    Fair enough. It seems the penny has dropped and practice is now meaningful and not just rolling easy reds in.

      I completed this twice today. I had loads when I finished bad on the black and failed to pot it.

      I also tried potting a red and then a black to get good position on clearing the colours and once again fell foul of the final black. Grrrgggghhhhhh.

        What did you complete mate? The bonus challenge? Or cleared the colours again?

          I cleared the colours twice.

          I also did the bonus challenge. Cleared the first set. Set up again. Cleared and then missed the final black.

          I also did a red to black to yellow and cleared the colours down to the final black. Which I missed again. Doh!

                    I am lucky in one respect because I have a beautiful room with a fantastic steel block table but on the other hand I live in the country so not many matches. You guys can go down to the local club and get a game. That's why these challenges are exactly what I needed. When you practice day in day out with no matches it is very easy to get banging balls around but thanks to Ted I am on a mission when I get to the table. I will be back home soon.

                      It's great. You're inspiring me and I'm hopefully doing the same to you. Good stuff Les.

                        • Well I never got to my table as of yet. I come home with a brain wave to build a pull out drawer for my Tournament Triangle like the ones they have on the Star tables at Workd Snooker events. I had a couple photos to go buy. Finished stained and already fastened at the end of my table, just have to wipe it down with some French Polish tomorrow. I should get an hour of practice in tonight and lots of practice tomorrow.
                          Next thing you guys will ask for a photo so I thought I might as well put a couple up....

                          • Finally a chance to practice, here is my latest, once through then missed the green. While it was uploading I ran through to the pink. I will keep trying. I removed the wrong video so I will have to keep trying. Hope to be back with one soon. Found it...LOL

                            • Okay here is another one this time to the pink second time around. Bad Blue left me a tough Pink. Where did everyone go. I feel like no one is watching.

                              • I'm watching Les!
                                Shame about the last pink because you had good position on the black.
                                Did you put my "1" up ?
