They put me down as Irish but I hope you can tell from my username where I'm from.
Hopefully the above will copy over as these are photos taken of me when I was playing Ken.
I don't know how to do it.

And the commentator said Reane Evens was going out with Mark Allen, then corrected himself. Then later said; "Oh, we've just heard they've split up. Sorry about that."

Stephen Hendry is a quiet enough chap, but he's all right. I was standing beside him watching him playing poker one of the nights I was on the beer. Nothing wrong with him wild.
I just pm'd you by the way.

Of course its lovely to be looking down a cue again but I'm married now & a Dad & I wouldn't swap that for the world. Plus I'm not good enough anyway.
I'll continue to play amateur, get involved in the odd Pro-Am again here & there, but that'll be about it.

Yeah, your bang on the money there.
One of the first things I noticed when I started back playing, was how I needed to use the rest a lot more due to the Ilbs being put on. Feck it, it happens.
