Obviously those who know me best from the community know full well what one of my big passions in life is and that is the beautiful game of cricket where for 22 years (18 as a member) for my sins I follow and watch the almighty and reigning County Champions that are Lancashire.
I also enjoy a number of other hobbies that I have including Horse Racing (Favourite course has to be Sandown Park) and Darts.
Also have done a fair bit of travelling which I always enjoy and have been to such places like USA, France, Czech Republic, Austria, Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, Switzerland,Italy and Belgium and without doubt I hope to do a lot more and ideally I would love to visit places like Australia and New Zealand (Basically anywhere that has a cricket pitch and a decent beer tent!)
In Response to Re: Hobbies outside of poker? : I'm guessing it's either Birkdale or Lytham? Not a golfer but my son is a caddy and I usually go along for the beer! We've had accomodation for Gleneagles (2013) booked for at least 5 years!! lol Outside of poker I climb (mostly ice) run & cycle. These are VERY time consuming and restricts my time at the tables tho. I try to get to the Alps/Himalyas at least once per year & have been to Everest twice. Both unsuccessful tho :-(( Posted by Glenelg
Hi Glen and Don90 and flashjonny
No fellas. Its Southport and Ainsdale right by Birkdale golf course. It was in the 1930's and the club has all the hstorical memorabilia on display. Its a gorgeous course and is used for the Open qualifying. Its in the top 100 courses in th country(once it was 15th, i think) If there are some golfers interested in playing in the days before Blackpool then i can get 'mates rates' as a member but you do need a hcp certificate to play.........and no hoodies!!! Mind, i'm not sure if Hitsquad members should come first(loyalty and all that!). Just joking...
Actually, Tikay, if you're reading this you might fancy it too. I've got a mountain bike but me in lycra? I need to wear dark glasses. That Everset stuff is amazing though. I've played at Gleneagles and with the right weather it is truly beautiful. you will love it. try to play all three courses.
