Another newbie, Berkshire

[dash rendar]

Hi all. Another newbie here.

My name's Darren and I live in Bracknell, Berkshire.

I haven't played snooker for several years... not since I was a student. Back in those days, I was pretty good at pool, but struggled to get more than a 20-ish break in snooker. I imagine that kind of break around here probably counts as "woeful".

Anyway, I've decided to try my hand at the game again. I don't really know where to start, and I don't have any friends that play snooker. But I'll pop along to the local hall, maybe once a week, force the missus to come with me (poor her!), and see what happens...

Any tips welcome! (No pun intended. I'm sure you get that 'round here a lot...)

Oh... I forget to mention...

I've just bought a Peradon Oxford cue. It hasn't arrived yet. I'm hoping you guys aren't going to tell me it's rubbish. There seem to be mixed reviews of Peradon here. If only I had stumbled across this board first!

Welcome mate, and if you play well with a cue it doesnt really matter what other people think of it, but usually the more you pay the better quality you get. As ive said on your other posting on the mastercue thread i love your avatar - awesome

I mucka , i cant imagine anyone saying that about your cue , there again do pigs s*** ? theiy are a picky lot here , especially one member cant tell you his username , but it starts with f ends with e has five letter and the third letter is a vowel , sorry muck if i could tell you his name i would .



Yes it is a pity you had,nt visited here before you bought , as the census of opinion is that you could have done better for the money .

Saying that as long as your happy with it thats all that counts , you could have a really nice expensive cue but if it does,nt suit you then you wont have no looks on it .

Best of luck with your cue mucka , and keep an eye on that flame ,

oops slipped up

He he. Thanks.

Welcome mate...
you will get a big helping paw from many good, knowledgeable people of the forum.
Theory, practice, players, history, and so much more.
But, word up. It's about your cat. I have a cat too.
I know he could easily go Taxi Driver on anyone [ me ] who denies him whatever
he wants whenever he wants it. So my advice is to steer him in a completely different direction.
One that seems to go paw in paw with boyz n der toyez... let him chill with some dvds.
He''ll be so tired he won't even be able to make a fist let alone pick up one of those badboys.
