    Was in Cardiff 1991 for Wales famous victory over Germany at the Arms Park. After the game we had a quiet drink in a quaint little pub at the docks called “The Customs House” ! LOL ! Cheers.

    The winners money is £80,000, ( £40,000 each player). Nowhere near the top prize in darts, The World Champion, Littler, got £500,000, and this year the winner will get £1,000,000 but it’s nice to have “World Cup Winner “ on your resume’ ! LOL ! Cheers.

    Years ago there was two “Bulldogs “ in Amsterdam, but that’s the one we used to drink in when on stopovers. Cheers.

    I noticed a big change in Littler’s demeanour from him winning the World Youth Championship to after he won the World Championship. He became more “cocky”, arrogant even. Now, there’s nothing wrong with that, it didn’t do Bristow any harm, and I think any top sportsman needs that confidence, but Littler is such a young age and to have all the success , money and accolades coming so quickly could easily turn his head. I hope it doesn’t, as I think he could be the next Phil Taylor ! He needs a good support team behind him to advise and direct him. Cheers.

    The government have refused for months to have a Statutory Nationwide Inquiry into the Pakistan rape gangs. Now Baroness Casey has done a report into it and has said there SHOULD be an inquiry. Last January Starmer said anyone wanting an inquiry is just jumping on a far right bandwagon…. Now he’s done a screeching U turn. Labour don’t want the inquiry because the councillors, MP’s and Police commissioners who have covered the rape gang scandal are almost universally Labour ! This could end up a cover up of the original cover ups,I hope not, but I have absolutely no trust in thi

    Don’t worry, she’ll just think you’re trying to get the saluki back…..LOL ! Cheers.

    Humphries was bad the whole match. Littler started badly but got slightly better. Scotland got whitewashed by the Dutch . Hong kong beat the Swedes. Some surprise results ! Cheers.

    They should take it back after the way he and Humphries have just played ! Thrashed by the Germans in the World Cup of Darts. Cheers.

    When Saudi Arabia decided to have a national airline, they turned to America and TWA was given the contract to develop and run the airline. It was manned almost exclusively by American personnel, coincidentally, the Saudi Airforce was run mainly by Lockheed with British and American instructors. When Saudi Arabian Airlines decided to have a Major Base in Jeddah, they turned to mainly British Engineers, the majority coming from Rolls Royce in Derby and British Airways in Cardiff, and people like myself who were already employed in the Middle East aircraft businesses. It took over

    I just been gifted this shirt by a pal who runs the bars at the Premier League venues; I said to the missus “ I’m wearing it when I take you out for dinner tomorrow “. She told me “ no you’re f***ing not !” I affected a hurt look and said “ but I thought you liked darts ? “ She told me to f**k off again ! Theres no pleasing them ! LOL ! Cheers.

    Not now, I very rarely go to a pub. Haven’t picked up a set of darts in years, but still take a keen interest in, been to Premier League games in Newcastle and watch on telly whenever possible. Cheers.

    No, mate. Just a pub player. Cheers.

    I feel your pain mate ! LOL ! Every trip I make involves fishing, hunting, dogs, etc, but the wife doesn’t mind. I travelled the world with her when she was a darts player, so I guess we are even ! LOL ! She does all the travelling now, and I’m content to stay at home, although I’m looking forward to my trip to Ireland in December. Cheers.

    I loved Texas. Managed to tick two things off my bucket list; visit the JFK assassination sites and see the Alamo. Started in Dallas, stayed in the Presidential Suite for one night at the Dallas Hylton then rented a rag top Mustang and drove to SanAntonio and stayed with friends. Also went out to Fredericksburg and stayed in a log cabin belonging to President Johnson , for a night. In San Antonio , the river side area is a good visit, take a boat down the river and there’s loads going on on the river banks. Met some hunters in a bar and they took me for a run with some staghounds,

    When I see something, ( not your post, by the way, I saw the funny side of it), that I think is incorrect, I can’t help myself, I have to reply with a rebuttal. It’s not arrogance, malice, me being a big head or showing off , or, as Mushroom would say “peacocking “, I just like to give my considered opinion. I don’t get upset when my protege contradicts something I’ve had a lifetime of experience in, I just take a deep breath and try to direct him in the right direction, it’s a good excercise in self control ! LOL ! Cheers.
