Dumpster Fresh Diets

Whoa there Lesley, down Shep. It has been 8 days since an update, poor form from me. In mitigation its been a downer of a week again. The mother-in-law is back in hospital but will hopefully be fit enough to go home today. I’m praying she’s well enough that she doesn’t need my wife to go look after her as I can’t afford more days off work. I’ve got a girl in my department go sick with stress which means I’m doing the work of two people atm. My hand is playing up chronic with all the shitty data inputting stuff I’ve had to do for her and to top it off I’ve not been feeling 100% myself.

But its not all doom and gloom, I’ve still managed a few beers this week!. On Sunday I entered a snooker comp and performed fairly well. I beat one of the better players in the league 3-2 (albeit with a handicap start) and really should have beaten the other top player in the event (lost 3-2). Despite winning three of my other four games I finished the group stage with the same win/loss record as two others and missed out on progressing by a frame or so. I was absolutely knackered after all that I can tell you. On Monday we edged closer to the snooker league title with a 10-0 win. On Tuesday I was sick as a dog and on Wednesday the mighty Spurs were on TV (COYS!).

Last night as I hit the tables again I had to get my hand ranking chart out such was the length of my lay-off. I eased myself back in with a few hundred hands of E100nl and found new fishy friends everywhere. The Euro and £ 100nl games have been my best this month with +16bi here alone. All the $ tables have been meh and I’m like a couple of bi down in the various 1/2 games. The plan going forward is more more more hands (especially this weekend). Also I need to start more tables instead of thinking “all the 100nl waiting lists are too long, I’ll just join this £50nl game instead”, seek out soft 200nl stuff to get me going at that level, and errrr, play good.

Here’s some noise to make up for the disappointing post above:-
