Please, please, please for the love of christ get some decent cues with easily replaceable tips.
When I was in the other week, there were about 5 usable cues and all the rest had been worn down to useless plastic nubs. | |

They seem to do it without being asked, and indeed regardless of whether they have been specifically asked not to, on a regular basis. | |

| Re: the games room
Any reason why the QM can't buy and maintain their own cues? It's not that hard - a few minutes extra work for someone once a week to make sure the tips are ok.
It would be nice if unusable ques were stored behind the bar/elsewhere as well. | |

IIRC its something to do with having to buy and maintain the pool tables as well as the cues etc. Which isn't cost effective apparently. I could be wrong but thats my memory of the thing. | |

If it's a pool table it should have American tips. Snooker tips on a pool cue is foolish.
But darts is band? That's fucking shocking.
Get the electronic one in then.

You know I saw that and though "fuck I'm well buying that"
Then I realised I have a FUCKING DARTBOARD.

The dart in the head incident put my off darts slightly then a few years later the drunken dart in the foot incident swore me off real darts for life. Virtual all the way for me. | |
