Perhaps this sentence confused him!

I have got to go to the Glad's tonight to pick up some tickets, so, if Ernie would like picking up and taken home again afterwards I will gladly offer my services but someone will have to let me know by 6pm.

Thanks fo pointing that out Keith but I doubt that is why Ernie got confused. The draw sheets in the venues are separate and clearly state (at the top) the dates the games are to be played on. I doubt that many people have bothered reading the final paragraph as quite a few games have been cancelled and won't be played by the 31st Dec. I must have just copied the paragraph from the 22nd draw sheet. :-[

If a player is confused you would think they would say something wouldn't you. There's a piece of technology around called the telephone or e-mail. My phone no. & e-mail address are always on the draw sheets.

Thanks for your offer to give Ernie a lift too. I will hopefully be able to get back to you soon on that.

Cheers
Alan

The game between E Smith v J Boal @ Glad's is cancelled.

I've spoken to Ernie and it seems that he may, indeed, have read the paragraph at the bottom of the draw sheet without looking at the full sheet. :-[ (even more now!) I will arrange for this game to be played by a "play by" date sometime in the new year.

Cheers Alan, some things never cease to amaze me!!

[Richard Stowe R.I.P.]

Three's

1. Grant Johnson 1050 lost to Mark Trafford 12680. Two breakes of 6k+ made this an easy win for Mark.
2. Reg Johnson 1370 lost to Pauline Withey 3100. Close game but Pauline had the upper hand.
3. Richard Stowe 720 lost to Ian Gordon 5250. Ian beat me easy, no excuses just couldn't play the table.
4. Grant 3080 lost to Mark 8180. Grant played a lot better in this game but Mark always in charge.
5. Reg 6100 beat Pauline 3110. Reg played much better in this game to win a game that was closer than it looks.
6. Richard 1020 lost to Ian 4450. I lost more than I kept, but Ian was always in the driving seat.

Mark, Pauline and Ian 5 Grant, Reg and Richard 1.

Good luck to our opponents in the next round.

A good evening with a nice friendly atmosphere.
