Emperor Ming Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 How about this for a lads few days? Tomorrow Mrs Ming gets up early and drives me to a mates house. Five of us drive to Birmingham airport and fly to France to stay at a mates villa. We drink good french beer (lager) and eat nice french food for three days whilst we PLAY POKER After said three days, and happily full of beer (lager) and good food, I fly home and enjoy a few more days off work. Oh and we get back on Wednesday and I play in 'Texas Mings' pokeer league on Thursday. Even if I get slaughtered in France (which I shouldn't) 'Who cares'!!!!!! Three days of indulgent pleasure wth good frends. I am practicing as we speak by drinking wine and playing 'on line'.

Stew Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Nice! I hold a poker night regularly where I'm 'Cowpies' and I even keep threatening to wear my stetson I picked up on a business trip; to Texas! I do like a few beer and a game of poker. In a french villa it would be even better though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope some of your winnings are going to go towards all the engine bling you keep threatening to show us. Have you made any further progress with it? I am making progress on this front. I had a special front cover made up that cost a lot and turned out to be SHI*E I am hoping to pick up my next bit of bling tomorrow and if it is what I have asked for then some more bits go in for the treatment. I have also purchased some - spcial effects -for the engine bay and as soon as weather allows they will be fitted. The crap weather together with a lack of garage has slowed me down no end but this will soon change. ing the preparer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
