Horsham Div 2 singles semi's.

[paulJ]

Result from the Bull earlier: Steve 1, Paul 2. First two games went with the break (great, no whitewash).
Equal breaks in the third game, accustomed to the pace by then, all went OK. Nice venue, background
music, top played well. Couple of Foster's helped, thanks bro Peter for lift and doing scores.
