Hi Mark, good to hear from you. I did reply to JG's PM to me on the subject. Bar Billiards Ltd might sell you some. They are easy to make. cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160105013624 and make it out of good quality heavy duty black duck (gaffa) tape, not the cheap ribby stuff. Stick some tape to the wife's chopping board and cut a 1½ inch radius semi circle with the point on the edge of the tape. That's all I do. Best tape has peel off backing but I can't find any at the mo. If anyone reading this knows where to get a roll of black 50mm tape with peel off backing, let me know!!!. White spots can be got from stationers etc Easy!! Chris. |

Hi Mark, If Bar Billiards Ltd won't post you one post a reply here and I'll stop by to pick one up (I live fairly nearby) - then I'll post it to you. I don't know what he'll charge, but there is a difference between the originals and the tape variety!! I hope this helps Kady Thanks Chris JG forgot to tell me. :-X I will try Bar Billiards Ltd, I have made a reasonable 'D' but would like a more professional one if possible. |

Hello Sav, I cannot find Duck (Gaffa) tape with a peel off backing. Have you managed to source any yet and if so where from?

A better choice might be black nylon repair patches, available from any dress makers or haberdashers. We bought a pack which was big enough to make 6 d's for 1.75p in Sittingbourne. They are self adhesive, with a peel off backing, and the nylon is totally smooth.

Sav- SWAMBO said she'd be delighted to give you one on Sunday, so look forward to a threesome. ;D
THanks for the format, problems now solved.It's great to get two new teams and a new venue,but complicated matters somewhat.The club steward is now talking of a second table and at least one more team HELP!!!!
Have you formats for-
10 teams,3 venues with 2,2 venues with 1
11 teams,3 venues with 2,3 venues with 1
See you on Sunday
