Turbos n Ghey quizzes
Todays big shout out and thanks go to Rosie for her donation to my sisters fundraising effort for the Maggies Centre cancer charity. Just had an email from my sis to let me know she's delighted that a couple ( Mr Edge too) of my poker playing friends have contributed to http://www.justgiving.com/nicolashike. You guys are the dogs dangly bits!
I’d just posted here last night and was about to begin playing when I noticed an email from my
Miami Mark with a few ghey questions ( see below) attached.Answered ‘em, forwarded it to a few saddo’s I thought may reply, ( just kidding troops) and then waited for Mark to get on the Yahoo thingy.He had a webcam and full sound which was cool as Mrs A was out working.We had a laugh as I accepted his “voice invitation” and then spent 5 minutes scrabbling around in my dark cupboard hunting for my daft wee headset and muttering to myself before I realised that my new laptop has a built in mic and he could hear me already.Doh!
MM has an account at Pokerroom so I opened it up and hit up MM’s game of choice,$10 turbo Sng’s.I won one ,bubbled in another and crashed and burned in the other two.Great to catch up with MM and good to hear that both him and his Mrs are doing well.Hopfully more games and nonsense to follow.
Cancelled Sat night over at friends who stay ¾ hr away as my car has failed its MOT and that invalidates my insurance and it would be just my luck to have an accident or get done for speeding on the way over.Quiet weekend of pokery goodness and time spent with Mrs A ahead.Big week next week for Step A as she starts high school.She's had a haircut and her ears pierced and a new ( no cartoon characters on it!) schoolbag too.
Before I go Congrats to Scottish tennis player Andy Murray for beating Fedderer this week.He's only 19 but with Brad Gilbert now coaching him hopefully he can go right to the top and at least win a Grand Slam or two.
Righty to the ghey quiz.Feel free to ignore,delete my answers and leave yours in my comments or blog 'em....

Hey Acorn,
Good to catch up on yer blog. I gave it a menshy on the ghey questions i sent to MM (never thought he'd be the first to reply! BTW, ur mail isn't on my 'send lots of pish to' list, so i'll have to rectify that...)
The missus has had her best friend survive leukemia, so i think any cancer charity is worth investing in.
Therefore, I have a proposition for you(s)....
I will donate £100 to you and the sharks of your choice to split which ever way you (Acorn) see fit, to see how high much you(s) can win for your sis.
You lot play (details to be ironed out my man) until the 15th sept, then cash out and donate the 'stake' and the 'winnings'.
Furthermore, i will guarantee the £100 for your sis's fund. If you(s) make more, job done. If you(s) make less, i'll make up the difference to £100.
Who is up for and more importantly, is capable of the challenge???
