Well, I've certainly cast my vote for K.T.
And I think we all should, using the link given.
Come on, let's put bar billiards on the map !

Had to blink to be certain I wasn't seeing things - Bar Billiards getting genuine recognition. Great stuff.

I have put my vote in and have sent it to friends to vote also !
THought it quite funny that a local Pool player who has been playing for England for over 20 years and has won countless trophies is not on there !!!

Thanks for your nice comments guys. :)
I really am amazed :o to see my name on that list. To be even mentioned in the same breath as Sir Roger Bannister, Sir Mathew Pincent & Tim Henman is incredible. :-[
I had this phone call from a Martin Eastaugh (BBC south) a few weeks ago (who i think had spoken to Charlie Wheeler).
He was asking me all sorts of questions about what i`d done over the last 20 yrs or so, but i never thought for one minute i`d be recognised like this. ???
Oh and i never told him that i`d won the World title 3 times. :-[ I explained to him that the name had changed but it was still the same competition. But you know what the media are like. ::)

It must be a nightmare. Fortunately I don't have to deal with such issues.
In the light of this media coverage I tried to invest in SirKT shares on Sportdaq but there must be an issue with the search engine. I could not find you.
Can you help me rectify this fault?!!!
Also - next time we meet up I will be asking you to sign several photographs - all of which will then be auctioned on ebay.
Not that I want to make money from your name or anything!!

Oooo, I had to go that one bit further, on the 'best of the rest'.
If you click this option a couple of times, you go through to more photo's. If you opt for number 8, you can see KT wearing some sort of hat on his head - unfortunately it wasn't his favourite blue one :( :(
;D

The compliments still come.............
On our way to the garden centre this morning I casually mentioned to margo that I was debating whether or not to wear my shorts at Mid Sussex Finals Night this Wednesday should the weather justify it. "If I'm honest", she said, "You could do with losing a bit of weight as they don't look quite right on you. Now Kevin Tunstall, that's how a pair of shorts should be worn !"

Did you hear the one about the barbilliard player who went to heaven? St Peter welcomed him into a massive auditorium, where in the centre in a big white light was a player playing bar billiards, he was brilliant, never missed a shot. 'That looks like Kevin Tunstall!!' said the player. No said St Peter, It's God!! he just thinks he's Kevin Tunstall!
quote from BBC Oxford
You should write stories ;D Well done though KT 14% of the voters went in your favour! |
