    Not convinced that it really counts on halves and shots.

    Drinking stiens.

    Steins is for pussies. Why not go full Allardyce and make it pints of wine?

    Think that might have been a joke. When I had a drink with him he was on lagers.

    Emlyn Hughes was your lager top. Might be more shades style.

    Sounds similar to this, which would absolutely kill me these days.

    I did this years ago. In fact I’ve just checked and it was on 4th Feb 2012. I know this as news broke of Nigel Doughtys death as we were doing it.

    ITV4. Champion of Champions Snooker.

    Black shoes, black slacks, shiny nylon sports t-shirt covered in sponsorship. They have their nickname on their back. Selby is "The Jester".

    It must be hard for these snooker people trying to make the game more appealing to the youngsters. Would the players look better in matching nylon shorts? That may risk one of the gentlemen popping out when lifting his leg onto the table though.

    Maybe they should just stick to white shirts with a bow tie and waistcoat.

    I believe the traditional crowd favour the gentleman's after dinner attire. Generally when I play snooker, it's jeans and a t-shirt. You can't really dress it up...what would make it appeal to the wider audience is letting the crowd get pissed up and shout a lot. As they do in all too few events.

    I mean lets make it right. It's not a moving ball game. As long as you are not being physically assaulted a professional should be able to play in, say, a pub. Like the rest of us.

    Liven it the fuck up. And I say that as someone who really likes snooker.

    That's the only way they actually managed to get people watching darts. If you want to get people watching a pub game you need to let them get shitfaced drunk, yell a lot, and make knobs of themselves.

    Totally on board with this. If you can't play a shot because someone is coughing, you don't deserve to be a pro.
    See also rugby union and "respect the kicker". FFS.

    I lost the lid of my water bottle in the office a couple of months ago. Today I found it.

    I do keep a nice collection of sets of things with a bit missing. In the hope that the other bit turns up.

    Rarely does.

    Turns out JimShady's a pervert who chases women around in parks, tricky is showing clear signs of dementia (I think he's still having an argument in his head with jamesob about Harry Kane, but you can never be sure because he refuses to name players, only says "can kick" or "can run" then we are left to guess) and Ingo is still a cunt. Everyone's had a go on Loaf's mum except Chicago who's knees weren't up to it. Todd was a massive fan of the Sheila, but the rest of us have forgotten about those 39 days.

    Oh, and Forest are back at the end of the table we're all more accustomed to.

    The bathroom sink is pretty much blocked so I bought some drain unblocker that was GUARANTEED TO WORK OR YOUR MONEY BACK. It didn’t work.

    So I bought another type today. It didn’t work either.

    I’m going to buy a plunger tomorrow to see if that does the job.
