El Blondie is out.

Simon "aces" Trumper is on fire and close to the chip lead.

Go on Simon.

Skjervold is OUT, but he told me he had bought 20% in "some English guy" who was close to chiplead, so I wonder if he has actually bought himself a share of Mr. Trumper..? Anyone know?

Lots of "faces" are prominent, go on my cockers !

Is this one the "true" championship Davey ?

 

[sig75]

Have spoken to Mr. Skjervold, he has 20% in Simon, go "Aces", go go GOOOO!!!
