Derek beat dom
Delboy with his arm in a cast has found some form lets hope it can stay in the cast all season 😉

Boball beat dilly
Dilly off on 2700 i came back with 4700 with a woeful split shot. Dilly balls back got to 6k and then kept playing round back of table with 10 seconds till bar left an easy shot by the 30 but mis judged and lost his break so boball manages the win

Cock Utd 2 HHUSC B 3

Sam Hall 1380 Paul Jobbins 3020
David Croft 2010 Darrell Skinner 540
Kevin Stevens 2870 Iang 1820
Dave Tiffin 1750 Steve King 1800
Huw Lincoln 1430 John Lear 2690

This went to the last game with Steve potting the last ball in the 200 to nick it from Dave, John Lear played really well in the 5th.
Good night and plenty of food to keep us going.

CKRBL 2 BHCC 3

Lynne M-Robb 1860 Nick 950
Neil Burchell 2680 Ros 3410
Andy F-Wright 2670 Neil 1930
Paul M-Robb 1770 Trevor 2450
Peter Harris 940 Spud 2220

First game bizarre, no scores on the board at 8 minutes (Lynne had a few hundred, but BP'd) Lynne gradually got going, Nick never did.
Neil H very unlucky against Andy, he had just overtaken Andy by a few hundred when he left a ball awkward just to the inside of the 30 pocket. He clipped it with a very fine contact and the cue ball flew back to take out a peg.
Splendid effort from Trevor, who potted steadily at the back of the table.

Nice friendly evening at the club. Hope Ted recovers from his badly cut thumb soon. We were all relieved that apple pie was not part of the refreshments of offer!

Finally played tonight (30/11/17) following postponements by each side.........

Plough 2, Windmill Z 3
(in order played)
Jan 3160, Jim 5260 (Jan in command for most of the game but Foxy taking it with his final visit)
Chase 5380, Mick 540 (Mick unlucky to lose a well-crafted 2k opener, Chase went from strength to strength)
Dave 3350, Clive 1760 (I lost scores on both my first visits, couldn't get 'em back after that, Dave steady througout)
Ric 1010, Graham 6630 (Ric 4-timed his 1.5k opener, then always struggling after Graham's 4k reply)
Richard 2000, Johnny 2380 (Johnny defending a 1.5k lead for most of the game, bar went at wrong time for Richard)

Competitive match against sporting opponents, edge of the seat stuff. Johnny Aceed our hero for the second night running.
Good to welcome Mick back, and to learn that Dave's eye ops have been successful. We missed Geoff though, still struggling with back problem.
Good savoury spread with sauces, tommos choice being sausage rolls dipped in English mustard.
