Interesting point though... if you cant place a ball next to the "ball on" in the direction of the cue-ball, does that not make it a free ball? In this you couldn't because the black ball was in the way.

The ref could and did place a ball to check.

This is all Gilbert's fault.

kyren wilson has blonde hair now.

Thanks - I hadn't seen that picture previously.

Looking at that, you'd have to say the referee is correct = no free ball

Yes.

The Milkman's form has really gone sour in recent times.

Duane vs Jamie, in a Battle Of The Joneses.

I like Milky-pants. Great player to watch when in flow.

Also, Jak Jones is also playing at the moment.

Which shop is he in?

It's hard to keep up with them...

Please for Lilley but bad news for my Think Pink chances.

Admittedly at that point I’d only seen him play about two shots but one of them was a fabulous long red!

So Oliver Lines tests negative on Sunday, wins on Monday, then has to withdraw because his dad tests positive on Monday and they spent time together on Saturday.

I understand that the virus can take a few days to show as positive on tests, no issue with that.

But why the buck didn’t they test them both at the same time since presumably they travelled up together? They must have known that if one would need to withdraw the other would too.

That's called Common Sense Iranu which is sadly lacking from authorities.

Give over Murphy, I want to watch the Milkman

To be fair to the Milkman he’s probably been up since about 4.

Just a house spider. Strangely, there was a spider in my dream last night. Usually I have nightmares about wasps, my real phobia.

Anyway...

Apparently house spiders aren’t capable of getting their venom into human skin. So they’re pretty harmless to us. False Widows though, they’ll get you. Had them living in my blue bin a couple of years ago. Little hammers.

Murphy almost lost his whey there. Didn’t even skim the red.
