2. Father Hall (sent out on errand, returning without most important item)3. Pony-tailed Guy (for crimes against chess)1. For Charlady, beer juggling should read 'wine juggling', and I believe she tripped over a chair (some Chairperson !) 2. Father Hall was sent out for "papers and a Mars Bar" and returned with papers only ! 3. Master Bateup took on Q at what turned into quite a needle match at chess, but unaccountably - and after much deliberation - took his own piece ! :o :o ::) TART ! But - there's no denying the credentials put forward for Vinny. He was also second person up for the karaoke (with a Billy Joel rendition I think.) Northants tarts must visit Jersey next year to add to the occasion.

I'll definitely try to get to Jersey next year but I'm not sure about the rest of the Northants Tarts :D

Well, last year was my first visit in seven years and I thoroughly enjoyed it. This year instead of being looked after in Mother Hen's party and flying, I took the wife and we went by the high-speed catamaran and took the car over.
Sailing does work out a bit cheaper if you can take advantage of the various special offers, but you have to offset your petrol expenses getting to Weymouth and back. Petrol's cheaper in Jersey so you can claw a bit back by filling up whilst over there.
But it's always a gamble on the weather, they won't run the Sea Cat in Force 5 wind or above and you then have to take the slow boat back which takes a gruelling 10.5 hours as opposed to 3.5 hours.
We were very lucky this year, the sun shone and the crossing both ways was like being on a millpond.
If you fly and there's a party of six of you, you can hire a Fiat Multipla at reasonable cost, which gets you from the airport to your hotel and also around the island for a massive pre-competition pub crawl.
And for accomodation, you have a choice of the Ommaroo or the De Normandie or a number of guest houses close to the Ommaroo, so are spoiled for choice of where to get bladdered. The White Horse pub on the corner is an alternative watering hole. The BB Reaper was still drinking in the Roo Lounge of the Ommaroo at 5am on Monday morning, apparently. :o

All good sheep jokes belong on this thread, this one comes courtesy of Josie: Man walks into the bedroom with a sheep under his arm while his wife is lying in bed reading.
Man says: "This is the pig I have sex with when you've got a headache."
Wife replies: "I think you'll find that is a sheep."
Man replies: "I think you'll find I was talking to the sheep"

Time to bump this thread again and beseech my old mate Mick (Herr van Puebik) to sort some points out for 2008: Cop a load of this: Thanks, I studied Kipling at school as part of A Level English and love his books and poems....... memory must be reasonable still as that was a long time ago now...... ::) ;) Now the BB Warrior should receive about a million Kipling Tart points, maybe for just being unaware that this noble award even exists. Also he has indulged in some outrageous flirting with DA-DM so IMHO ticks most of the boxes. We need a successor to the previous winners, Me (2006) and the Colemanator (2007). Sav is still so proud of his runner-up award from 2006 that he has left a note of it in his signature. If further nominations are needed, we could put forward the moth that made such a dramatic appearance at Mid Sussex Finals Night (it nearly flew off with the black peg) and Q - for being, well, Q. ;D ;D ;D

The kamikaze moth at Mid-Sussex Finals Night should certainly deserve a Kipling Award..... if only because it turned up about an hour too late (and on the wrong table! :o) to carry out it's planned sabotage attack on the black peg..... after it had received months of training designed as counter-tactics to the BB Reaper's shirt and impressive 13k+ break against me in the first game.... :o :P With regards to the charges of outrageous flirting with DA-DM... I feel that I have little alternative but to plead guilty m'lord and throw myself on the mercy of the Kipling Court...... may your wisdom by guided by the quantity of "exceedingly good cakes" (or "Happy Cake Bites" >:() that may be consumed in an evening..... ;D :o 8-)

Well, there hasn't been much else that was noteworthy - apart from the Mid-Sussex Finals Night kamikaze moth, young Boball not being able to call out the score '69' with any sort of decorum, and maybe Lolly for deserting Northants and joining the Pink brigade. ;)

Well if we were still doing Kipling I reckon Dave Williams would be top of the league by a mile :o :o :o :P Playing half a game with one of the white balls in his pocket would have been worth a few points and then in the middle of a break playing against the Exiles he decided to change his glasses... took off the ones he was wearing tried to find the other pair on the table he had left them on and promptly knocked all the beers over...he then found his glasses came back to the table put his cue through a ceiling tile and eventually resumed his break by pinning a peg with the next shot ;D ;D :P

A late nomination............just remembered this incident from the return journey back to Sussex from the Bucks Open: The Reaper made a brave effort to match Gary Powell's roadside endurance record on the journey home but fell short by about 40 seconds. ;D This was after "Mum ! Stop The Car !" about a dozen times. ;D
