At last we have a venue for this year`s International in Jersey on February 7th ;D

It will be the Ambassador hotel, Cast rd JE2 6SB. It is about a mile further down the coast from the De Normandie.
Rooms are £26 B & B per person, per night.
Phone number 01534 724455 (quote Bar Billiards).

There have been two withdrawals so far, Phil Collins from the Mens team and Denise Wills from the Ladies. This brings in Mark Brewster and Jenny Abbott to their respective squads.

Kevin, I was told Gary Johnson was unable to play, so maybe you should contact him so the next in line can be informed.


Keith.

More changes to the Men`s team i`m sorry to say.
Confirmation that Gary Johnson isn`t available which brings Geoff Jukes into the side.
Mark Brewster isn`t available to play so Richard Wooton now wins his first England cap. Congratulations.

It now seems that Leon Beer will be away on holiday when the International takes place. As we didn`t name anymore reserves, I spoke on the phone to Nigel & Milko (two other selectors) and we have decided that Dennis Atkins will take the eleventh place.
The reserves, if they wish to travel, are Chris Tupper & Curt Driver.
