I lost 2-0 to Rick. Game 1 I went off with nothing, Rick good break to take the leg. Game 2, Rick went of with not a lot, a few goes each and then I got 3k before hitting the 1 up too thin and taking the peg and Rick saw the match out. Thanks to Joe for scoring.

You could have just given me a plain no instead of this ruse about Ellis :-)

Bevy 5-0 Caxton
Ellis 4760 890 Dayle (Ellis steady throughout and no luck for Dayle) Doug 4400 3830 Reggie (Good breaks for both players but Reggie just ran out of time) Zoe 3780 800 Peter (Excellent 3k break from Zoe despite flirting with the middle of the table for a while) Ash 1830 350 Dover (Black peg for Dover didn't help his cause) Brian 3710 650 Shaun (Same pattern as game one)
Great evening with the Caxton boys and girls.

I had the pleasure of meeting Terry and Sue several times in Jersey mainly. This is terrible news and my condolences to all the family.

Bevy 2-3 Moulsecoombe Club Stand in captain (Me) was useless Ellis 220 1920 Martin - nothing went for Ellis, Martin was slow and steady Bella 3680 1970 Dave - Bella stayed on the table longer than Dave did Doug 2330 4750 Tim (Scotney) - a name from the distant past, off quite early but I couldn't get going, I had a chance to catch later but came off on a badly hit split. Tim made no mistake Brian 6590 2600 Colin - Not much in it until Brian hit a match wiing break late on Liam 750 5070 Phil (The one armed bandit) - again nothing would go for the home side.

George beat me 2-0 last night
The table was fine provided you gave it 100% concentration.

A very unproductive night for me last night
I lost 2-1 to Steve Hurley at the Master Mariner. Steve thought the game started at 7.30 not 7.15 and the game went to three legs so I was half an hour late getting to the Stag only to be beaten 2-0 by James Whittle in the plate game. Apologies to James for my tardiness.

I have very fond memories of Charlie, particularly in Jersey. Having a drink with him in Harry Barbet's local I asked where Gina was?
I told her I was popping out for the paper - was his reply with that wonderful sense of humour.

Lights
Oct 8, 2021 7:16:16 GMT
Post by doug on Oct 8, 2021 7:16:16 GMT
Let there be light !!! Hi all, I am putting together a new light for our table. It will be a single bulb with a shade. Can anyone guide me as to how high off the cloth it should be and where in the table it should be located, over the Black peg for example.
Many thanks
Doug

Count the Dawson mob in COVID permitting. Thank you Sami, partner, Nige and Matt for picking this up. Can I also give my thanks to Chrissie for all she has done the last few years. All of your comments earlier are perfectly valid but I have every confidence that the new team will continue to run the weekend seamlessly.

I would suggest that following the very recent government announcement regarding social distancing (Avoiding pubs clubs etc) the committee should seriously consider a postponement for now. Whilst I am not old (Don't snigger at the back) I do have underlying health issues (No i'm not pregnant, I just look like it) which technically put me at risk and a lot of us do have elderly relatives who need to be considered.

Bevy A vs New oak A
Bella 5,100 - 4,600 Nigel - The table decided to play tricky tonight and Nigel not able to get anything going against a steady Bella Sandra 4,760 - 1,590 Marcus - Marcus couldn't get anything going at all Ellis 1,250 - 2,670 Bob - Neither players could get the break going but Bob did just enough Kev 1,090 - 7,840 Phil - With everyone struggling with the break Phil hit a masterful 7k by playing the one and split (Gave the scorer a headache - ME!!) Doug 1,310 - 6,310 Ian - Ian got the pace perfect on the break giving me little chance.
Bevy A 2-3 New Oak A

Bevy A vs Albion Pocket Fishersgate Rocket The table was tricky on the night with Little Toni the highest scorer with a masterful display.
Sandra 2,180 1,190 Lance - Bit scrappy all the way through with Sandra coming out on top Bella 2,880 3,860 Toni - Toni rarely missed and Bella didn't get the break back until it was too late Kevin 2,850 1,970 Dave J - another scrappy one with Legs getting enough on each visit. Doug 610 3,310 Alan - 'Doug how wold you describe your performance tonight? - No comment' Ellis 2,470 1,310 Gemma - Ellis to the rescue again, this one was close until Gemma took out the black peg but she finished with a tidy break at the end.
Bevy A 3-2 the other team.
An enjoyable evening and my comment on Toni needing a drugs test was met with a couple of thumps to the ribs.

And the scores Bevy A vs Bevy B
Legs 5,190 1,080 Ringo (aka Michael Ring) - Legs not too much trouble against the B team debutant Sandra 1,920 1,980 Ash - Sandra took pity on the birthday boy (good job he played early judging by the state of him at the end of the evening) Doug 4,890 1,970 Phil - Phil lost a couple of breaks that would have made this one closer Ellis Candy 1,400 B/P Martin - our own debutant found out how different playing a match was to practice games but he kept his head down and was helped by Martins black peg half way through Zoe 1,620 3,620 Dave - Dave steady to take the consolation game.
A 3-2 B

Sheena 2,520 - 680 Doug - Couldn't get the break back Liam 1,840 - 1,540 Sandra - Couldn't get the break back Steve 3,510 - 2,040 Lorraine - Did get the break back but couldn't capitalise Kim 1,930 - 1,090 Heather - Couldn't get the break back (Anyone see a theme here?) Brian 5,500 - 860 Heather - Got the break back but couldn't capitalise
Railway Club 5-0 Bevy A
Nice food served but the host team. We're back up to full strength next week with the return of Legs & Co. Those of a certain age will know who they were!!!!

Montreal A vs Bevy A
Moppy 2,750 3,470 Bella - Steady game from Bella took the opener against the break DJ 2,240 6,140 Sandra - Scores equal after the first visit each then a good break from Sandra put her well clear Gary 660 3,020 Zoe - What can I say? the best I have ever seen Zoe play, each shot had a measured pace and Gary couldn't get the balls back Bob 4,850 1,620 Kevin - Legs had a black peg but couldn't get the balls back giving Bob a pressure free game Bob (4 player) 2,070 3,030 Doug - Another game where the chaser couldn't get the break back
Mont A 1-4 Bevy A
A good win for the away team played in a great atmosphere with a new game of moving Lorraine's picture round the pub.

Bevy A vs Duke of Wellington
Sandra 2,680 6,970 Mick - Sandra off with a couple but didn't score much more, Mick with a couple of breaks. Zoe 1,270 9,100 Colin - Colin worked the table out early and was never challenged Doug B/P 2,080 Kevin - I had the world champ on the ropes until an indecisive shot lost me a 2k break near the end Bella 5,120 3,050 Dave - Bella coming back into form Kevin 3,360 8,520 Tupps - Tupps slow to get going but cam through in the end.
Lovely spicy chicken and chips though too spicy for Zoe. Thanks to the Mont for hosting an enjoyable evening.
