its true thou, sporting scots do seem a very sour bunch, hendry, monty, murray, dalglish.
I dunno what other Scots are like when they,re playin,but i,m the very same.
You should see my face when i play snooker,you,d think i,d just heard that someone .
I love a laugh,but when i play snooker i don,t like lauging,i don,t like talkin neither,as it really spoils my concentration.
I remember once when i played a woman who just joined our club,it was the very first time we played,after the first frame was over which i thankfuly won,we started the 2nd,and after a few shots into the 2nd frame,she suddenly asked me in a shyish voice,"are you alright?".
I looked at her and asked,"how do u mean?",she then replied,"you look kinda sad",i then burst out laughin and then said,"me sad,nah,i,m always like this,(when i play snooker that is").
We finished the frame,played after that another,then we had a drink and a laugh together at the bar.
I told her,that when i play snooker,i play snooker,i,ve tried to sometimes laugh,exchange a few words during play,but it does,nt work,one laugh,a few words here n there leads to others which then totally spoils my concentration.
On the table i,m a miserable,sad,sour faced lookin being,but off,the sour face becomes a happy,sweet one.
