I was really looking forward to this as I thought I stood a good chance in the singles, but after making the journey all the way from Yorkshire to be there, I ended up being beaten by Steph in the first round 3-1! I had taken the first frame but Steph played some excellent attacking safety and was clearing up well, whereas I was missing pots I would usually knock in for fun! Steph went on to take the title after playing well all day!
I started on the beer then.... and failed to pull any kind of performance out in the doubles which we lost 3-0, and felt bad for my partner Donna who played well.
The mixed went no better... in fact I can only remember having one shot in the match where I nearly went in off... and my partner Ferret wasn't much use either as he was in a worse state than me! We lost 3-0!
Oh well, the day itself was a good laugh so all was not lost! Maybe next year.....!!
