They have some ridiculous spotlights above them which makes it very difficult to see as the lighting is bad. The number of players I saw missing simple half ball cuts was crazy, simply because you couldnt focus on the edge of a ball when playing through the shadows. Two tables had the middle spotlight missing and a couple have lights that point away from the table !

Luckily I had my second match on one of the better lit areas so I got a good view of Sean Watson dishing me up two frames in a row.

Thats really no good at all is it.. The problem I have at the bell (apart from the slightly honeypotty lighting) is you never quite know how hard to hit it. one minute a slow roll rolls off and u give two, so you hit the next one a bit harder and it looks like you clobbered it.. ah well, a bargain at £1.20 a pop(!)

being beaten by someone who dishes you twice is some comfort at least it wasnt the rubbish tables to blame. well done sean.
