No, I avoided the dreaded Poker games, although our MD got caught out a couple of times. But I did end up at a Steak eating contest in a pub in Brixham.
The pub governor hosted the event to raise money for charity. Chas, Dave and Mickey had to eat as much Steak as they could manage. I can't remember the rules, but of course, it turned into an afterhours drinking competition
that moved into a side room of the pub. This included the governor as well, along with me and the other musicians I was working with. It was quite a boozy late one.
The next day, we found out someone had broken into the pub and emptied out a till without anyone noticing. The governor hadn't cashed up.
