I just want to wish everyone an enjoyable weekend, regardless of how well/badly they play (especially the Sussex contingent).
Can't tell you how disappointed I am not to be there, but I'm just not strong enough yet for an Open :-[. Hoping to be fit for Guernsey.
I see the entries have gone down again, which is slightly worrying, but I suspect this is due to the economic climate rather than a lack of interest. I hope so anyway.
Good luck also to Sean and his band of helpers, I'm sure the weekend will run as efficiently as ever.
Looking forward to seeing any updates which some kind person may choose to publish!
Once again, good luck to all.
Neil

Echoing Neil, GOOD LUCK TO ALL IN JERSEY. :-*
And Neil - so pleased to hear that you are well enough to be playing again - and even banging in the good scores: Hope your recovery continues and that you make Guernsey next May. 8-)

Plenty of arrivals today..... both of has-beens and want-to-be's! ;D The pubs with tables have been pretty busy today with a wait of nearly a couple of hours to get on the (very nice) Trinity table.... lots of laughs and friendly banter at the hotel and I am sure we will all have a few drinks to "absent friends" this evening (and probably for the rest of the weekend as well!) :o 8-) ;D ;D

Good luck to all the Guernsey pairs playing this evening ;) I will be joining you tomorrow.
After playing Bar Billiards for 35 years (mostly badly) I will be taking a new approach from now on and have appointed a new mind coach.
He has suggested I adopt the Jimmy Saville method of playing, in order to win the World Championship;
1 - Score as much as you can ;D
2 - Touch up ;D ;D
3 - And hope you don't get caught ;D ;D ;D

All,
Hope to complete updates after every 'group' stage on the Saturday to keep out fellow absentees happy. Same for the Friday and throughout the weekend.
All dependent on time obviously but I shall try and get one of my lovely assistances to help.
Good luck all (apart from the players against me).
Cheers Sean
