What is going on in the TTFE social scene this Spring? Now that the shackles of winter have been cast off so that we can all begin to frolic in the sun, TTFE has been at the forefront in the queue for a brand new pair of sexy sunglasses. Thats right, our fantastic community is showing no signs of slowing down now that we near Summer 2007.
The end of 2006 and the birth of 2007 was filled with typical TTFE random activity, from meal get-togethers to singing our nation's anthem. First of all, Plasmo organised a
Karting evening in November where his Michael Schumacher antics were on show for all to see, as he.. ahem... took a medal, but only after his "legal pass" on a fellow competitor. He didn't mind tho, he took his prize with little regret! Dale also got a medal, but TTFE failed to get the gold this time around.
At Xmas, we celebrated with a traditional
TTFE meal, complete with WAGs, carved turkey and a few drinks. It was a shame that we were all on separate tables, but we had a good time nonetheless! In the new year, I hosted the second pool tournament, dubbed
Poolmania II. Greg once more grabbed the silverware, but this time he had to fight against improved competition, not to mention the newbies Karl, Jon Pride, Mikey Pinto, Dave Weller and Pat. It was Pat who eventually forced him to play to his best in a climatic final and he also received a generous cash prize. And finally, over the past month Plasmo got us all out on a '
Stay-out-or-don't-bother' evening into Cardiff town, where we all had a good time and all stayed out until after midnight as proposed! Despite the weather a good TTFE crowd came along and witnessed the now infamous 'Weller Wiggle', which is YouTube's latest video hit!
As for the games, player partcipiation is now at it's peak. Everyone is taking turns to pick the teams every week and come up with unique team names. Not only have the games been fairer, but they have been a lot closer and hellava lot more competitive. And with the stats for every single variant available courtesy of Dale, TTFE have now given OPTA a real run for their money.
Now we look to the future, there are many more things to do and take part in. Word on the street is that Karl is in the process of organising a
poker night in the next months to come, whilst my new baby,
TTFE Pub Golf, is in the pipeline and will be underway on a Friday night sometime in May. I am also partly organising the next
Poolmania, which I hope to get sorted for sometime in May/June judging on availability. Remember if you do have any ideas which you can bring into fruition either by yourself or with a little help, please just post into the forum and we'll see what we can do. No matter how zany some ideas are, just put them up - we have seen some mad ones in our time! I think Plasmo's
surfing idea has still gone unnoticed.....
