One of the downsides to getting a bit older is that the memory can flicker in and out ….sometimes it vanishes for a day even.

I know I woke up yesterday and the sun was shining and I was all set for a big day ahead... plans all set in place.

And yet here I am waking Sunday morning and I absolutely can't remember a thing about yesterday ...something must have happened (hopefully good) ….but my mind is a complete fog about yesterday's events. Things must have happened fartoofast for me, and I ended up with a brain 'overload'. 😄

Seriously though, well done to The Wild Bunch yesterday …. we came a marchin' in all loaded up with the Joker …. and they repelled the attack with interest. Some of their number come in for a bit of light-hearted "ribbing" about some of their, on the face of it, "hairy" selections in the $30+ range, but hey it can be effective and yesterday was a perfect example, especially when more than one of them find the same "roughie". So all credit to 'The Wild Bunch'. Keep on doing what you do well, and especially congrats to my Mighty Blues buddy Gordy ...too strong for me in the run home and a worthy winner of our personal match-up.

It's the first day of Spring, it's Father's Day …. plenty of reason for optimism and we 'Toofasts' look forward to rising again and shaking up some of those high=flying teams who think they may have our number.

Wishing a Happy Fathers Day to all us fathers and grandfathers - and a very happy and successful Spring.

Thanks again PJ for this latest version of your wonderful comps …. always very much appreciated. We 'Fartoofast's will be joining in very soon. 😊

Special mention of our 'FarTooFast' star player Robert (Double R) …. has been enjoying a highly successful start to this Spring Comp campaign ….  carrying on a fine PJ Comp tradition of players picked late in the 'Draft' who quickly go on to enjoy considerable success. Well done, Sir ! 👍

I am younger so my memory is unfortunately a bit better...

I remember this from the "inter-team communications" earlier this week..
Geoff: "With us playing the joker, I wonder if it would not be prudent for someone to post late, just in case there was one roughie that more than 2 of them end up on?"
Howie: "I'll post late this Saturday, as Geoff's advice has real merit. I'll be looking out for any longshot that 2 or more of our opposition have - as  a Team Profit point x2 for the Joker play would be some consolation in the unlikely event that we lose the match."

And yesterday ...
Captain Corporal Private Howie: "that's right, I'm the only one on the planet not on 'Cutadeel'. I will always walk in the direction my heart tells me to go, even if I must walk alone. 😊)"

those two memories will haunt for years to come I am thinking 🙂
