Scores as follows
Brewers Droops 3 Black Horse 2
The Brewers finally get a victory at the burnt ooops sorry the black horse. I can't comment on the matches as we were pretty much unable to view them being relegated to the back of the room due to the inordinate amount of room taken up by the toads players, and can I just add what a bloody irritating game that is, more on that later.
Dave Todd 3530 Papa Hall 1800 :( Dave Knight 3760 Jock Jeffrey 1210 ;) ;) >:( R. Bithell 2840 Flirter Hall 3760 :) R. Todd 2180 Master Bateup 2710 :) J. Bithell 550 AFW 1920 ;D ;D ;D
A difficult evening for both teams in all honesty, :( the 'top' was awkward not being able to make it's mind up which way it wanted to roll from game to game, :P and the incessant clang and clank from the toads match being held only a few feet away was irritating and distracting to say the least. ??? >:( :( Couple that with a new quiz machine right beside the door with a 'team' of people playing it and the toads captain continually walking into the player taking his shot made for a tense and irritating evening. >:( >:( >:(
Having had a long chat with Jo the landlady about such problems she informed me that she would happily place the billiard table in the committee room, or move the toads and darts in there, and was more than happy to move the quiz machine, so come on Black Horse pull the finger out and sort it out with your landlady. :-/ :-/ :) :)
Having had my Victory whinge ;) we move on, as always the landlady and the staff gave us a very warm welcome its a great pub with great atmosphere, ;D ;D ;D the team barricking was a little on the scarce side due to the reasons listed above as was the food uncharacteristically for the Horse. :'( Highlight of the evening Andy Farmer Stealing the Victory over Jan ;D ;D lowlight of the evening turning around to discover the toads people eating my sandwiches as if they weren't annoying enough. :o :o :o :) Ha ha
Thanks to Dave Todd who in all fairness always makes me laugh. ;D

Although I am (not very!) young and (probably not!) naive, I was wondering much the same myself....... what is TOADS???!!! :o ???
Maybe you should have just "frog-marched" them out of there and got on with your match Jock..... ::) :-X ;)

Toads is a very old game played mainly in East Sussex
Metal disks are thrown at a box with a sloping lead covered top with a hole in. 1 point on the top 2 in the hole, I think. A darts throw is usual. It is in the Black Horse and the Laughing Fish. I think that covers the outline, if I am wrong someone correct me. I used to play 35 Years ago
At least in the Fish Toads is in another room
