What was he looking back at that time?

Yes I know Scholten, very fine player in his day . I hadn't heard of Nieuwlaat though. Well that must have been a fun journey home with the driver outshining Scholten

Wow! Did he mean to say that out loud? Who are your commentators by the way?

What a finish, a 156 checkout for a check up with the Power

She looks like Ted Hankey's Mom

Hard to believe. But then again we have to believe that Dean Winstanley is 35 . I still remember when he was in his 20s and he looked 50

Oh don't be so anal about it

That was a classic!! Good enough to grace any stage of the World Championship. Both players have my respect

This is incredible

Fantastic game so far, great quality!

Great first set by van den Bergh.... terrible nickname by the way

Hoping for Reyes win now

Much better choice than many previous years. But it won't matter unless they give him a good song.

Agree with those picks too. Hopefully they have a TV screen with Sly sports in the hospital ward where I am visiting but I somehow doubt that Only option is to record it and catch up.

And Irish interest in the World Championships is over already But thankfully that is not were my interest ends . Up next, Anderson vs "Frosty the Throwman"

It didn't take long for the senseless Yaya / Kolo Touré chant to make an appearance Now awaiting the obligatory "Na na na na na na na na na na na.... Van der Voort, van der Voort, Vincent van der Voort"

Hey, the Viking commands some respect

The World darts are here meaning that it's officially Christmas!!

Sure, that sounds like a good solution. Maybe, as suggested, I will make the other two heats regional based to ensure different regions are represented in the final. Heat 2 ( and CRO/POL) Heat 3 ( and CRO/POL) So at least one African nation and one American nation would be guaranteed a place in the final and the former hosts have a slightly harder route to the final, with only one advancing.

Ok, so bidding deadline day has arrived and it's now time to close the bidding window for the Totallympics Open International Song Contest 2017. So here are the 9 nations that will contend for the right to host the contest: TISC Open 2017 - Host Candidates: Official Bids: Algeria Canada Croatia Mexico New Zealand Poland Serbia Tunisia United States I don't think there has been any agreement about how to conduct the bidding contest so by default we will have to revert to a game of luck. As many users suggested already, having 9 users from different parts of the world online at once might be tricky so probably better to break it down into heats somehow. How the hell to conduct this? I don't know yet, I'm still open to suggestions (seriously, please ). Maybe three heats of three nations, one nation advancing to the final from each and one other lucky loser making a final of 4 nations?

I've always loved this song since I first heard it....

Ok, so I will close the bidding window on Wednesday 14th December. Further details will be announced on how the selection process will take place after that

I'd take that with a very large pinch of salt

Beautiful new Christmas song..... Picture This - This Christmas
