Just signed up for the pool team

Yes, pool, not polo. Go me. :)

I looked longingly at the signup lists for more active pursuits, but arthritis fears stopped play. I think someone had their eye on me for women's rugby (by size alone I'd be frightening!), but I avoided it. Still, pool is better than nothing. I might not be up to competetive standard, but I did manage to win a 3 against 1 game the other day against [livejournal.com profile] doseybat, [livejournal.com profile] galliana and [livejournal.com profile] panzerpenguin. :-) I should say that most of them needed to have the rules explained from scratch, so my victory, enjoyable as it was, does need to be seen in some kind of perspective.

One of the pockets eats balls, the cloth is ripped in at least a holf dozen places, there are no markings on the cloth, the table isn't level, some of the pockets have indentations in front of them that like to attract the balls, etc. Really bad, but like I said, free. :-)
