      Congratulations Lindea.

      The answer is 4 I'm pretty sure. There are a number of ways of doing it: King-Fu-Wych-Meo is just one.

      So here is the scoreboard after round 6:

      Pos. . . . . . . . Points . . . . . . Name
      1 . . . . . . . . . . 2 . . . . . . . . Lindea
      2 . . . . . . . . . . 2 . . . . . . . . snookersfun
      3 . . . . . . . . . . 2 . . . . . . . . Mitsuko

      (a reminder that there are no tied positions – when your score increases you go directly to the top of that total.)

      ROUND SEVEN

      ...anyone?

        Yes there are plenty of ways to get 4. I was trying to get 5 but kept ending up 1 or 2 letters short.

          Lindea, I'm sure 5 is probably possible, but I couldn't find it.

          Anyone who can do a 5 over the weekend will get a bonus point!

            ROUND SEVEN

            A player is making a journey. This is the route he takes:

            Turns left into Hendry Street
            Turns left into Doherty Avenue
            Turns right into Small Street
            Turns right into Higgins Street
            Turns right into Davis Street
            Turns right into Ebdon Street
            Turns right into Stevens Street
            Turns right into Wattana Street
            Turns right into Davis Street
            Turns left into Ebdon Street

            The question is: Who is driving, and what determines which way he turns?

                  the player is Shaun Murphy.
                  the streets represent his opponents at the crucible and he turns right when he wins the match and left when he loses.

                    That's got to be it. But the bit that still puzzles me is why Doherty only gets an avenue .

                      Because that match ended in a decider(9-10).

                        Good thinking.

                        Has Doherty been in an awful lot of deciders or is it just me?

                          He has been in alot. In 2004 he played 132 frames in total, the maximum possible is 137!
                          You play a long slow deadweight red to a corner pocket. As it approaches the pocket, a kamikaze woodlouse crawls out from under the cushion and makes its way across the table, conflicting with the path of the red precisely at the point the red gets there. The red, needless to say, veers off course, and the future of the woodlouse is uncertain. - The Statman

                            Ebdon is driving? Dont know who determines though.

                              Congratulations Lindea.

                              The answer is indeed that it is Shaun Murphy's journey, one way for a win, t'other for a loss (Avenue for a decider).

                              So here is the scoreboard after round 7:

                              Pos. . . . . . . . Points . . . . . . Name
                              1 . . . . . . . . . . 3 . . . . . . . . Lindea
                              2 . . . . . . . . . . 2 . . . . . . . . snookersfun
                              3 . . . . . . . . . . 2 . . . . . . . . Mitsuko

                              (a reminder that there are no tied positions – when your score increases you go directly to the top of that total.)

                              ROUND EIGHT

                              As this quiz quickly enters its second month, July 2006. At this rate we'll have done a year by next week!

                              Anyone want to do round eight?

                                Well 24 hours without a new question!

                                I shall throw this one in, nothing to do with snooker!

                                ROUND EIGHT

                                What occurs at 1 o'clock BST this afternoon (2 July), from a British perspective?
