[Q]

**edit**
I've just been told that the landlord is having the table removed this week, there are a number of locals who use it, they are now looking for another table to play within an hours drive of Andover, or perhaps collectively buy their own table and house it privately.

I've just had a new member join the Facebook group, they play at The Oak, Smannell, Andover, Hampshire, SP11 6JJ

The Oak

Searching through their details I've found this photo from 2 years ago

I can also confirm that there is still a table in ye olde bell and steelyard in Woodbridge but it totally unplayable, the cloth has more holes and rips in it than my socks. Plus it's another supreme

I was back at ye olde bell and steelyard today and their table is no more, it has been removed from the pub and now laying in pieces in a shed waiting to be collected by sx leisure. The slate is in very good condition but that's about it, the quality mdf used to build the table has seen better days and to be honest as it's a supreme table it looks beyond repair

if it has a slate dave, please save the slate. I'd come down for it if you can get it saved. I didn't think Supremes had a slate and were all MDF?

cheers!

[Q]

I suggested a few Hampshire venues to my facebook enquiry:

Cricketers Arms in Tangley
Wyke Down Country Pub & Restaurant
The Swan in Barton Stacey.
and Watership Down in Whitchurch

She has contacted ALL of the above, unfortunately the Cricketers has closed down and the other 3 no longer have tables, I'm about to suggest the next nearest few.

[tommo III]

Hi Chris,
Please action four Hampshire deletions above as advised by Q.

Also, some Jersey changes for you:
Remove Goose (JE3 7BA) and Trinity Arms (JE3 5JX)

Add the following:
SARUM HOTEL (3-PIN, NON-LEAGUE) 19-21 ST JOHNS ROAD, ST HELIER JE2 3LD

Cheers,

Hi mate, the supreme of supreme tables had slate beds. As I said the table is sitting in a shed waiting to be collected by sx leisure, I should be back at the pub in a month or so, if the table is still there I'll offer to get rid of it for him and if that fails I will ask him how much he wants for it

Can be used for either now Taffy owns them.
He's attempting to foster interest in 4-Pin in the Cambridge area.
However he's said if Cambs 3-Pin League approach him with a request to use one of his tables for League play, fine by him.
Until such time, it counts as 4-Pin.

At the present time there is not a table in the Alexandra, Lyndhurst Road, Worthing as the leaseholder has asked that it is removed despite the pub managers happy to have us there.

Thanks, TJ
We'll keep that one 'in limbo' for present in case there is a change of heart over the bar billiards.
Similarly the Henty Arms while refurbishments take place.
Was there a problem too with the Vine ?

Hi Chris,
Please add another new Norfolk one (4-Pin, Non-league):

Believe the table has come out of the Vine, will confirm
