Nan- He plays darts as well - DONCHYERKNOW?!

Hope you and Barry are well.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Over the last 5 years here I have been beaten by:-
People in Bermuda shorts. One in Union Jack shorts. Some one in flip flops.
A 93 year old man. ( Thanks Eric!) A non lady dart player who asked how she could hit the 50 she had left. (Red bit in the middle, says I - Bugger!)
Young Paniotti, Rainbow, with a 105 out! - Eh?
I was nearly beaten by an old lady on a zimmer frame and have lost to someone on crutches.
I can go on n on. But this afternoon...............
...........I thought I would lose to Leon, Armourada, with his right shoe hanging off. His sole having "argued" with his trainer. Leon faced the board his trainer sole faced directly the opposite. You all know that when a sole comes away from a trainer the whole shoe seems to talk to you. That sole was a flapping tongue saying. "Yer gonna lose mate!" Panic set in. I have never lost to a guy with one and a half "talking shoes" before! No problem for a focused Egg though and pressure was over and a result in my favour.
Then, I played his good lady wife, Verena.
(Only the second time she has played darts)
I miss 40 and she finishes on a clinical 47.-  2 darts 7 and double 20.
Maybe I have found my mixed pairs partner for next Winter. Whatever that outcome, it is yet another "bizarre" result in the history of the dart playing Egg. - Cheers.

Sounds like Leon and Verena are getting in some practise on the dartboard. We will see them in five weeks for some practise too!

Hello everyone, enjoying my holiday in Arillas, just found out that Eggy hasn't lost only, to from who he says is Elizabeth Queen of Amourada who showed Neill where double 3 is, Vasillas King of Amourada made Neill asking for an Ouzo after beating him, Alexandra (Spiro rainbows daughter) who gave darts lessons to Eggy, no mention about Night Owl team, the Rainbow brothers, Captain Bob, Makis, Nickos and Nickos son Spiros, little Petros, showed Neill he isn;t little anymore at Night Owl. Rumours say that even Snoopy, Nick and Linda's dog has beaten Eggy finishing with a bull. Ha ha ha, thats still under investigation, more to come.
p.s. Panagiotis, Jimmy's son has had a few excellent wins on him also.

Anyone wishing a list of dart player excuses please e-mail and I will send you a 25 page list. (The other 25 pages will be to follow!)

For all you Arillas (Darts) addicts out there.

A list of things to do which you may find interesting.

14th June is a darts K/O at Sunset Bar in Agios Stephanos.

20th June is a darts and pool night at Rainbow Bar (Bit o fun is planned)

22nd June is a darts night at Armourada (You know where this is!)

27th June will be a darts night at Tria Adelphia, (You all know Tria)

If you want to get away from pointy things then try Three W's every Sunday as they have live music. Darren May strutting his stuff.

Good places to be whether you throw an arrow or not. It will give you all a chance to spend some time with us locals who put a great value on, you telling us, what's going on back in the UK. Bend our ears for change.

Cheers

Last nights Sunset Bar K/O, at Agios Stephanos, was a great success.

Just like Xrisanthos n Marguerita ,at Three W's, this is a large committment to the sport by Spiros at Sunset. They are both worth a visit, if not for the super lunchtime snacks at Three W's but an evening special at Sunset.
And of course.......a few games of darts.

More pics to follow.
Cheers

You just might recognise a few faces amongst these.
Rumour has it that the guy with the "Confucius" t-shirt won the singles K/O.
Thanks to Spiros at Sunset for laying on a free buffet to all.













Cheers

Neill, Calum is counting down to when he can send us home and apparently he is staying with you and Wendy so he can show you how to play ha ha ha.

Let me know when you want him

I don't think Wegg would like the idea of Calum and I out gallivanting every day with darts in hand.
And.... when we come back, there is always that practice board at Home.
(She's packing a suitcase as I type - A long way to go for jelly beans!)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A super gesture, by Kevin, so we now have to get together and devise a new Winter competition.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Momo - Maybe positive thinking linked with a very lucky draw.
And...... my neighbour Makis couldn't be there!!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tomorrow night I am trying my hand at Pool,in the Rainbow K/O, as well.
(It's hard enough getting the Punto to go in a straight line!)

Anyone here, next week, may be interested to know that Tria Adelphia is having a darts "bash" on Wednesday 11th. Even if you don't play it may be a good time to pop in and, hopefully, put some faces to names.

Cheers
