    For you young ones on here I hope you have not,
    here is some examples of what i mean
    simple one first,Darts,180,ive done many at home,but only ever one in a game with some one else.
    have you gone round the Board,at singlles in 20 arrows,
    Now thats easy,try it,
    have you ever cleared the table at pool from break off,and not a fluke in it in a league match,
    have you watched 4 persons play SOLO(CARD GAME)and each player have 13 of the same suit
    Can you play 13 card brag,and seen an opponent not knowing which card to throw away
    he had 4 aces,4 kings,4 queens,and the 3 of diamonds,in the end he slung his cards on the table...we paid up
    for 3 aces,3kings,3 queens,and acq of diamonds

    see what i mean you youngeer ones,if you have participated in these events, well done good on yer
    the best is yet to come
