You paint a lovely picture Griddy. I love New Hampshire in the autumn. The colours are incredible.

One of, if not the best clearance of the tournament.
It was soo good. I rewound it immediately and watched it again. That delicate cannon to split the last two reds. This guy is so good. Re-re-wind

They're apparently teenage girls. Maybe I should've been the one knocking on their doors.
Maybe you should have, Mr Savile.

What is 'knockdown ginger'?
It sounds like a game where you have to push over Steve Davis.

There's a bunch of teenage girls beating up Steve Davis in this hotel. I went to help him, but he looked like he was enjoying it...
No, it's basically knocking on people's doors and running off. People were moaning about it Saturday, and I could hear them doing it and laughing from the next room.

Ah yes. Never heard it called that before. Played it a lot as a kid, and recently in a hotel (as a big kid.)
Must be a southern name....

Never heard it called that, but as you mention it, that's a more logical name.

Hasn't been as vivid this autumn. No freezing temps thus far. Still nice though!
