Phil.Taylor Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Sadly the Barge Inn closed a while back - shame - lovely spot - used to be great to warm up by the fireside with a pint after a slope session Phil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yes, I forgot ... Do you remember Simon Hall ? He used to work in the pub (no longer with us ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil.Taylor Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Simon was before my time on the F3F circuit - 2007 onwards & still trying to get round the corners... Phil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oipigface Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 All those of you who, like me, struggle to make progress in their chosen discipline, will want to applaud the success of David Gilbert. After 18 years as a professional snooker player with little to show for it, he will appear later today in the semis of the World Championship. His pay check will be in 6 figures. An inspiration. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kikapu Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Kyren Wilson isn't doing bad either. He had to supplement his income by driving taxis for a while. Neither Wilson or Gilbert are spring chickens by any means so it's good to see hard work, good coaching, persistence and resilience paying dividends. Good for them.

wookman Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Did anybody watch the football last night? I was behind the sofa for the last ten minutes! What a night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kikapu Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Just watched the highlights this morning, wookman. Another astounding match and result. My experience of cup games is that the final is never as exciting as the semis. Let's hope that's not the case this time around as these two semi-finals have been brilliant.

Phil.Taylor Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 New slope for me this evening - Cherhill White Horse - near Calne Wilts - doesnt look much from the main road - A4 - but after a stiff 15 min steep hike up - its a lovely spot! - series of steep bowls from NW through N to NE. Excellent pub nearby too Phil. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wookman Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 It was party time in Liverpool last night! The atmosphere on Merseyside was brilliant, a sea of red flags and scarves. Predictably enough neither team turned up the way they did for the second legs of the semis, but that was no great surprise. Question is did Mane see the arm and play for the penalty? Sorry Pete.
