Reds and Yellows...

As most of you know: I've always played American Pool...
I don't get the Reds and yellows game..
Too many different rules dependant on which night/pub/country/opponent you play...
But..
I've been asked to go on the reserve list for the pool team for Rileys Barnsley for the Wednesday night league...
I said yes: it's my own fault! I know...
Had to play a match about 3 weeks ago for the first time..
Don't forget: I never play english pool... I even hardly play American anymore due to the lack of time!
Lost against apparently the best player in their team (The Great Dane in shafton)
Did manage to pot 4 balls!!

Yesterday I had to play again... And they put me on last!!
And off course: my luck: 3 all...
My game was the decider!
To make a long story a bit shorter...
I had a shot on the 8 while the opponent had 5 balls left, couldn't pot it anywhere so tried for an impossible bank.. Missed it and he cleared the table..
SO I LOST AGAIN..
But i don't mind.. Was really chuffed I had a shot on the black...
Not bad for a girl that doesn't even know the rules!!

Next week I'm off to Croatia for the Korlea Zagreb Open!
Gonna enjoy the rest of my day off and see ya soon...

PS Don't know if i mentioned it before? I've got a Blackberry now and I love it!!!!
Just found some software to use MSN Messenger on it!! Facebook has been on there for a while!
I LOVE IT!! O don't ever want to go back to a normal phone...

See ya soon!

Love

Yes I'm sooooo looking forward to this!!!
Am a bit nervous as I can't speak the language but I should be OK... Last time I was there it went fine... Just a shame Ana is not gonna be there during the tournament...
So: I need some familiar faces to be there!

Hope to see you there!
