I keep looking at the vote on the club name, looks like nearly everyone thinks "tilt" should be "till" or "til" and the "from" should be dropped, Nick won't be happy, he thought the "tilt" was a nice poker related term into the club's name. At 1pm tomorrow the thread will have been on 48hrs, so we'll know then.

My horse pulled up today in the 3.40pm at Fontwell, when I thought is was an absolute cert to win. Tony Mccoy, the champion jockey, was riding it and he said after the race that "I have a problem horse". ie. it doesn't like racing. Typical, as well as my bet of £6k, a number of people had rung me up for a tip and I've been getting abusive texts since the race finished. Apparently Barry "from Sheffield" Neville backed it pretty big aswell AND didn't even know it was my horse before he put the bet on........he just noticed that it had been heavily backed for 11-1 into 6-1, unfortunatley for Barry this was due to me putting 6 bets of £1k in this morning with 6 different bookies.........sorry Barry, you should have called me.

I emailed everyone with their task list from the project plan last night, Nowab was straight on the case today, visiting a web site designer. He' gets a 10 for enthusiam but I can't get any peace, he's either on my mobile, home phone, email or messenger, he's got me cornered! Just joking, Chubbs, if you can convert the energy into results the sky is the limit.

Our site will allow people to join the club online and we hope it will be up by the end of January. We need these memberships to prove demand to the Magistates court for our gaming licence. Hopefully, the membership fees won't put too many people off, we'll see.

I'm going to the premises tomorrow and taking a few photos - I'll put them up on this thread. You'll really be able to appreciate the potential of the club when you see them, although most of the inside will actually get ripped out in the refurb.
