However I had terrible heartburn and stomachache yesterday. (See my thread in Life.) So should stay off the bed today. Still no alcohol since the third of January.


Turns out, I thought correctly.

Anything special he's saying?

Mostly about how it feels to play Ronnie, and the things you can do to try to stop Ronnie, like slowing the game down, putting the balls awkward or playing a very attacking game...

He also says he admires Ronnie and Higgins and learns from watching them.

No unfair play bullocks, 99% of the players are brutally honest on the table.

Over a bit quick. You could argue Ebdon was better value for seconds vs pound spent.
