So, when we came back, glowing with pride, I contacted the Globe and asked them if they could give us a couple of column inches. Sadly, it seems the story of 2 working class white English speaking Dodge City boys is not of interest to them. I was told that out victory, putting Dodge City on the map in darting terms if nothing else, was "of no interest to the people of Dodge City".

As for the Brit thing, I'm leaving it well alone.....!!!
