[World Snooker Championship + top 10 favourite players]

Good to see Jimmy top of the tree..great player good bloke too..my best friend loved Alex Higgins and we frequented the snooker halls of Essex and south east London during our teens and early 20's..i was better than him at pool he was better at snooker often notching a century break..my all time best is a 79 clearance.

[What Have We Been Up To?]

I live 2000 miles from the sea so beach forecast is no use to me!

[We Did It!]

there's not enough florence's or cynthia's in the world...well done for not spelling melissa with a 'y'..congrats

[First "proper" Week At Uni]

Ah the joys of Uni life..or polytechnic in my case..i left in 1991 (1987-91).. i only ever remember havin one 9 am start and that was on a monday..wednesday was a free day because i played for the 1st team at football in the university leagues.

Heres a tip if you want that was given to me before i started and was true for me...the people you meet in your first week are the people you spend the next four years trying to avoid!..lol

Also if your next four years are anything like mine they will be probably some of the best times of your life..mind you i did spend a lot more time in the bar and on the football pitch than i did in lectures. You make some great lifelong friends and meet some interesting people.

Hope you have as much fun as i did..good luck!
