It is starting to get better. Guy who my dad used to work with went professional about 2 years ago, and he is doing so well now. Alan Tabern. He has beat Taylor, but not on TV. But he almost did last year, it was down to the very very last round, and he fucked his finish up. It was a shame.

I like all the darts. They should play happy families though and get it all back in a oner.

PDC isnt as traditional though, which is why the other darts players dont like it. Im not a fan of that traditional side to it. The PDC is like a big show aswell and has awesome intros with theme music and smoke machine n all sorts. It just adds to the experience when you're there. Also there are a lot more women in the PDC crowds.

Its a bit difficult to tell the difference, everyone has boobs and the women have facial hair. I think the only way to tell the difference is the men spit further.

Nah, Dart's isn't meant to be for kids that just watch the big flashing lights. The intros are rather stupid, it's not WWF ffs.

It should be. Pre-diet Fordham vs Phil "The Power" Taylor...

Never understood why it's so popular. Rubbish to watch.

Lev · I've not seen the sun in weeks

And Leeds are really exciting.

thrashduck · A bit geeky

Fuck off if you think darts is better to watch than football, that is.. madness.

hod feemo · Full blown swine vomit

I found Leeds is one of the hardest cities to get pissed in, the pubs are so far apart I kept sobering up before getting to the next one.

Carlisle however I found myself having rough sex with this guy (not her behind me, yeeesh).....

Don't you be tounging Jimmy Dyer!

Haha, she's proper disgusted!

Yeah, places are pretty spread out in Leeds now I think about it... and there's loads of places that are literally too hard to find... just get wankered in the station and get back on the train..
