Hi All,
What a hectic few days.
Thanks to everyone who made my visit so good,particularly to Bruce for building me such a beautiful Zum.
Thanks to all at the TSGA for your hard work in organising the event.
Thanks to all the players for giving us the insparation.
Thanks to Denny's for the good food and interesting staff.
Thanks to Ian and staff at the Red roof inn.
Thanks to everyone for making us overseas visitors so welcome.
I think it unfair to mention names since everyone contributed to the experience.
I have no doubt that my countrymen will add something when they get home.
Best regards
Billy |

It was really great to see you in Dallas. We'll have to get over to the steak house next year there buddy. How many times did we talk and I didn't hear you got a new Zum!. Congratulations, send me some pic's when you get some. Better yet, put them on here so everbody can see it. Was it the two tone Bruce had at his booth? All the best..Wayne |

Hi Billy,
It was great to see you and your compatriots again in Dallas. I only missed seeing Ann's smiling face. Send her my regards and we'll all get together for a quaff in Ireland in the fall, okay?
Best wishes,
Jim |
