The Life and Adventures of Lenny, a Smurf.

Mildert/Grey formal tonight - nice food. Soup to begin, a main course of lamb, and a nice ice-cream thing covered in white chocolate for dessert.

Then I played Snooker for a couple of hours. No, I didn't play a few games in two hours, rather I took two hours to play one game.

Nice title.

...What's Snooker?

Think spin the bottle, but with a teapot.

Bloody English language...

You seriously don't know what Snooker is? !

It's like Pool, but bigger, and different. I think it's one of the best sports there is.

One of the World's best is Ronnie O'Sullivan, and this is his maximum break from the 2008 World Championship:



You pot a red, then a colour, until all the reds are gone. Then you pot the colours in order (Y, G, Br, Bl, P, Bl).

That's interesting that all your universities are buildings spread out in cities. That seems somewhat inefficient. Are there any THAT far apart? Like many kilometers?

Even after reading your rules AND watching the video I'm still not sure what the fuck I just saw.

I'm incredibly surprised that few (if any) of you have not heard of Snooker!

Here's a map of Durham. I've circled my college, and where I have my lectures. And this is the view from one of my windows.



From my college to the P in square E3 it's about a mile - Durham is a fantastically small city (well, the town itself and the University campus. If you take the housing estates outside of the city into account, then it's probably a few times bigger, with a much larger area). The big city campuses like London, or Manchester, can have distances of three or four miles between Halls of Residence and Lecture Rooms/Departments.
