I got a bit of a confession to make. (Though you probably know this already if you've seen my Twitter feed.)

I'm actually going to the first day of this. Though techincally it's everything I hate about snooker, short matches and shot clocks etc, I though seeing the old geezers play might be a fun day out. And Portsmouth isn't difficult for me to get to on the train.

Though I carelessly didn't realise that coming back from Portsmouth on the Sunday would make me miss real snooker. (The International thingy starts on the day). But I thought it might be a good laugh to have a couple of beers and laugh at the old codgers.

Had Steve Davis,Nigel Bond or Jimmy White Qualified for the International Championship they would be in a Massive Dilemma

Main Tour Ranking Tournament or World Seniors.

Steve Davis could've done what he did when he played in Haywards Heath's Premier League, whilst he was supposed to be in Bahrain. rofl

He claims he doesn't eat kebabs. More of a meat pie and pasty man.

I legitimately hate kebabs. Once I got really snake hissed, had one recommended by a mate, tried it and got drunkenly angry at him for recommended something that tasted like my last bowel movement.

Post-pub grub is either burgers, or it's chips in pitta for me.
