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 doseybat, galliana and 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.

Ah, pool. That game I'm really Not Very Good at. Although being not very good at it does need a bit of perspective: I'm continually Slightly Less Good at pool than Tom is, and we've been playing about 3 games a night for 3 months. Not Very Good hasn't been calibrated against people other than Tom for quite a long time...

(Mumble mumble come to my pub and play pool with me. And doseybat bring me my Preacher back because my new housemate wants to read it - he's already read the Ennis and Dillon episodes of Hellblazer...)
