A Fine Weekend

Cor isn't it hot? A fine weekend in Jameson's, Sam Peebles held court on Friday, and Graham MacDonald held court on Saturday, whilst Geoff Evans (with his mates Jet lagged Jim and the singing Scaffold) with help from the wonderful Jon Fox of Q Cars held centre stage on Sunday night. A lot of people had luckily escaped to the wonders of The Hong Kong Sevens, or the Change Mai Sixes, but this in no way left us short of characters round the bar and tables. Andy from Misty's put in a historic visit, aided and abetted by Stephan Hoggi, Paul Wilkinson dropped in for a quick drink, but was waylaid by the Landlord, Paul runs the Four Winds removals company and apart from being very important sponsors of the Jesters Charity Drive 2008, have a look at how important they are by having a look at our new updated Auction site at the side of this page. But also Four Winds took on the nerve racking job of moving the Fletcher household from one house to another, a daunting prospect which they carried out with great aplomb and all the workers even managed to keep a smile on their face whilst they were doing it (mind you the big fat Landlord stayed out the way, so that may have made the job a little more bearable). But it was all done so quickly and efficiently in a massive burble of bubble wrap, that before we knew it we had moved. So the Landlord was more than keen to buy Young Paul the odd beer by way of thanks, so Paul be trapped against his will in Jameson's was not his fault. But I can honestly say if you want anything moved anywhere just ring Paul at Four Winds. He can be contacted at 081-9039477.

Young Paul and Young Steve the Jameson's youth policy have more than met their match in Steve's Dad Billy and Lord Tommy, Young Steve is a shadow of his former self after trying to keep up with his Dad, whilst Paul was actually seen on his knees begging for an early night and Lord Tommy what's he like one minute drinking pints of Stella and the next drinking straight shots of double Pernod.
Talking of Stella Artois, last week saw another game of Rick Bryant's rules of Softball at Horseshoe Point, and marvelous fun it was too, a few stars were born and some new unfound skills discovered, Simon Quigley's bowling and prowess with a bottle of Stella were something to behold, Eoin Quirke is quite fantastic at batting, as long as it's just practise the whole thing goes into the basket when it's the real thing. Graham Watkins showed his true Welsh competitive spirit by bringing an element of rugby to the game of softball. The human pyramid beat all, as soon as I can get a picture of this I will let you all have look, needless to say Harpic was at the bottom of all this. The next game of Softball will be on Sunday 26th April, at Horseshoe Point with the first ball being hurled down at a good 10 mph at 3.00 p.m. Not to be missed at any cost. Nor are the Pattaya Tens Chris Kays Memorial Rugby Tournament held the following weekend also at Horseshoe Point on Saturday and Sunday 3rd and 4th May.

This weekend sees Dr. Iain Corness all a dither again as another Formula One Grand Prix hoves into view, please look up our sports schedule in the appropriate area for a full run down on all the sporting events this weekend, including the much looked forward to clash between Newcastle and Reading. Not forgetting the magnificent new giant screen at Jameson's plus a brand new plasma screen, put in for your viewing pleasure. Within the next couple of months all the TV's in Jameson's will be replaced by something from the 21st century.
It was great to see Stan and Matt the Punk in Jameson's although I cannot remember anything about the end of the evening. If Linus or Tony Ritchie read this will they please send me an e-mail as we appear to have mislaid their e-mail addresses.
The best news this week though is saved for last. Jameson's have now got a full time driver so you can drink to your hearts content now and know that you will be safely driven home by Tee. Tee used to work for Rony as his driver so is used to driving Rolls Royce's and Bentley's etc, but never mind he will still be prepared to drive your car home for you drop you off leave you with your car and keys safely deposited at your home whilst Tee hops on the back of Lurch's motorbike back to the pub ready to take the next person home. Tee will also come and pick you up from your home should you require, how's that for service with a smile.
Enough from me for this week. Have a nice week, Kim, Rony and Birthday Girl Moo.

Happy Birthday Bob

The returning shell-shocked Ken Sly, Ken has been away in Nigeria for Six weeks and is now on a two week sabbatical before he goes back there for the long haul of six months, it may take a few of us to get him on that plane to go back. It is when you really need someone like Cyclops around to ensure these nasty little jobs have to be done
