Not so great when it's blowing a hoolie and pissing down with rain! But yes, it's lovely when the weather is good!

Laugh react for this little dig at Arsenal Congrats @Dying Probably, nice way to steal victory! I'm happy with a top ten position, but I confidently predict I will fall back to "Meh" at best in 2024. Thanks for running again, @An Fear Beag - always an enjoyable pool to play.

Yep all the topics in the forum are listed in the order of the most recent posts. So this post will bump this thread to the top of the forum (which will probably annoy someone as it's not an update )

@Wormfarmer I was about to post that I'd got a tac with Glynis but on checking the rules (to confirm the correct terminology!) I noticed that you'd spotted it and edited your previous post , but that doesn't bring the topic back up the list in the forum - would you mind making a new post as well when you do an update?

That's very impressive, well played Tracy.

Ah, the old "most improved" award - meaning you're still shit, but not as shit as you were
