I was reminiscing the other day, thinking back to a Christmas when I got one of those "mini" or "executive" snooker tables... And how then it was just a passing toy and I'd have never thought I'd be enjoying the full sized game.
I knew better than to go looking for one, but curiosity killed the cat, and almost got me too... So I looked on eBay and they were all of the kind of (Terrible) quality as the one I'd got.
I then stumbled on one that looked interesting, and at only £2.99 I thought I'd nothing to lose... Came to just under £10 with postage.
Now I'm fully aware it is "gimmick" and cannot compare, in any way, to a real table... But I'm quite taking aback by how "cute" this table is... So I thought I'd upload a few pics
The table... Made out of wood, not plastic (52.4cm x 33.7cm x 6.7cm)! And some bags, too...
The cues... Are actual two piece (78cm)...
Obviously, chalk and a triangle, too...
And, of course, it wouldn't be snooker without a set of balls!
As you can see the scale is terrible...
Obviously not ground breaking but gave me a little smile anyway Sure, I wont be able to really use it... And certainly wont be using it to improve my break But, it seems much more "fun" than all of the other "mini" or "executive" snooker tables I've seen.
... And now I've got my very own table
