    Anyway I'm off to polish my cue - it's a bit sticky.

    Ditto - it assists with potting the pink

    Made 49 break once, very annoyed not to get to 50......

    Actually, way back when, I worked in a snooker club. Great job, as a young lad, worked 3x 13hr shifts per week and had 4 days off, and although that sounds like a long day, the place was pretty quiet in office hours. Plenty of pool playing ensued......

    Anyone else play or used to, and cares to admit their average/best breaks? Being a nerd, I was wondering whether there are any good apps to help practice - recommendations?

    Only ever played when pi**ed so highest break must have been somewhere around 147

    I have been meaning to join the local one for a while, used to be a member of one a few years ago as it was a great day time hang out when benched, hire a table for a few hours so you could chase balls around, drink a few pints then feel like Dracula when you stepped outside into the sun.

    I am better at Pool than snooker. Think my best break is around 35.
