The Sussex Oak, Warnham, didn`t have a bar billiard table about a month ago, when I was last in there. But it does have a fine selection of real ales, 4 regular and 4 guest. 8-) And they do have beer festivals as well. 8-) Well worth a visit. 8-) 8-)

Quoted from another thread on table investigations in Surrey: ...and the Cricketers Ockley might make for a nice weekend visit the next time that wifey and I are at a loose end. 8-) Margo and I made the effort on the way to the match tonight - and were pleased that we did, what a friendly reception ! I was able to inspect the chimney piece that the legendary Ollie Reed climbed, and apparently there is an alcove up there which he hid in for some time before emerging covered in soot and scaring the wits out of the barmaid. Oh the table - yes they have one, a light wood Supreme about 4 years old. It doesn't get played as much as when first installed, but it's privately owned and in a good position where it could be played comfortably. Anyone looking for a new venue to try should seek this one out - well worth a visit. 8-) The Malt Shovel (formerly Michell Arms) in Horsham now has a table again. Refer to Horsham board for a report on our visit. John Tidy also informed me last night that there is once more a table in the White Hart, Cranleigh.

Last night followed up a lead provided by the normally reliable Bryan S of Tunny Wells: a mate of his recently moved to Slinfold and claimed there was a table in his new local and even provided a picture of it ! Working on the basis that the only pub in Slinfold is the Red Lyon, we visited it last night but no table was in evidence. So more information please, Bryan.

Spoke to Bryan yesterday, and he reckons the village is Billingshurst and the pub none other than ... the Railway ! He went on to say that his mate reckoned the old rather difficult table has been taken away and replaced with a new one !

According to Steve Eely there is now a table in:
CAT & CANARY, UPPER STATION ROAD, HENFIELD BN5 9PJ
It's a non-standard table (supplied by the pub chain no doubt) but seems to be the 'correct width'. Playable although the break "needs right hand side". Has mushrooms rather than pins. Usual problem with tables of this ilk: no proper D, just a semi-circle drawn and a big crater for the cue ball to sit in.

INN ON THE GREEN (NON-LEAGUE) STANE STREET, OCKLEY, SURREY RH5 5TD Could be some interest in Billingshurst League circles: Ockley is close to Capel, Oakwood Hill and Ewhurst, all of which have had bar billiards in the past. Handy too for Cranleigh.

Margo and I were on our way to Leith Hill and paid a lunchtime visit to the Inn On The Green.....
Charming pub, very spacious, friendly welcome, table in a good position. Played a couple of games, table has a nice pace to it and is very straight, a pleasure to play on.
Lauren would like a team and already has one friendly arranged for 4th June. I would also like to bring a team over from Crawley for a pre-season friendly. I left contact details for both the Horsham and Billingshurst leagues.
I do hope that things take off here......give it a try, folks you'll like it !
