Getting Rid of Sidd... you wish !
Hello guys:
Happy holiday season.
OK now I went in for a few frames last Friday. Yes finally I went in after 5 months. My snooker mates were not letting me go like that. I once decided to sell my cue (Peradon Sandringham) so that I don't have a reason to play but my mates convinced me against the idea and today I am thankful to them. They have been really naughty in this regard. They have been missing me and have been trying to persuade me to join again. Texting and calling with updates on what is going on in the club and then one of them posted the Selby 147 at the UK 2013. When I saw that including the brown to blue shot, something warmed me up... Then I watched the final, cleaned my cue and glasses properly and went in thinking I shall play as usual and make a great performance.
I played like a kid who is holding the cue for the first time hahaha. the table seemed longer than normal, my own cue seemed thinner, colder, longer and even heavier than it really used to feel like. But I did manage a break of 17 in the third frame LOL
But the best thing was that I enjoyed myself perhaps because I had no pressure of missing, not making breaks, losing etc because I knew I wont be able to play well. So i enjoyed like anything. My back hurt, I did not know where was my feet going the elbow nothing but still that did not bother me and I enjoyed. I did play a few proper strokes and my mates said 'He has not lost it yet, its just his dying memory that is waking up slowly'
Last but not the least, i did not expect this at all but the greatest surprise was that I could not find my line. Amazing isn't it? I stood before the CB and imagined that thin line from the pocket to the BOB and wow it wasnt there anymore ... I particularly found it hard to imagine the line, which used to be automatically there for me, and on thin cuts in to middle, wow I kept imagining it and it kept deceiving me.. It just wasnt there you know.
I shall go this friday too... lets see
I think I still need to get my grip right and loose hahahahha here I go again eh
My daughter is doing fine, she is a fighter so it seems and is fighting well I think I was too overwhelmed in the beginning and now I ma getting a hang of it. Things are pretty much ok these days and I am preparing a come back
Merry Christmas and a happy new year in advance.
Warmest regards,
Sidd.
