered them in such a tired, Les Dawson style world-weariness that I remember crying with laughter every time.

Still have them at WSOP. They are a bit of an arse organisation wise and not sure they really are that popular, you need a field of some size to make them work.

Evilpie Matt.

I miss him. he was blonde's voice of reason. Why doesn't he post any more?

Did Ronnie eat him, Did something put his nose out of joint, did he just outgrow us and move on.....?

It's the not knowing that I can't handle.

We exchanged PM's & Texts last week, & I imagine Methuselah keeps in touch, too.

Reading between the lines, I got the impression he was too busy shagging to bother about Posting on blonde. (Matt, not Methuselah).  

As to "blonde's voice of reason", have you seen the the signature of our resident veteran, Nirvana?


"It's Tighty's thing so let him do as he pleases rather than interfere like a bunch of moronic fuckwits" E. Pie

Voice of reason indeed.

Hi Tom, Tikay, Tighty

Ralph has just text to let me know that I've finally achieved my life's ambition and been included in the "Whatever happened to" thread.

Thank you all very much for your concern but I can assure you that all is well in my happy little world (and Ronnie's too).

Alien huskies are definitely an issue these days but also I've got a lot on at work so really don't have time to get involved.

I still lurk often and stay in touch with quite a few blondes. Should hopefully be having a curry with Ralph in the near future and I'll also be visiting Tikay soon with big Ron to do a bit of debt collecting.

Hopefully see you all soon.

Saw him a couple of weeks ago. He's fine. Plays cash in Milton Keynes. Grinds a bit online too, I think.
