It's come up on other word games, like Quordle. I hadn't heard of it before that either.

Quote from: Alex on Yesterday at 08:54:34 PMI've never been interested in snooker, my Mum was though  and I remember the name Jimmy White, he must be knocking on now.

He is, late 60s and he hasn't aged well!  And klondike's right about him and Higgins.

I think he was a mate of Alex Hurricane Higgins. I remember my son said he'd met the pair of them in town when they were playing here once. At least those are the names I recall. That would make it late 80s

It was wonderfully done  .

And me!!
Superb tribute 👌 👏 👍

It's Friday again,  doesn't time fly
Used to be fish in times gone by
Now the chippy is one helluva price 
And now they all sell curry & rice
Gone are the old days, and it makes me sigh.



Bertie felt sleepy so went off to bed

I shed some tears .
It was wonderfully done  .

To my surprise,  I felt quite emotional at the end of that lovely tribute tonight.  
When everyone sang Happy Birthday,  and then he spoke the words to What a Wonderful World . . . .

I agree with you Muddy,  he looks really great for 100.  

Quote from: Alex on Yesterday at 08:13:33 PM I don't drink very much Scrumps, I used to but not anymore.    I rang surgery again yesterday, they've no record of my Echocardiogram      they're looking into it

Alex,  that is terrible!     
I wonder if your results never got sent to the GP,   or whether they have got lost at the GP surgery?
Good job you phoned up!

I hope it all turns out well in the end.  

The country is going down the toilet, like I would never have thought possible in all my years.
