I take back some of the mean things I said about modern snooker. The Selby/Higgins match was pretty rivetting and the Robertson/Murphy one has been excellent so far. Even the mosquito... :grin:

the match last night was stopped for about 3 minutes as there was a buzzing in the crucible, believed to be a mosquito

That's OK, lots of pensioners like snooker. Some of the big competitions are sponsored by Saga as they recognise this. Smart marketing. :wink:

When I get my pension, Spender, I shall spend it on a ticket to China to give you a smack :razz:

Anyway, the real reason I'm into snooker again is that I've discovered Rory McLeod. :coool:
