A long wait, as per usual in these competitions but Kelvin's (Moley) number finally got called out! Late on in the preliminaries, on the board in the other bar. No problems for Kelvin (Moley) as he eased through into round 1. Still a long wait from Kelvin's (Moley) match before my (Linx) number was called out.
Already into round 1 after missing all the preliminary matches, I'd already got as far as Kelvin (Moley). The starting was poor, the scoring was distinctly average but the finishing was on par with Peter 'one dart' Manley! 2 - 0 the score and onto round 2!.
Kelvin's (Moley) next match and mine (Linx) were the same as before. Not pretty but two victories nevertheless, and I continued my 100% checkouts on the doubles including two double tops from 4 legs (get in there!).
Round two for Kelvin to join me in the last sixteen. Someone must have heightened the bar as this was as far as Kelvin (Moley) managed to get! Wasn't long after, before I joined him, as Andy Honeyman proved to be too strong for a struggling fat, bald ba$tard with man flu!
Next year when we do the qualifying, can MORE! people turn up please so me (Linx) and Kelvin (Moley) don't qualify please!!! Well, we have Matt (Serious) or Craig (Skip) representing us in the most wins cup next week so maybe we can make amends for the singles cup!

Vice Skip
PS - Thanks for chalking my two wins Fluffy
