Not posted for a bit but been following the weeman's story. Re DTD, great fun. First time I tried it I managed to FT the DTD3 (Take on Tikay as was) Since then NADA! lol. I did post my story on a thread called something like..."Diary of a DTDer Debutante" I'll try & find it for you. Some good advice if I recall.
Hi again all.Another week has disappeared so fast.Jus tryin to keep things fresh here for those that are actually still interested lol.Good and not so good news this week.Deffo gettin the early autism tests done before crimbo.Good news all round on that score as the waitin around is fast becomin an unwelcome distraction in our house as the missus has now convinced herself that it will be the"worst"case scenario.Bit of a doom and gloom merchant lol.Like I've said umpteen times it'll be what it is and thats that.The fact the weemans been quite ill this week hasnt helped what with so many sleepless nights then goin to work grrr.The tiredness shall be my excuse for this weeks poor showing at the tables!!!Not so good atm but tbh for the first time since this thread started I havent been actually too disappointed at losin a few quid.Other matters have took precedence etc.I know I havent been able to play a dtd yet.Really because mondays n thursdays are the only days me n the missus get to ourselves in the week between 1 thing and another.However I think in 2 mondays time I'll have a free night so I'm lookin forward to tryin it out as I've heard nothin but good about it.Once weemans better though,dunno what excuse I'll use to pardon my bad play )Thats it again folks for another wee while,just thought I'd share this weeks ups n downs with you and hope you continue to enjoy readin. Be good. Cheers. Paul Posted by bignoise10
Good luck with the tests and like you say, it is what it is.
Sorry for not replyin yesterday dev,glen n rancid.Appreciate the replies.I,m sure at the end of all this whenever that may be,I'll be able to look back and think there was really no need to be worryin.
Hi all (again!).I know its been no time really since my last post on this thread but in that short space of time things have progressed quite a bit.As posted earlier the weeman in all likelihood will have started his autism assessment before crimbo.But before then another set of appointments have come through rather surprisingly.Totally forgot about hearing assessments that were due cos they were discussed so long ago.Accordin to various docs,its quite possible thats whats delayin the weemans speech progress.So by months end we'll know if his lack of speech is something to do with that rather than a knock on from any possible autism.This is GOOD NEWS in our house as the missus has been climbin the walls worryin about stuff she'll never be able to change and gives her a wee glimmer of optmism.This is also good for me as it saves a lot of earache lol.So massive strides are being made in that score.Hopefully I can translate that into reasonably good poker results in the near future as the up and down nature of my play leaves a **** of a lot to be desired .Was considerin keepin a record of my performances but not sure if I have the dedication to keep a proper diary as it could leave me open to a lot of ridicule re my play ha ha.So we'll see how things pan out in the next week or 2.Gonna leave a wee tune with each of my posts from now on reflectin my mood as I think I've made enough acquaintances on this forum to share my thoughts.If I can start up a topic re my kid's wellbeing,I think I can do this also.Thanks for readin all.
In Response to Re: Real life! : Hi Big' Nice to see things are going well but please, feeding the little one on Liverpool and the Spion Kop....c'mon, it must be Everton.

Pleasure m8.Obviously never gonna be a blue.Couldnt have that ever.Once he gets his 1st taste of anfield he'll be hooked.
Dear all.I promised myself to stay away from this until further test results were available to share with you.BUT!!!.Weeman has decided outta the blue to comunicaate in 2,sometime 3 word sentences!!!:)))Total joy here as you can imagine and tonights poker is somewhat of a freeroll to me.Like I said in my last post there will be a tune with each post reflectin my mood at time of postin.Think this one sums it up best.Good luck all tonight.So happy.
That's great news Paul, glad to hear it. Kids really are wonderful, resilient things, it's amazing some of the things they can manage by just getting on with it.

Delighted the young man is doing so well.Can't remember if I thanked you for the your post to my moan about life not going good for me.If not thanks very much.Your posts are always uplifting and puts life, bad beats and all other mundane stuff in the big scheme of life into perspective.Best of luck to you and all your family.
Ha!!!!I'm a 90s fan but oasis would be tops folks.Will leave you with this tonight cos of the line "you'll never change whats been and gone".Would say it could apply to the odd bad beat lol!night all.
HI Paul, Sounds like GREAT news. I'm guessing it won't be long until he says "FFS Dad, turn that music off it's shoite"! Oh and he'd be right! ;-) Posted by Glenelg
hi Paul, always find it moving reading your posts,but in a good way. glad that things are looking more optimistic for you all. keep plodding away with your poker.... it's got to improve.... eventually!!! (* *) ^ dev
Whenever someone hits runner, runner, to suck out on you. The initial reaction is "it's so unfair" This thread puts everything into perspective.
I am in awe of the effort and positive way you and your "weeman" just get on with life. What you guys face everyday is "unfair" and I dont think you've used that word once.
So thank you and the weeman for helping me keep my life in balance and being able to appreciate what I have.
Thanks for all the responses folks.Been a good last 24 hrs and no mistake ).Gonna just keep pluggin away at my game and see where it takes me.Never gonna be playin for huge sums anyway so theres never gonna be a situation where I lose the rag that badly over a few notes.Maybe way back when I first started and had no perception of what mattered the red mist might have descended ( but never to an extent where it was abusive to anyone,just frustration with myself.Older aand wiser eh!!No poker tonight as weemans off to grannys for the night.Bit of a shindig tonight involving copious amounts of beer and red wine yay!So play well tonight all and I'll leave you with this one.
Mornin all.Early one for me today as is an early start to work this mornin.Got a half day at work as weeman's takin me out for my b'day lunch (raidin his money box).Had to post this hand though as re a piece in my previous post about the red mist coming down in the old days,I deffo have mellowed in my (old) age lol.The old runner runner finish just got an lol and a shrug of the shoulders.Still got a way to go with my play but very pleased with my attitude over the past while.This threads got a lot to do with that.Cant really be seen to be losin it while promoting sensible table manners lol.
