In Response to Sky Poker UK Final Thanks:

I,ve just got back home after a second very long day.
Firstly, many thanks to Sky Poker and DTD for an excellent tournament. great structure, much merriment.
Secondly, on a personal note my thanks go to all the crew,(Aaron, Tony, Sarah, Jill, Claire and i suppose Des as well,although after his last blog entry for me i don't know lol), for the support you gave me throughout my time in the tourny. Even though i was down there on my own it was lovely to feel that i had a lot of genuine support behind me. These people are the unsung stars of the show and work very hard, and looked completely knackered at the finish, especially Tony(although to be fair he looks knackered all the time lol). Des you should be proud of these people.
I am sad that the tour has finished, because the banter and freindships that have been built up through the tour have made it a pleasure to get in the car and drive hundreds of miles to see many a friendly face and share a (few) beer with them all.
Can't wait for the next sky event.

To all the sky staff, Compo,T kay and Des eeh all, what a great bunch of guys.
Des for all your encouragement.
T kay for keeping us laughing with your "French dealer lady table" comments.
All the DTD staff for their professionalism as always this place really is the Ds Bs.
All the dealers especially martyn who always seems to deal good for me"thanks for keeping me in when I called
Kh Qh with my A A and you put an ace on the flop, a heart flush for them on the turn and paired the board for
me on the river for a full house,cheers mate"
It was a pleasure to be sat next to norman pace on table 21 when I had my run of hands quad 9 qqs and trip 9.
And many congratulations to the eventual winner Robbie O'Brien very well done.
Such a solid player,you deserve every success and I enjoyed every minute at the table with you.A veritable
gentelman at such a young age, your parents should be proud of you.(being a grandad myself I should know)
But most of all my thanks go to Lynne my long suffering wife(who also came 3rd in the last event on sunday night
well done).If I am a rock(peter) then she is my mountain and without her i am nothing.
(But don't tell her I said that)
Thanks Lynne for everything X
No matter what your personal result, it is always nice to renew past friendships and meet other new Sky players.
Well done Sky and I look forward to your next event.
