There was a brilliant atmosphere too, wasn't there? The thing I enjoyed the most was hearing Pro9'ers meeting each other and then sharing their Pro9 user names and then "regreeting" each other as if they were old friends. I did that a couple of times at the weekend too!

i remember when i was about to go back to playing on the challenege tour and i was persuaded to take up 9ball and its the best thing i have ever did!!! club9 has did more for me in 6months than anyone has ever did for me in snooker in 10 years!!! the future of cue sports is pool!!! theres no arguing that!!! snooker in my eyes is a quickly fading sport!!

Paddy, remember the days of travelling to Jersey to play in European U-21 Snooker, Isle of Wight etc for Northern Ireland and we had to pay our own way at the age of 17???
And it was never as entertaining or exciting as the EPT and im saying that having been beat in the first round of both events.
When you meet the likes of big Mark, Daryl, Daz and BDK, you know that people really want to please all involved and not just the 'select' few.
Long may it continue my friends!!

Hi again..
Back in holland after having to wait for ages for my plane!!!
Just wanted to thank all of you for making my weekend...
Sorry for the people that had to listing to me trying to make a conversation... I was knackered!
I've enjoyed the matches, great to see some people back again...
There are some things i would have done differently but some things i would never have thought of!
But i'll put it all down in a mail to Daryl...
Great to see how it was done in the UK.. A whole different atmosphere than in holland but still great!
see you all soon again! Probably sooner then you'd think!
