Its a great game. My granddad schooled me. I was a pin setter at a 5 pin bowling alley. He would take us to play. 8 ball kind of took over. Bar tables the size of a litter box. I'm thankful my mom steered me to learn how to swim and that my granddad taught me how to play shape.
Yep I remember Cliff Thorburn, exceedingly good player and Kirk Stevens two excellent players,
pot black the good old days, I must admit I really enjoyed that game 9 all the final frame brilliant
back in love with snooker.
