So glad I got back into the snooker, these semi's are fantastic :okay:

Snooker is competitive?

I've been hooked on snooker since the days of Kirk Stevens in his white suit - I wasn't even a teenager yet... :blush:

I was an active viewer from c1989 - 2006 and gradually dwindled away after that.

I suppose the main reason had nothing to do with snooker itself but I was very heavy and unfit at that point and a desire to improve my lifestyle meant that I got back into cycling and then fettling old bikes and then didn't really have time to watch snooker any more. A misspent adulthood you might say!

To be fair, while I do follow the sport, I don't watch that much outside of the WC, the UK and the Masters. But when those are on, I do tend to, erm, binge watch. :blush:

I remember when I used to basically go into shutdown when the WC was on and sit glued to the TV.

I don't think I could do that any more tbh. Also I don't have a TV again now that I am able to live in my own flat again.

I cannot stress how crappie NCN 1 is going through Sittingbourne. I had to resort to OS maps and compass. Signage vandalism, rubbish and mental drivers. Next time I will either get the train straight through or use the A2 to bypass it. Utter sh*te. No offence if any CC's live there, if you do is there a less hazardous way through?

You've missed a brilliant tournament this year. There has been some exceptional snooker played. I'm hope for a Ronnie / Mark Williams final. I want Ronnie to win it, but Mark would be a deserving winning, he has been unbelievable.
