Agreed, 9 singles. What do you reckon about the breaks ? My suggestion : Random draw; Bailiffs breaks 1,3,5,7 & 9 Criminals breaks 2,4,6 & 8. Yes that looks Ok to me, would you suggest even, or chase the break?

I think Chase the Break to replicate Inter-League/Ashes conditions. Not a lot of point in having an even break if a Colemanator has gone off with 15,000 ! ;D

'During the war' Uncle Albert is a chap who we play pool with on a Friday night, it is quite apparent why he's called that when you see him,he'll be there when you come over next week, he's not Irish, no, he lives in Thrapston and he originates from Kettering. Herr Von Puebik, is that right? ::) Yup...looks the sort you'd expect to find in a courthouse ;) ;D

Well, it's nearly upon us - this Saturday to be exact, at the Courthouse Inn, Thrapston.
What time are we expected ? (so that us 'southern softies' can synchronise our meet-up times for the long journey 'oop north to Northants) ;D ;D

Be there for a 7.30 start, so if you aim for 7.00 then you can get sorted with drinks and the draw. :D

Which do you reckon is our best route, Ian :
A1 and A14 -
or M1 and A45 ?

Nah, Sparky, the 'priming for action' of Daisy the Sheep was supposed to be your job. ;D
Shame you can't make it, but now margo will fill in for you instead.

See what way a sat nav takes you. Probably up the M1 and A45.

Thanks Ian,
The M1 sounds the best option, I recall we took it when coming up the Northants Open at Rushden/Irthlingborough.

Be there for a 7.30 start, so if you aim for 7.00 then you can get sorted with drinks and the draw. :D Just to confirm that we've got all our transport arrangements sorted out and are looking forward to it. Sir KT and Lady H are going under their own steam so in case they're not there for the start we may have to change the order of the draw.

Thanks. We're hoping to clock up a few Kipling points on the night, and the red shoes that are redder than the Colemanator's may have to have an airing. ;D
