Now you're bragging Les

Terry

LOL I figured you would like that one. Okay I will give you a plug, your table is still much quicker then mine.

[Terrence]

Quality indeed!

I'd be bragging too if I had a table like that!

When I convince my wife a snooker table is way better than having a plain old family room in the basement, then I'll have a table... Maybe... One day... Likely not. She wins too often I tell ya.

Anyhow, I'll stick to looking for a new cue in the meantime - one step at a time.

Cheers

What are you looking for in a cue. Terry has some real nice ones at his teaching facility. Nice thing is you can try them out.
On another note when do you usually play? I can normally squeeze in a few games in the afternoon on the odd weekday.

I'm looking at GBL right now. Want something handmade, nice but classic. Personally not much of a fan of colour(s) in a cue. I'm not in a huge rush, so I'm willing to take some time to look around.

As for play time. It's a hit and miss, half the time I spend in the air traveling the other half working wherever I land so when I do have time here in Ontario, it would be a morning/afternoon thing on a weekend. I hadn't played in about 3 years up until about a month ago and since then I've been in every weekend on both days for a few hours straight. Sometimes with someone to play - other times just practicing.

We should try to get something going in the near future if you up for it. I wouldn't mind playing someone new, and just talking the game alone is fun stuff.

Good Morning Terrance, that sounds great. With my work I can normally skip out for some snooker in the afternoon. GBL awesome cues, I ordered a GBL 3/4 Ebony butt before Christmas and then I ordered a 1pc GBL with same specs after Christmas. Stu at Green Baize is great to deal with. I had my cue in my hand about 5 days after I ordered it and that was with alterations. You can email me at les.edwards@shaw.ca if you are looking for a game.
