    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

    • Wow! An advanced Super-Picture-Quiz! I see the benefits of this new board already!

      Unfortunately, as I can't fly (despite several attempts) I couldn't possibly hazzard a guess! I recognise 1 and 3 and thats about it!

        We still could have had this question on the BBC board with The Statman's superlative ASCII drawing skills.
        "If anybody can knock these three balls in, this man can."
        David Taylor, 11 January 1982, as Steve Davis prepared to pot the blue, in making the first 147 break on television.

          OK I'll tell you you have 9 out of 10. Well done. You can have half a point and the remaining half will go to the first person with a 10 out of 10 answer.

                                I found the list of snooker players birthdays, then looked to see which were top 16 who share.
